the sweet moments...

For the last week or so I've been too tired to think about taking pictures of Hayston, but yesterday I missed my job as a photographer, so I decided to bring my camera back out. I have to say that I'm so glad I did because I was able to capture a couple sweet moments in our family's day-to-day life, especially between John and our son. It was such a good reminder to me of why I LOVE what I do. I love to capture the often missed moments in life. Hayston is growing and changing so much, so quickly, I don't want to miss out on what makes life with him so special. I have always felt it is such a privilege to be invited in to my client's lives and be able to capture these kinds of moments for them, and it was so much fun to have the opportunity to do it for my own family. So, thanks to all of my clients for letting me into the precious moments of your lives and inspiring me to cherish them in my own. Enjoy this glimpse into our family and home! Hayston is still pretty sleepy all the time, but I love his BIG yawn!it's the little things...like sweet little toes!John had a late night with Hayston the night before last, so the two of them ended up taking a little snooze last night after dinner. It was a beautiful moment!I don't think there is anything sweeter than a baby falling asleep on it's Dad's chest. I'm so glad I captured this moment between my guys...Hopefully, there will be more sweet moments to come!

I already miss him and its only been a day. And am a bit bitter that he is sitting in my polka dot chair...Hayston that's where Auntie Leah sits! I showed the pics to Judah & he actually identified Hayston this time instead of calling him Olivia or Levi. Keep the pics coming I love them!!

I think I'm in love with Hayston. He's only a few weeks old and he's already so cool! Just look at the way he's chillin' in that chair, with his hand in his lap. It's like he's saying "sup, yo?"

Except that he's asleep...and he can't talk yet...

seriously, though - these pictures are precious. I adore Hayston, and your photography in general. Miss you all.
