Mommy and Me Outfits: Baby Dedication
Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6 I can’t believe Arielle is 2 months old!! Time has certainly flown by. I am big on creating memories with my new family. As a mother who is a follower of Christ, it was important to have Arielle involved in the baby dedication at our home church. For those who are not familiar with a baby dedication, it is a wonderful moment in which parents make a public statement of faith to raise their child under God’s grace…

Birth Story of Baby Arielle
Hey boos!! As some of you know, I was unable to give birth by our baby’s due date. So we had to make an appointment with the hospital to get induced.

So we were scheduled to get induced the following Wednesday. This gave me an opportunity figure out how I wanted to share the birth story of Baby Arielle. So I decided to document…

Maternity Photoshoot Reveal
I could not experience my first pregnancy without having a maternity photoshoot. The fun part about having a baby in Winter is that you can do a holiday themed photoshoot. Instead of doing the usual Christmas tree or holiday decor shoots, I thought it would be a great idea to do a rustic glam photoshoot. We were a little late with the reveal since we had to push our original shoot. But overall, I am very pleased with how it turned out and can’t wait for another photoshoot with baby Arielle, when she arrives. The shoot was done during my 30th…
