Here we are

Ok - so I had hoped to start blogging back in 2011.  I really wanted to make this a regular "to do" - but here we are 3 years later. 

There has been A LOT that has happened including the addition of Amara to our family.

This photo shoot was taken nearly a month ago.  We now a family of six with an 8, 7, 5 and 3 month old.

I almost did not post this photo because I look at myself and don't love my shape and size, but then decided, this is me, I love my family and want to be able to look back at this family photo and have me included in it. 

I often get really "stressed out" for family photos, and this time was no different, but I am learning that no matter what when I see the photos at the end of the session - This is us, the expressions and body language reflect my children and even husband and I as we are.  We to often look at the negative of ourselves, but I love this photo of my beautiful family of six!
