My Little Photo Session With Our Girl

May 4, 2015April 11, 2017

I am so blessed to be able to spend my days with our girl. I have dreamed about this for years, but to be quite honest, never thought it would come true. I never thought I would get a chance to have a child, let alone take pictures of her! That is why I get a little camera happy some days, but I am just trying to soak in every blessing I can of each day with her. I do not ever want to take a day for granted because these days are a result of YEARS of prayers. I do not take these pictures in hopes of putting a halt on time, but to treasure the times spent with her.

I find it’s hard to take pictures of a baby because they get so excited to have their picture taken (not really)! So I know these aren’t professional (don’t have a “professional” camera), but they sure were fun to take!

This picture just makes me laugh 🙂

LOVE this picture, even though her leg is blurry. Apparently she was just so excited about how cute she looked!

Snuggles!

Just a day in the life of Mazy and Kristin!

Around The Home

We have welcomed some warmer weather to Minnesota this past week! We have been in the 30s the past few days, which has been so wonderful, considering Mazy wants to keep going outside. It is a whole lot more bearable for us all when it’s not so frigid out there. Granted it’s a sloppy mess,…

Around The Home

I feel like this past week was spent getting back in routine, after being gone for Thanksgiving. Mazy takes a little time to adjust back to life (especially sleeping), but by Friday, she was back to her normal self! Granted we will turn around and do it again in a few weeks, but we are…

Embracing the Place: Minnesota

Wait… WHAT is that? That would be grass, my friends! We have not seen grass since last November and I am sure anyone living in the north, feels the same way! I wish I was exaggerating, but unfortunately I am not! The wind has blown so hard this past week (especially with the Blizzard Warning…

Around the Home

If you live in West Michigan, we have experienced all the seasons in one week I feel like! Frigid cold temps with snow, to sun and 55. Unlike other places, you just never know what you’re going to get! And that is why we love living here. Nothing is predictable, which sure is a representation…

Around The Home

What a beautiful weekend it was in West Michigan! There was so much sun that by Sunday, when it rained all day, we were okay with it because our pale Dutch skin had seen enough sun for a bit! I haven’t dusted our house in weeks, though I feel this past week we weren’t in…

Blessed By Our Families!

Over the past 3 weeks, we have had the privilege of family coming out from Michigan, to meet Miss Mazy Grace! The first weekend, my parents came out and then the next weekend, Dan’s mom came out, and then this past weekend, my mom, sister, and her 4 girls came to visit. It has been…
