I told myself that 2026 would be the year I would I told myself that 2026 would be the year I would get ‘me’ back and I suppose I have been on a mission! ❤️‍🔥

I’ve had this Anberlin tattoo floating around in my brain for yearsss. Finally talked through it with a friend, shared my ideas with @alexandratattoo , and she made them all come to ✨LIFE!✨ Had the best time enjoying several hours of girl talk, good music, and tattoo therapy with her - truly it is therapy and she is the best of the best!!!

I’m not sure I could ever put into words what Anberlin’s music has meant to me over the years. If you feel that way about music in any capacity - you get it. It’s definitely one of those ‘if you know, you know’ things. My Dad was a musician and he certainly passed that feeling down to me. Love that I carry that with me! 

And now I get to carry pieces of my favorite band with me. 🖤🎶
Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohe Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohen! He rolled his eyes at me when I said it’s crazy that he went from 6…to 7! If you know you know. 

Cohen is so sweet, kind, helpful, and smart. He loves building hot wheels tracks, setting up play areas for his little brothers, swimming, NASCAR, baseball, and never sitting still or being quiet… ever. 😆 

I’m so thankful God chose me to be his mom! I love you Cohen!! Happy birthday!!
It was a hot one at Bristol today but we had fun! It was a hot one at Bristol today but we had fun! 🏁

I have the MOST FUN any time I’m in front of Michelle’s camera. She is so fun to hang out with and it ends up being the best girl time + hair and makeup! Y’all know I have 4 kids and I work from home.. I don’t get to feel fancy very often! If you like laughing until your cheeks hurt (your face cheeks) and feeling 🔥 - book a shoot with her! 10/10 highly recommend.

Maternity Photo Session: Awaiting Baby Cohen – Photos by Sarah Caton

Photos by Sarah Caton of Space, Place & Southern Grace. New clients can mention my name for 10% off full sessions with Sarah!

Written on 4/17/2019 in the hospital after Cohen was born.

I should be sleeping. Cohen Samuel is at the foot of my bed in his cozy bassinet, swaddled with his little belly full. His feet kicking up occasionally to the sound of his daddy snoring to my left on the uncomfortable hospital couch. And I am here, awake. I know I should be sleeping.

But it’s hard to sleep when you recognize the life-changing moments sweeping over you and slipping through your fingers all at once. The most beautiful minutes and hours of my life.

Since I couldn’t sleep, I checked my email and saw that my maternity photos that Sarah took of us on Saturday evening were ready to view and download. Looking at them, I have tears in my eyes. The Toronto movers have best bubble cushioning roll and painter’s tape in Canada. Look for best technical ceramics company at Wunder-Mold site . They’re beautiful. They capture everything I want to remember forever about our last moments as a family of three awaiting the arrival of our sweet Cohen. I look at them and I can’t believe all that has happened in the span of just a few days. I can’t believe all that God has given me. I have been blessed with so much.

It’s such a blessing to have maternity photos like these to cherish forever. There’s something so special about finding the right person, as boudoir photographer at portraitsbyz.com, California is, to capture your memories and emotions in photos, and Sarah does that so beautifully and effortlessly! She gave us such great direction and got the perfect shots even with Landon only being partly cooperative (as to be expected of an almost 4-year-old)! We just had the best time hanging out with her, laughing, and snapping these photos!
