UGH. Please tell me, all you mamas out there pushing it through morning sickness, how the heck do you do it for weeks on end?!  Seriously, you all deserve a medal because I’ve had a bad case of the stomach flu for just the last few days and it.is.the pits (yes, I am totally that person who turns into a whiny baby when I’m sick).  Thankfully, though, I’m starting to feel a little better today and thought I’d celebrate by getting some work and much-needed blogging done (I’m a real party animal).

I decided to share the following B&W’s from a recent favorite family photography session of mine.  I thought this miniature series within the whole set was pretty neat and a great summary of Maren at 2 (can you believe she is two already?!).  I also realized I don’t often share B&Ws, and not sure why as they have such a unique beauty to them. I feel like because you are only focused on the content of what’s going on and not necessarily the scenery or the visual aesthetics. How does that saying go.. *googling* ah, yes..

Well, it is so true. And I don’t know about you, but I need a little soul today.

Anyway, enjoy and another happy (belated) birthday to Maren! XO
