Pregnant + Beautiful

This is really just a sneak peak of a much larger post, but I just couldn't resist...just look how beautiful my pregnant wife is. I'm so proud of her, she has done a fantastic job of baking our little bun in the oven. We are so close now we can taste it! We are due next week and just can't wait. We are bubbling with excitement and about to burst with the anticipation of meeting the brand new addition to our family. We have prepared for our birth using the Bradley Method of natural-childbirth and are ready for our baby's birthday to arrive...just waiting on him or her now. We have chosen not know the sex of our baby until birth just to add to the fun (I am usually a horrible surprise keeper, so this will be the best surprise ever!) Just out of curiosity we have done all the little wives tale tests to determine sex and taken poles from our friends and family and still have come up even...could be a boy or a girl! I'll let you know next week :)
Even with all the uncertainties and anxiety, Molly, I know you will do a fantastic job I will be right there with you the whole time and with everything you could possibly need! I'm so proud and can't wait to meet our baby and share in this experience with you! Go team Snelson!!

Troy, Michelle and the baby in the belly.

Time passes and friends come and go. Some move away, some simply move on. I hate change and I don't use the word "hate" freely. I like things the way they are although God repeatedly shows me that His ways involve change and it's usually better for all of us. I thank God for Troy and Michelle. Our visits with them are NEVER long enough and there are 17 hours of driving between us but our time spent with them is always quality. The example of their marriage and love for each other always speaks volumes to me and Matt. We were able to spend a couple of days with them and soak up their warmth. They are thrilled to have their first child and we can't wait to meet the little one! We love you guys so much!

HOME.

We had a silly-sushi double-date.


Michelle and I had a girly shoot that is for their eyes only but this shot was my favorite so I had to share it!

P.s. Baby Khoen Lamech was born right before Christmas! He's perfect and beautiful. What a wonderful gift!!

Erica, Kyle and soon to meet the world, Kaelen!!

Erica and Kyle are friends before clients and we were honored to be asked to take some photos before Kaelen pops out to meet all of us. We hung out around the house and shot in some comfy places. Thanks for hanging out with us guys, we had a great time laughing with you. We can't wait to meet the beautiful combination of the two of you.
