Bathing Suits vs. Breast Pumps

While y'all are out getting bikini ready and looking for that perfect summer suit...
Tommy Bahama at Nordstrom

I am considering buying this:
Yeah. HOT. I even tried it on over my dress in Buy Buy Baby....I got a few stares. Welcome to Motherhood Kat!

At least I could blog more right?

Photography: Kristin Sobieski

I will be posting the final nursery pics soon but in my design process I met a new friend! And....she just so happens to take pictures of Newborns!

I scoured the Charlotte Craigslist for a Jenny Lind crib beginning in November. They were either all too beat up, missing parts, or too expensive. I would have purchased a new one but I think the blogger explosion of Jenny Lind cribs in baby rooms created a shortage!

And then I emailed Kristin Sobieski! Kristin was selling her daughter's crib and it was in immaculate condition. We drove down to her home near Lake Wylie on a Sunday afternoon and when I walked in the door I was blown away by her family pictures.

I am obsessed with taking pictures. I started out with a Canon Powershot and now have the Rebel Xsi. I am in dire need of better lenses but even though I am without stellar equipment I absolutely love taking pictures. I harass my family for group shots, annoy my girlfriends for their copies of photos if I miss some, and agonize over whether I should read a magazine on the beach or run around and snap photos of my family.

So when I met Kristin I was insanely jealous of what she was starting. She also loves taking pictures and is turning her hobby into a business. My dream job would be to be a photographer. I have met so many wonderful people that have made this their life and I couldn't imagine anything more rewarding.

Here are some of Kristin's beautiful images! She is having an Easter special so hurry and book while you can!

Baby Ford has arrived!



Just like his momma, baby arrived early! 3 weeks early!!!

Ford arrived March 25th at 2:36pm weighing 5lbs 14 oz and was 19 3/4" long! He is already up to 6 lbs 2 oz and I'm starting to adjust to 3 hours of sleep!

I cannot believe that he is here and is already 10 days old! I will post more about my "birth story" later but wanted you to all know the news!

He is my little snuggle bunny and M and I couldn't be happier!
