{Baby Chicks}

As a mother of 4 my life is busy in a way I could never understand as a young mother of 1 or 2. As my children get older, life gets more and more filled with this, that and the other.
When I had only a couple kids, i had plenty of time to cuddle, read and kill time with my littles.
More kids = less time at the expense of my littlest two.
Our baby chicks don't stay baby chicks for very long and I feel like time is slipping away from me.

The other day as I was getting ready Camden had taken her post on my bed to watch cartoons.
Before long she fell asleep. She was freshly bathed, smelled delectable and was only wearing her diaper. {for the record, that is the perfect combination to snuggle against}
Before I climbed in next to her, I opened up all curtains and blinds in my room,
filled it up with tons of light,
and snapped some shots so I could remember this day,
this moment forever.

My chicks are my world, my life, my reason for being.

The warmth, love, and trust of this little chick keeps this mama moving.

{Stephen & Natalie:Full Post}

Here is my full post from my photo shoot with
the Garces Family. {my family}
I am such a lucky gal to be able to call these guys family. I have known Stephen since he was 12 years old and watched him grow up to be a wonderful, hardworking husband and father. And he picked the coolest girl to marry. Natalie is so much fun and I love having her as a sister in law. And she is my hair stylist and is AMAZING!!!
Their daughter Marlie is the spunkiest, funniest little girl and I love her to pieces. It was such a pleasure for me to be able to take their family pictures!!!
