Little Artist

I set up an easel for Maz to paint next to me,

its so fun watching him mix colors and tell me what he is painting.

 

Proud mom.

Looking back

 

Its amazing to me how fast time has been going. Its hard to believe that 2014 is already over. Maz and I had an incredible year together and he has given me some of the sweetest memories I will treasure for the rest of my life. 

Ever since I became this little boys mommy New Years always makes me feel kind of sad. Mazor is growing up so fast, he is so smart too, he picks up on things I don't even realize I am doing. I worry I am not doing the best I can for him, I worry I am not spending enough time with him, and wishing I had more time to spend watching him grow. I find myself holding on to the littlest of moments I have with him with everything I have.

I am so grateful for the time I have with my son.

 

2014 was a big year for my little photo business and I found myself overwhelmed, exhausted, and even drained at times, but I really wouldn't have changed any of it. I love being a photographer and hope that my love for it will only grow bigger and better. (along with my business)

It was also a very busy year for me and Tug. We traveled A LOT this year and rarely had a weekend where we were not busy doing something.

I am so grateful to have found Tug and love the relationship we are building together. I love the way he treats Mazor and I know Mazor loves him very much. He is an amazing example for him and I hope he continues to teach Mazor new things.

 

A few of my favorite moments of 2014 include;

 

-Surfing on the beach and watching the waves in Costa Rica

-Waking up early in Yellowstone to look for animals with Mazor & Tug

-Watching Tug teach Mazor to fish

-Tea and Rocking chairs
-Summer nights at the ranch with my family

-Seeing Maz light up at Disneyland.

-Tugs valentines dinner for me

-Seeing the flowers at the Market in Seattle

-Meeting so many different kinds of people for photography

-White water rafting in the freezing rain

-Listening to Maz play with his toys (he is seriously so funny)

-Christmas morning orange juice with Mazor

 

There were so many fun memories of 2014. I am looking forward to what 2015 will bring.

Sledding

 

 

Mazor LOVES sledding and hes not afraid of any hill. This was our first year not using tubes for sleds and these ones were a lot faster. 

He did not like getting snow on his face though. At all.

Tug built a snowman and sat with him.

 

 

Mazor really liked using M&Ms for the face.

 

Love these two so much.
