happy birthday.

four years ago, i gave birth to my first son.
in the middle of the night- exactly how i imaged it. 

roman, i'll never forget the moment i met you,
a perfect purple bundle.
i'll never forget the way your tounge looked in your mouth as you cried.

you've taught me everything i know as a mother.
you've given me passion for things i never really thought of before you.
in an instant, you completely changed my life.

last night we spent time laughing together in bed.
i was soaking in your sweetness and three year old-ness.
i get totally sentimental every year when you are about to get older.
i don't ever want to say goodbye to any of your cuddly baby ways.

i've completely enjoyed being your mother.
thank you for teaching me everyday about true love and respect.

i love you moon.

change.

this week, it seemed like asher just instantly changed into another baby. he started sitting up by himself! He still needs assistance sometimes or to be propped a little, but he’s getting there:) in the same day, he rolled over from him tummy to his back in front of our bedroom mirror several times. it was so sweet, i would cheer for him when he got to his back and then he’d smile and do it again. he actually rolled over at seven weeks old a couple times, but i haven’t seen it since! that night, he decided he wanted to sit in my lap while i read stories in bed with roman so that he could try to grab at the book and bang on the pictures. normally, he lays quietly between roman and i during stories and just contentedly stares at the pictures. all week, he's been surprising me by doing cute things like grabbing my water cup towards his mouth while he sits in my lap and reaching both of his little arms out towards his brother's toys. It’s just amazing how quickly babies change and grow.

fall photoshoot.

i was able to get roman pretty genuinely excited about this photoshoot. unfortunately i didn't get to incorporate all of his ideas, which included he and his daddy dressing up as pirates...
roman loves these old cheap thrift store cameras that i found. he loves pretending to take pictures :)
getting ready for his fourth birthday party tomorrow!
yikes, where does the time go?

life right now.

we started roman's first year of homeschool preschool. it has been hectic, but special to see him learn and grow. asher is in love with his "busy bees". he cracks us up as he lays under them and smiles away. he also likes his animal mobile now, but not as much as the bees of course.
 roman loves to makes us "presents" which consist of various set ups of his toys placed somewhere in the house for us to admire. i love having little boys. i'm always saying that to aaron. when i was first pregnant with roman, i couldn't imagine having a boy. now, i can't imagine it any other way.

we've spent the end of our summer taking lots of drives out to the country and painting at our new house. there she is, complete with massive bushes and a crooked little address post.
