Hi! I’ve been dying to share this news and it’s getting very challenging hiding it, so here we are – Bryan and I are expecting a baby boy late-September! We’re over-the-moon about this news and can’t wait to see Emmett as a big sister, which is crazy to think about because she’s still my little baby. That’s how it’ll be forever in my eyes but I’m excited to see her teach and care for him. YOU’RE WHAT?! We were trying for about 2 months so I was tracking all the good stuff through my Apple Health app. After 2 negative tests in January, I was ready to accept that it…

I can’t begin to tell you how many times people told us “time will fly” when they saw us with our little baby and they certainly weren’t wrong.

Family Photo Sesh… in August?!
Hi y’all! A couple weeks ago Bryan, Emmett and I did a photoshoot with Mandi Thompson Photography in the thick of August (it was so. dang. hot! We had towels on standby to dab and dry ourselves the entire time) and you know what?! We have zero regrets because the pictures are phenomenal! HAIR AND MAKEUP Jeanette and Jackie with Katy Mobile Studio did my hair and makeup before the shoot. I went in with zero inspiration and told Jeanette to do something with a braid (That actually wasn’t even my idea – Mandi actually suggested that with my long hair). She managed to whip up the prettiest hairstyle that held…
