Neglect

I've neglected my blog and photography lately..bad.

My only excuse is that I've been thoroughly enjoying maternity leave and spending time with my precious son, and my sweet daughters who suddenly seem so grown up. Nothing is more rewarding, and I'm savoring every minute I get to spend at home before returning to work, and getting back to the grind. When the time comes, and I have to get back to my old routine, the camera will come out again and take pictures of people and things other than my home and family :). I'm excited - the blog needs a revamp, and my long break has tons of ideas running around in my head.

In the meantime, I'll be neglecting this for a little while longer for these three munchkins who steal my heart every day.

Thank Heaven for Little Boys

I'm happy to announce that my little man is finally here! He's perfect in every way, and once again, I am amazed that I can love this child as much as my other children, when I didn't ever think it was possible to love any one person that much! Our hearts' capacity to love is truly immeasurable. Our baby boy is only 5 days old, and already, I can't imagine what life could've been like without him. He is his sisters' (and parents, of course) pride and joy, and they're thrilled he's here.

His dad gave him his first name, and three middle names after it! Baby Israel was born on April 9th at 9:35 am, and weighed in at a good 8 lbs 12 oz, and measured 21 inches long. Here are a few photos of our newest addition, who melts our hearts every time we set eyes on him!

Thank Heaven for Little Boys :)

And @ 2 days old with his daddy and big sister Eden...

My heart is truly full, and I am SO very thankful for my precious bundle of JOY!

Happy 1st Easter Baby L!

Not long ago, I took some maternity pictures of my best friend. Just a couple of months later, her handsome baby boy is here and precious as ever, celebrating his very first Easter! Love you so much, Baby L!
