Heather needed some photos taken in her studio, so I asked her if she would mind snapping a few of me too – for some [much] head-shots. Then I thought about throwing the girls in a couple, since Paul or Pierson are the only ones who get to take photos of us. It was pretty fun […]

First I wanted to say I will be ‘out of the office’ for the next several days. Why? It is my 30th birthday weekend! Paul arrived home yesterday to say, “Babe, we are leaving for New Orleans tomorrow through Monday!” This is one of our favorite cities and we are lucky enough to have a […]

Happy Birthday, Arden! I hope you have a wonderful weekend in New Orleans. 🙂 I’ve never been there, so I’m looking forward to more awesome photos from you. I loved my 30’s and here is something to look forward to…40’s are even better. Seriously. 🙂September 16, 2011 – 8:08 am
Happy Birthday! My husband and I got to spend 3 days in New Orleans earlier this year when we had our HUGE holiday to America (we live in Australia) and we LOVED it there. New Orleans just has it’s own energy and we loved exploring around the French Quarter. Our favourite place was Preservation Hall – 3 hours of spectacular jazz music – bliss!September 15, 2011 – 5:14 pm
Happy Birthday Arden! Hope ya’ll enjoy your weekend!September 15, 2011 – 3:48 pm

Right before Paul and I were engaged – and I probably had baby fever – we were talking about getting a dog. One day we went to Petsmart and found Pete! Well, not long after we adopted Pete were newly married AND expecting a baby. Through two new babies, Pierson, running a business, Paul and […]
So I have to say FIRST… before the long story and before even MORE photos… Please watch this slideshow. Heather Essian – my amazing friend and photographer – put this together. She asked me to ‘pick a song.’ I chose ‘This Woman’s Work’ by Kate Bush. If any of you have seen ‘She’s Having a […]

You are the most amazing inspirational woman I know!August 15, 2013 – 7:46 pm
That’s selfish of you to put you’re baby’s life at risk like that. Home births have have triple the mortality rate. Consider yourself lucky.March 13, 2013 – 1:13 pm
This literally brought tears to my eyes! Gorgeous!August 13, 2012 – 10:51 am

Many of my facebook friends know I was joking on Saturday about the FULL MOON. One of my lovely friends on there brought it to my attention. I was like, “BRING IT ON GRAVITATIONAL PULL!” In fact I even did a bit of research to see if this was ‘true.’ While there isn’t “proven” evidence, […]
