Very Valentine

By
I always feel bad for John this time of year.
My birthday then Valentines Day 3 days later.
Somehow every year he makes them both special, I think this year was the best though.  (Except that one time when we went to Jamaica on Valentines Day)

The moment I woke up he says, "Happy Velentines Day, will you be mine?"
I had the biggest smile on my face.  He is always so romantic. 
I walk out into the living room and there are roses, heart biscuits, a gift and heart shaped candles... lit... at 8 in the morning.
How does he do this without me knowing?

The day only got better and better.  

Since I cook every night it was time for a break.
Dubai has the worst beef EVER so I haven't had a good steak in a while and he knew I have been craving it so he took me to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. 
I haven't been there in so long, it felt like we were back in the US again.

I also did my part by getting him and the kids some valentine gifts and decorated the house to set the stage for whatever romantic things he  had planned.  I hate that I have to take it down, so pretty!

Thank you to my romantic hubby for another perfect day.
 Thank you for showing me how much you love me not just on Valentines Day, but every day.

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

By
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.
