Can you believe it’s May? I honestly can’t. This year seems to be at double speed… but maybe that’s because the last two were in slow motion. May is a great month for family portraits- everything is colorful and green, landscaping everywhere is perfect, and the temperature is ideal- not too hot, not too cold. […]
it’s National Infertility Awareness Week and if you’ve been around here for a bit, you know the struggle it was for us to start a family. It took nine years to get our Max. It was mentally, physically, and financially difficult at every turn. While many are still uncomfortable talking about infertility, it impacts 1 […]
Five things you might not know about me… 1. A few weekends ago we became pet parents to the world’s ugliest fish. Max picked them out and was adamant that they were “the ones.” Albino cory cats. Google them. 2. In my early 30’s I started to get cluster headaches and migraines. I’d never had […]
