How We Began...

Millie's Photo Shoot!

While getting ready for Millie's Blessing, I had a grand, last minute idea to have her pictures taken in her blessing gown so I could send out announcements / invitations. I love waiting until the last minute!

It was so much fun! She was so good (honestly, I was a bit surprised) and actually fell asleep so we could do some fun things. Millie is wearing the dress I was blessed in and Trinity was blessed in. We have a little heirloom now that could be passed down. I am so excited to have these pictures to capture her sweet little spirit in time.

She is such a good little "wee" and I am so enjoying this chance to be a "Mom" again. My older kids are so easy now that they seem to take care of themselves. Being thirty and having a newborn has been so peaceful and fulfilling. I am truly blessed.

On March 12, our little one was born! She was 8lb 3oz, much to my surprise. What a healthy little girl! I was able to birth her all natural, with the help of our Hypno-Birthing classes and my wonderful partner, Dave. It was an intense and awesome experience. The jury is still out on whether or not I would do it again though. I think I earned bragging rights on that though!

Millie has such a sweet little spirit and has kept me busy. It's been a long time since we had a little one around. It has been such a blessing!

Aunt Mandy used her awesome photography skills and took some pictures at Millie's one month old mark. Enjoy the pictures of our journey!
