Song | Afraid


" When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
when I wake up I'm afraid, someone else might end up being me. "

" A portrait of my child, once a week, every week in 2013"

Chloe, mining for "gold" at the pumpkin patch. Yesterday afternoon after Chloe and I dropped Mike off at work we headed over to our nearest pumpkin patch for a little spontaneous adventure. I cant even begin to tell you how much fun we had together, just the two of us. We fed the animals at petting zoo, mined for gold, took a bumpy tractor train ride, and jumped around in a big pumpkin jump house. I'm so happy this trip to the pumpkin patch turned out better then the last time we tried to go!

Portraits that inspired me from week 42, The Stork and the Bean Stalk, alight, little sleep, and Mon Pertit Cirque.

Chloe, in her Daddy's arms, curiously watching all the animals at the pumpkin patch.

Mike and I have made it a family tradition to take Chloe to the pumpkin patch every Autumn. It has always been one of my favorite things to do together as a family, and this year was even more special because Mike's older brother Scott was in town visiting. Unfortunately though the day did not go as planned, we got there later then I was hoping, it was unbelievably crowded and Chloe was tired, grumpy, and over stimulated. After numerous meltdowns and tears ( from us all ) we decided to leave early. I'm not going to lie I was pretty disappointed we had to leave so much earlier then planned but when you're a parent that's just the way life is at times.

Portraits that inspired me from week 41, this little portCute & Peculiar, We Stood Together, and Monique Tyacke.

Chloe, I am constantly amazed by her love for music and how much she already understands of it at such a young age. She is truly so much like her Daddy, it melts my heart.
Portraits that inspired me from week 40, this brown wren, a little pink a little blue, alight, and Fercute.

Chloe, swinging on a big kid swing! It's moments like these ones that leave me in awe over how quickly my little girl has grown, from once a tiny, sleepy, newborn baby to now this beautiful, independent, wild two year old full of so much joy and excitement. Makes my heart ache.

Portraits that inspired me from week 39, Milk Please Mum, Little Moments, little earth stories, and lovelies in my life.
