Rachael Emily-Baby Naming

The hardest part about having a child for me is finding a name.
I have been dreading the naming process, that is why we started so early.
I didn't get a name for Ethan until I went into labor and was hoping that would not be the case this time.
I am a super organized control freak kind of person so it has been stressing me out.

We decided to go to Barnes and Noble to give it another try. While searching, and hating every name, I re-suggested a name that I have loved for a long time and we decided! Yay! I was SO excited! I still am so excited.
I never would've guessed we would find a name so soon.
For now I will announce the middle names and save her name for her birth announcement. The middle names are Rachael Emily.
Rachael is to honor my lovely sister that passed 8 years ago. She is my heart.
Emily is my little sisters middle name, and she is my everything.
My 2 favorite people balled up into one precious angel, our daughter. =)

Celebrate with a pumpkin spice hot chocolate and a chilly Autumn walk.

We watch a movie with the boys every night. We do seasonal movies, because I am season obsessed. We got to start this season with one of my all time faves, The Corpse Bride.

I cannot watch this movie enough, I'm a hopeless romantic and huge Tim Burton fan, this movie was made for me. Hopefully the boys will let me watch Coraline next, it's such an eerie movie, I really don't like it one bit but can't help myself.

My other favorite thing about fall...

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical. We had quite a bit of time after getting ready, there were so many emotions, so happy I laughed, so happy I cried. I love these photos and am so happy that every moment was captured. Can't wait to see the professional ones! Waiting for the go ahead It's time!! Everyone ready t...

No Rest For The Weary

Yesterday was sweet and sad, and maybe a bit boring. Amalia woke up with a fever and insisted on sleeping right on top of me on and off all day. Even though she was sick, and I did feel a bit cruel and selfish, I pulled out my camera and got to clicking. I simply won't give her a break! But it was worth it. Look how sweet and peaceful she looked only an hour before she threw up on me. She is the prettiest little girl and oh so sweet. I love photographing her. She still has a bit of a temperature today so it seems I am back on "pamper the baby even more than normal" duty. My job is to lay on the couch and be her bed, her comfort, and anything else she may need. And today I will give her a break from her modeling duties. I have the best job in the world. I love my kids.

Long Awaited

Ethan has had the typical "little brother" problems. A huge one being that he has been going to all Kaidens scouting activities for 2 years and couldn't participate. Being the observer of your bigger brother having fun... not so much fun. Then we had the move to Dubai, so what should've been his first year, wasn't. He was so excited and was all smiles at his very first scouting event where he could participate! I can't get over how cute and official he looked in his uniform. He took every belt loop he earned extremely seriously. It's also weird to see Kaiden in his webelo uniform, I always saw it as for the "bigger boys". I guess my little Kaiden is one of the big boys now.
