Waiting

Counting the days until we meet.

Loving you all these months.

Starting our lives together, forever.

The wait is nearly over.

There is a certain stillness during our pregnancy, amongst the craziness, the worry, the endless appointments, (and for some the endless feeling sick, tired, and sore), that during those moments we can marvel at what our bodies can create, relish in the feeling of wonderment at this tiny human that will be a huge part of our lives and to imagine holding our baby after all those months.

No more so than this mother awaiting the birth of her new baby, she isn't new to this, as being a mother to a teenager she has been well versed in motherhood already. This birth however will almost be starting anew. Excited is an understatement.

Life

The beginning of life, the meaning of life and the one that begins yours. Your life will never be the same again. And remember, take one day at a time, don't think about yesterday, live today and tomorrow will be another day.

It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can't tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself

~ Joyce Maynard

Beautiful Diya came into the studio for her newborn photo session. So tiny, so perfect, so wonderfully loved by her parents. We were all feeling the heat that day however, as it was the hottest day so far, but little miss was very chilled out!

We all know as parents how in love we are with our children, but that instinctive, instant love as soon as you hold your newborn baby is just an amazing feeling.

 

Beau-tiful

Your sweet and beau-tiful soul
A heart full of love and warm cuddles
An inquisitive mind full of wonder

May your days be fun-filled and never dull
Enjoy all that you are and can become
Our little beau, may your life be full

Be Beau-tiful, Beau

Loving you

One became two and you became three.
Three wonderful children.

One day of you
Turned into One week, One month
Then became ONE year

Your days spent in my arms.
Eyes fixed on mine.
My heart is finally filled.

Those tiny hands (and feet) etched in my mind.
Grew into chubby fingers wrapped around mine.
My heart is finally filled.

My baby, my little one.

My gorgeous, cuddly little man turned a year old at the end of last month (he shares the same birthday as his older brother who turned 3 that day). Those days have been nothing short of memorable in so many ways. The days are long, but the years are very short, as I have come to realise over and over with my children. Most of all this time around. I am holding on to all that encompasses being a mother to a not-so-little baby. And taking in every little moment with all my children. Hug tightly, love completely and openly, laugh (until you cry at the good and the not so good times!), and enjoy the ride to wherever the journey to parenthood takes you.

Mama Love

Love.

The connection.
The simplicity.
The beauty.
The everlasting bond.

Between mother and child.
There is no other feeling.
Pure and simple.

Love.

The joys of pregnancy

Giving birth and being born brings us into the essence of creation, where the human spirit is courageous and bold and the body, a miracle of wisdom ~ Harriette Hartigan

9 months of nurturing, growing and loving your baby. The miracle of life taking hold and making itself right at home in your ever growing tummy.

9 months of enjoying, caressing, believing, imagining and dreaming.

9 months of becoming a mother.

Mothers-to-be. There is no greater force of nature. You are all amazing.
