Kennedy and Eli (+ 2 more on the way)

These two have grown up so fast! I remember when my sister-in-law Inga and I were pregnant with these two cuties! Time really does pass us by so quickly.. I enjoy every single second I get to hold my sweet girl (and my nephew) in my arms! Eli is constantly on the move (usually following K around) They had a blast spending the day together. Inga and I decided to try and get a few pics of Eli and K together before Harper and Gavin arrive in 3 weeks (We are having our C-Sections 4 days apart!) Before Eli arrived Trav set up the backdrop for me and I got to sneak in a few pics of Kennedy.. She has SUCH an amazing and animated personality and I feel like each of these pics show it... She will sit, pose, and smile for mini M&M's. When Eli arrived our idea was NOT so easily done... Between 2 little ones running around, Eli not wanting Kennedy to touch him, and all Kennedy wanting to do was hug and kiss him and boss him around, and 2 VERY pregnant girls trying to assemble this photo-shoot was very trying!! Eli was falling off the chair and Kennedy fell backwards and the whole backdrop fell down, but at the end of the day I am happy with the pics we got. One of them both looking at the camera smiling would have been nice too! Both of their little lives are about to change as they know it! 

Harper's Maternity shoot

My good friend Michelle Anderson (Mango Mahalo Photography)  did a maternity shoot for Harper! She also did my maternity shoots when I was pregnant with Kennedy! She found a beautiful (but scary) location for these photos.  After packing up a few of Harper's nursery decorations we headed out. Somehow with both of my pregnancy pics I have ended up in water at 9 months preggo!! We always manage to have a great time and I certainly know what she is getting for Christmas now lol!! We are all excited for H's arrival!!

Harper's Shower

Now that the huge event we have been planning known as Harper's Shower is over, I finally had a minute to look at some of the pics.. I even had a little time to edit (a few) of them. There was so much love and work put into this shower. She is going to be one loved little girl just like Kennedy! I am so in love with all of her decorations for the shower so much so that most of them are going into her nursery! I am so thankful and appreciative to everyone who helped with the shower it made my day that much more special! We are very blessed and loved! More pics to follow....

Project HARPER

It seems so long since I have even had time to sit down and write a post! Life has been extremely busy!! We are expecting our little girl Harper Abigail soon! So on to the newest project... Harper's nursery. I wanted to do something really different from Kennedy's room (black, pink, and white Parisian theme) So a vintage lace, burlap, and bird cage theme!! Its still a work in progress but I have to say I am loving it so far. Almost done sewing her bed skirt. I think from starting this theme in her room my newest obsession is burlap! I love it!! Here are a few pics from the progress along the way....

Baby Henson #2

It has been a long time since I have posted... The holidays were so busy, Kennedy started school at Montessori, and now we are expecting another addition to the Henson family :) We are very excited and blessed to be expecting again!! I am almost 11 weeks and boy has the nausea and exhaustion settled right in!! We have some pretty amazing family and friends who have helped me through this time. It will be nice when I finally feel normal again! I am trying to enjoy this pregnancy since it will be the last....  Here are a few pics of our growing baby and his/her "big" sister Kennedy. She runs around the house patting her belly saying "baby".
