Weekend Shoot on Palm Jumeirah

This weekend I got the family together and forced them to do these pictures with me.

Kaiden is an amazing assistant, he shot all the great photos that I was in.

All I had to do was adjust my settings on the rebel t4i and he was on it!

I love these pictures, I only wish we could have gotten one of the 5 of us.

All photos taken in our "back yard".

These are just funny! And also the reason why I did not get that many good pictures with the boys!

Back inside we snapped a couple "behind the scenes".

This weekend was good. Successful photo shoot, good dinner, then I woke up sick.

It was nice because I never sleep in. Ever.

John took over my duties, gave me breakfast in bed and let me sleep it off until I felt good enough to go to the pool.

We also had dinner planned with my friend Frances and her husband, it is always a pleasure hanging out with her.

There have been sand storms here this week and I am wondering if that is why we have all been sick. I don't know how they could relate but maybe?

Looking forward to feeling 100 percent but in the mean time me and my little snuggler will be comforting each other!

Star Wars Birthday Party

It's that time of year for the boys double birthday party!! Since I... I mean they are so into star wars that was the obvious choice of a party theme. It was so cute at the end of the party after the boys opened all their gifts and John says, "Well, what did Mummy and I get you?" They both shrugged. I said, "We got you this beautiful party, and that is your gift." They both hugged us and said thank you without even complaining that we didn't buy them anything, such gracious boys! Then John brought out their bikes and they went crazy!! It was the cutest thing. Happy Birthday to our wonderful boys, Happy 7th and 9th Birthday Ethan and Kaiden!

And the Fun Begins

On Sunday, March 11th, we welcomed our newest family member. Amalia Rachael Emily Benham. It all began Saturday morning. I had signs of labor but we had the Pinewood Derby so I hoped she would wait. And of course, she did. Contractions started coming in very slowly and Mummy and Binx came over. We hung out, and hung out, and hung out and the contractions weren't getting stronger but slowly moving closer together. We all finally took naps then we started hanging out again. Finally at 12am we decided to go to the hospital. 3 cm dilated and I was admitted. Kindle, my bff of course came to the hospital as well. All our biggest supporters were there. Waiting for Baby Getting some well needed rest. Last moments before birth My contractions never got intense before the epidural kicked in, thank goodness. Somehow my left side didn't kick in so I could feel it all on that side, but because I have back labor and I co...

Can't wait to see the professional ones! Waiting for the go ahead It's time!! Everyone ready t...
