52 weeks

Hello. Finally, I've given myself a new project to get me posting again. So much has changed with us sense my last update. But really, not much new is going on at the same time. Hazen is learning and growing so much every day. His little personality is showing up in full force now. Everything is a dog, all animals say moo and my name is dada. He loves food. Loves it! Kam is always asking me "didn't you just feed that kid?" Being a mom is so right.

So the new project. Not really a new concept, just a new venture for me. I decided to do the 52 week photo project. Every weekend I take a new pic of Hazen. They're pretty random, I don't really have a plan on the type of photos of him, just whatever strikes me at the time.  So far, I'm pretty happy with where they're going. I plan on posting them monthly.

Hope everyone's 2014 is starting out healthy and happy. Enjoy the pics!

Happy Halloween

Paul Bunyan wished you a manly halloween with lots of candy and tough guy stuff.

Peaches and Apples

This is picture overload. But...oh well.

Until next time. Probably some halloween action... I think his costume is going to be SA-WEET! I just haven't made it yet. Enjoy your weekend.

12 months

and just like that... a year flew by.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's some pics from Hazen's birthday and of lately. We had Hazen's Anderson/Rowsey family party on Saturday. It was a fun day. I didn't have too much spare time to create him a pinterest worthy party.  But I managed to bake his cake from scratch and create him some fun banners that I can hang every year on his birthday. So I didn't fail him completely on his first year.

 

 

This is the cake my mom made for Hazen's on his actual birthday. She has all of my Grandma Hazel's old cake pans that she made all the grandkids birthday cakes from for years. They are quite special and my mom is keeping that tradition going. Fun stuff!

Thank you grammas and grampas, aunties and uncles for the awesome gifts and memories from Hazen's first birthday. Heck, first year. The day before is birthday, I couldn't keep my mind off what I was doing at that time one year ago. And also thinking about the whirl wind of a year it was. It seems so overwhelming when you're in the throws of a new baby/new momma, but then I think back to my 3 am chats with 3 week old Hazen and I remember why I kept reminding myself to enjoy the here and now. And I did. Still am.

In the next day or two I'm going to post the last half of summer photos, including a fun shoot I took of my little big boy in the apple orchards for his one year photos. They're pretty cute.
