home again, home again...

penny and i just got back from our trip to NY to visit some family. the kid had more fun with her cousins then i can even put into words (pics to come!). she's wiped, i'm wiped, but she already said she's going back next saturday. good luck with that, kid! and side note, it's fairly amazing to take a plane ride with an almost 3 year old. the ohhhhh's and ahhhhh's that came out of her... man, i wish i could bottle it up!

our yesterday...

in one month this little girl will be turning 3 years old. for some reason this number is hitting me with a surprising amount of nostalgia. i wasn't the mom who sobbed at the first birthday milestone, and we celebrated two without even a hint of sadness. i honestly never understood when moms said they were so sad about their baby growing up. my thought was always, "well, what is the alternative?". but don't worry, now i get it! for whatever reason 3 seems to be the number that's making me feel all the feels! i'm not one bit sad that she's growing, i just simply can't believe the person she's becoming, and the little nugget she once was. it really all does just go so so fast! surprisingly, i haven't been taking quite as many photos of our day to day nonsense as i once was. wedding season, with a dash of family photo season, lead me to just putting the camera down at home. it didn't feel right though. my love for this craft developed out of a love for capturing our everyday mundane. the magic is in these moments and i want these moments documented here as well...
