Welcome to my Life

Thanks for coming and hearing me ramble :) .. I love to talk and I feel that a blog would be a great way to keep a journal of my life and pictures. If you know me I love to take pictures, I'm kind of a amateur but I'm getting better and better. This is my life as a Full time working mommy and wife. I have a GREAT husband his name is Justin or "babe" he is my best friend. We welcomed our first child into the world over a year ago. Her name is Emma Marie ... or we call her M's, m&ms, or Emma-Bee (long story short Black eyed peas came out with a song Immabee around the time she was born.. so you know lol). My beautiful daughter is the best thing that has ever happened to me, I now live for her and I love doing all the baby stuff with her its like I can be a kid again :). As of right now she is 15 months old and starting terrible 2's early, so she keeps me on my toes.. Being a first time mommy I learn something new everyday and I'm just taking life as it comes trying to enjoy all the little things that comes with being a mom even when times are not so good.

My daughter is also my inspiration for starting my own photography business. I started back in August and I have been so fortunate to give my friends & clients so very memorable photos. A beautiful picture is the ultimate gift. Life moves so fast and pictures are my way of looking back and remembering that specific moment.

My daughter also was born via c-section so I'm very into researching and educating myself in what is called a "VBAC" - vaginal birth after Cesarean. Growing up I always knew I wanted a big family.. my husband and I have agreed on 3-4 kiddos. So of course I had asked myself the question.. does 1 c-section mean always a c-section?? Well no it does not. I have joined a great support group that will help me through my next pregnancy and informing me that I can have the delivery I have always wanted. Don't get me wrong my 1st delivery I wouldn't have it any other way I did my best I labored for 26hrs and she was positioned wrong inside of me which did not allow to descend into my pelvis. She was born healthy and happy and that's all I wanted and for that I do not beat myself up over having a c-section. Alot of Dr's are quick to just give you another c/s because overall its "easier" for them.. but its a difficult recovery and I just cannot imagine having a toddler, infant, and major surgery next time. If I absolutely need one next time because of my child's health I will no questions asked. But if my child is healthy and I'm doing good I will fight her my VBAC and not let anyone talk me into a c/s unless medically necessary.

I have a great and supportive family and a awesome circle of friends that I can always count on. and that's the best part of life.

Thanks for stopping by and listening to me blab my mouth.
