Hello Elijah!

I recently got the privilege of meeting and taking photos of baby Elijah.  I was reminded what a hard job we as mothers have.  The sleepless nights, the worry of the unknown, the firsts, and the pressure we put on ourselves.  I was also reminded of the joy a new little one brings.  All the love we feel for them.

Yep, every time I go and take pictures for someone I always feel something different.  Anyways, enough of my rambles.  Here he is.  Sweet baby Elijah.

Road Trippin!

For the first time ever this mama and her kiddos hit the road on their own!  This has never been done before, but we survived!  Not only did we survive I discovered a wonderful thing!  I discovered my kiddos are finally at an age where road trips are fun!!  We have had many, many, many not fun road trips.  From infants who needed feeding every two hours and wouldn't take a bottle. To crazy massive road construction.  To screaming kids in car seats.  No, not all kids enjoy a car ride.  Besides a fun road trip our destination was also a big hit.  We ended our road trip at Jeff's sister's house in Colville, Washington.  And while in Colville I learned my kids really enjoy being outside.  I mean I know they like being outside, but man they woke up went outside and stayed outside!  Of course who wouldn't love a ride on some big equipment!

Or watching their uncle shoot off a rocket.

Practicing like mad to come up with cool tricks in mid air.

And climbing around on dirt mountains?!

They also really enjoyed their Easter egg hunt.  Isaiah actually found a real duck egg!  He left it where is lay.  It's the white one under the tree.

I think Chester wanted an egg or two.

 And lastly they loved each other.  I love that I captured this sweet moment.

So, all in all we had a great road trip with the bonus of a great get away spot.
