playing catch up.

remember me?
i'm back in this space.
i've missed writing it all, narrating my day to day.
with everything going on, this place has been neglected.
& i felt a sense if pressure about it all.
before i get back into the current,
i thought i'd play a little game of catch up.
photos of my preceeding life.

winter came and went.
and came and went.
overstayed her welcome, really.
she's a temperamental beauty:

valentine's day showed up
in a handmade kind of way.
my heart well is continuously overflowing:

 my little one learned to sleep like this:
(i love that tushy!)


i moved my smithing studio into my dad's glass space
(& i sold my first piece).
i've been practicing and expanding horizons.
the future is full of possibility.
but more on that later: 

as of a month or so ago,
i now not only photograph with my husband,
but i have started working with him in the office as well.
it's good for me:


we've been getting acclimated to our new home
on the family farm.
or should i say, reacclimated since it was
my childhood home.
doesn't that sound romantic?
practically speaking, it's been fantastic for our finances,
as well as a great excuse
 to purge & consolidate.
it's an unbeatable walk to my momma's house.
it smells earthy and is downright iridescent.
plus, you can't beat the nightsong:

there's been some change,
some growth,
expansion.
family.
friends.
art.
life.
projects:
                                   

and then there's this little man.
my heart beat.
he's approaching six months.
time flies, they say.
sai.
sigh.
he's getting so big: 


 and then spring came like a festival.
sunshine for my marrow:


what have you been up to?

so, i don't typically do "wordless wednesday" posts, but, if i did...it'd be this.


bahaha...wait, does laughing count?

i'm in love!
 ...with a short, pudgy bald(ish) little man.
and boy, oh boy, am i!?

:)

*side note: i tried to actually put this up when it happened...ummm, weeks ago...
but it didn't work. tonight it did. better late than never? why, yes, i think so.

chaos in Christmas town.



oh, how i adore my nephew.

(though the tiny folks of Christmas town probably 
do NOT share my sentiment.)

life is in the details.


it seems i don't write much anymore.
i have a lot to say,
but i'm still speechless.

the papoose as a pumpkin.


that's right.
he's the papoose.
we just started calling him that when we brought him home
and got him all nicely swaddled.
actually, paul did.
i had to look up the definition.
but, it turns out, it's a fun word to say.
and fun to rhyme with.
(my husband and i frequently break out into song.
we think our life is a musical.)
so, papoose stuck.

anywhosers.

he's the papoose.
and he's little man.
he's also baby cakes,
cub
and
stinky pete.
but...
he was also a pumpkin head for a day.
