8 Months Old!


 March 15, 2018-
Wyatt Wray is now 8 months old, going on 10 years old!
He is crawling at lightning speeds, trying to start teething and is constantly gabbing away. He is always yelling, "DA-DA-DAAA-DA" or "Nanana-na-na-naa" or "Neee-nee!" I like to think that when he says, "Na-na-na" he's trying to say, "Mama" but who knows?

Wyatt enjoys playing with blocks, crawling after Ruby and trying to grab her feet/face/any general part of her.

He is starting to do a little bit better with being patient in the car seat, but definitely hits a max every time.

His night time sleeping hasn't changed much (unfortunately) and he is still waking up about 2-3 times a night. Sometimes when his mouth is hurting, I have a hard time getting him back to sleep. But most nights he's back knocked out in about 10 minutes or less!

Wyatt usually takes 2 decent naps a day. He loves going on walks with Mommy and Ruby. He is finally taking a binky as of the last month or so!!! For the longest time he wanted NOTHING to do with anything that wasn't my boob. Which of course was really frustrating when he needed soothing. I'm pretty pumped about it now!

He has been sledding, hiking and jogging with us and does well with all of them!

Wyatt is our little adventurer!

Why do wedding photos take up such a large chunk of our budget?

As a photographer, I am always looking at photographs. I love to flip through photo albums from my parents' childhood, peruse my elementary school yearbooks and ogle my wedding photos from last year. Of course, I also love to click through my past clients sessions and see how happy they are with their loved ones, or how they learned to be comfortable and confident in themselves while flying solo during one of our portrait sessions. As a photographer, I chat with clients about their budgets for their upcoming wedding photographs all the time. I was married about 11.89 months ago and I can speak with experience from both sides of the bride/photographer table- the most important thing that you will spend your hard earned dollars on will be your wedding photographs. It seems hard to shell out more than 1,000 dollars for something you can hire your best friend from elementary school with the nice camera and kit lens to do for an 8th of the price, right? True, they will give you a ...

2017

I honestly can't believe how quickly time seems to fly the older I've gotten. Not that I think I'm old per-say, but as the years roll on, the faster they seem to pass. 2017 has been a great year with so many fun experiences. It has also been a year that has brought challenges, big and small, old and new. In 2017 we worked, we played, we cried and we laughed. 2017 brought us a perfect, wonderful baby boy. Wyatt is seriously one of the brightest lights in my life. Becoming a mother has been wonderful and I'm grateful that with each passing day it seems to get easier and more fun. It was rough going for the first few weeks, with "baby blues" and sleepless nights. But now whenever Josh and I sit and look at the cute faces our baby makes, when we listen to his giggles I can't help but feel like we are a puzzle, each making the other whole. We tried to do as many fun things as we could before I gave birth in July. For Josh's 28th birthd...

HOW TO ROCK AT BEING BOTH A FUR MAMA & A BABY MAMA

I've always loved animals. As a kid I would beg my mom to let us have a dog; I would come up with chores to do as bargianing chips hoping that the trade would be enough to get a puppy for my birthday or for Christmas. I would collect animal fact cards & magazines & I loved to pour over encyclopedias of Dog Breeds. Later in life, as a newly wed, the incessant desire to have a dog of my own resurfaced. Josh and I would sit in bed and google puppy pictures of different breeds that I had been interested in over the years. October 24, 2015 was the day that everything fell into place when I found a flyer for Australian Shepherd puppies that were for sale in Elk Grove, CA. We came home that night with our sweet, fluffy puppy and named her Ruby Lou &  our lives have never been the same. So much joy, love and comfort fills our days that we spend running, hiking, swimming and snuggling with our sweet fur baby. These last (almost) 3 years have been awesome with her by our s...
