Ariel and Joey are kind of like family to us by default! My brother is married to Samantha, which just happens to be Ariel’s sister! So, I have come to know and love Ariel and Joey like family. I could not be more excited to watch these two get ready to become parents. I know that this sweet baby girl is going to be oh so loved.

Maternity sessions have grown into one of my favorite types of sessions. I love hearing the parents-to-be talk about how they are getting prepared for the arrival of their little one! You can feel the excitement and nervousness! Oh, what a glorious feeling it is!! Being a parent is definitely one of the greatest life gifts!

Gosh I feel like it was just yesterday when I had my maternity plan all laid out and ready to go... then my plans got shook up when my twins decided to come 2 months early!! We didn’t have anything ready! We were building a house, moved into a rental and spent 30 days in the hospital! Lots of tired and sleepless nights during those early days, but I can’t even go back to imagining the way life was without my two girls!

I spent the evening at Botanical Gardens with Ariel and Joey, and it was the most perfect Spring day! The weather was just perfect, and they looked amazing! They made this so easy on me! I can’t wait to meet this sweet baby girl in a few months! Buckle up guys and get ready for the most amazing ride!!
