Horse farm

We have recently visited a horse farm here in Marietta (the same one we have visited last year) and we had a fantastic time. Noah was very sick with another ear infection the day before so this was a perfect get away for him into the nature :) He loved to feed the horses with carrots (although he was a bit disappointed that he couldn't ride a horse because the family was getting ready for the horse show)and he also loved to chase the family cat. We spent good 2 hours on the farm and took some cool pictures while there. Here are just a few of my favorites:

Noah and 10 weeks old baby Leah.


My beautiful Leah :)

My both sweethearts.


Cat lover :)

Babcia and Leah...


Beautiful babcia Ewa!


I am in love with this picture.


Absolutely adore this :)

Noah and his big boy bike :)

Today in the afternoon me and Noah went outside so Noah could ride his new Thomas the Train bike. He had no interest in using his baby bike anymore and was always into big boy bikes (He always watched Will and Andrew riding their big bikes only that they are way older than Noah). Long story short, I had to buy him a new bike. I wasn't sure if Noah was ready to ride a bigger bike but he is just natural. He pedals with no problems and is as fast as lightning :) I could barely keep up with him. Way to go Noah!

Noah's 1st haircut

The day has finally come when Noah had to have his first haircut. I have been being pressured from various sides about taking him to a hairdresser that i eventually had to give up and accept the awful truth: my little baby is a boy now and i can't hold on to his locks forever. As hard as it was for me, I do like his new hairdo. It's just that he looks so grown up now :( Nevertheless i took Noah to Pigtails & Crewcuts and he was just a perfect customer. Not even once did he cry or fuss about it. He just waited patiently until the lady was done so e could play with dinosaurs and Thomas the Train. I am so proud of you! To me you you will always be a little baby boy.

This is what we started with...my sweet baby boy :)





Babcia and Leah chilling...


Lollipop for a great customer :)

Before and after :)

Leah and mommy...

Ever since Leah was born i wanted to do a special session with me, however i never felt like it's a good time for it given that i have put on so much weight during this second pregnancy that i still have to wear my pregnancy clothes as i type this :)But today i got up with a different attitude and decided to go on the other side of the camera despite of the awkwardness that i feel about it. I promised myself not to criticize my body but rather feel lucky and happy that I am perfectly healthy, energetic and strong. As long as all my body parts work, I am thankful to God for the body i have and i have never felt more comfortable in my own skin as i do now. I only hope that my kids will always feel proud of their bodies no matter of their size and shape as long as they eat and stay healthy. I truly believe that human body is the temple of ones soul so I try to respect it by eating mainly foods that positively fuel my body and mind and i try to instill these believes upon my children.

Anyways, i will only have one daughter and i thought this photo shoot will be special for both of us. I wish I had similar pictures with my mom but at the times that i was born, they barely had a black and white film so all i have is just a few photos of myself from my toddlerhood and none from my infancy period. How sad is that? So many times i wish i could just sit on the floor and go through the pictures from my childhood, remembering every single, special moment with my family. This is why i decided it will be different with my kids and so far I am keeping my promise. I always try to keep promises about everything in life and I will always do so no matter what. Anyways, so these pictures are for you Leah, my sweet and wonderful daughter. I am so blessed to have you and Noah in my life.
