Growing too fast!

In a few weeks, our family will grow by 1, and we will welcome our baby boy into our crazy household :). It seems like just yesterday we were bringing our girls home for the first time, and now they're toddlers, approaching school faster than I can believe. My husband constantly says that they will be the best big sisters ever, and I'd have to agree - they're ecstatic for a baby brother!

I wish I could slow time down sometimes; they've definitely grown way too fast for me. It's always so special to me to see that while they bicker as sisters often do, they're the best of friends too. I hope they always stay that way. ♥





Lately, Eden's been quite the ham and jumps in front of the camera any chance she gets, while Taimane couldn't be bothered most of the time..lol!

Official Teenager!

HAPPY 13th BIRTHDAY ELIJAH! It's hard to grasp that today, you are an official teenager :). You've grown up so much! On this day, and every day, we hope you know how much you are loved.

Becoming a teenager is a special time, and the years ahead will play a huge part in the man you become someday. Remember to make the most of every challenge, and every opportunity, and great things will always be in store for you. I know you have the potential to become anything you can dream up if you put forth your efforts and try your best - visualize your goals and remember that "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take." We are always behind you, and hope for all the best for you. Make good choices and never forget that you have a family who loves you dearly.

May Heavenly Father bless you with many more birthdays to come. We love you and hope you have an excellent day!

I ♥...

+ breakfast in bed.
+ pre-Valentine's Day dinners at the Crab Pot.
+ delicious dinners made by my hubby - beats having to fight the crowds, and yummier than a restaurant.
(yes - in general, i ♥ food. lol)
+ handmade Valentine's Day cards made by my baby girls, and how their faces light up with smiles and pride at their little pieces of art.
+ flowers when I don't expect it.
+ a day of endless "I Love You's" and "Happy 'ValenTIME's Day!" from my favorite people in the world.

And I'm thankful for...
+ lots and lots of l o v e.

Lucky me, this Valentine's Day :).

Website Updated!

I've had my Tiare Photography website up for a long while, but kept it "under construction" for MONTHS. Trying to catch up on long to-do lists, I finally updated it (I figured maybe I should get my money's worth each month? lol!). Check it out!

Just Because : TIARE TUIOLOSEGA | California

I took these photos last summer and never got around to posting them. My baby sister is the namesake of Tiare Photography :). She is sweet as can be, and I love her beyond all words. As much as she's grown over the years, I don't think I could ever see her as older than 2! She's a great aunty to our girls, and the best little sister ever ♥.

For as long as I can remember, Tiare has been quite the ham for the camera ;)! We had a good time taking a few pictures of her at a park close to my mom's house in California.

Love you baby girl!
