In these photos, I was about 14 weeks pregnant with our Nora! We had an infant, a one-year-old, and a 3 year old. What a wild season of our life. Kelsey captured our family so beautifully!

With a wild and energetic three-year-old on our hands, we knew we needed a party where she would be able to get out and PLAY! We knew we wanted to find a venue because we had just hosted a first birthday party in our home a few weeks prior. We landed at Ballyhoo Petting Zoo, which couldn’t have been more perfect!

At the time we took these photos, we had no idea how long Teddy would be a part of our family. He came to us as a tiny, 5-pound baby straight from the hospital. We knew we wanted to document the start of his life and the time he spent with our family. Little did we know he would be staying forever! These photos are such a gift to us looking back on his story.

February is officially here — one of my favorite months of the year! Between Valentine’s Day and my birthday, it’s always a month full of the sweetest celebration. And since having kids, it’s been even sweeter! I already know that Valentine’s Day is going to be one of Addie’s favorite holidays yet — she loves gifts, decorations, fun food, treats, and of course, pink.

Two months already?! This little guy has settled so well into our little family. He truly is the happiest baby around! He smiles + coos all day long — at me + Erick, at his sister, at the puppies, at his toys… he isn’t shy to share his sweet gummy smile. 😉 He’s eating and growing like a champ, and starting to sleep longer stretches. Overall, life with two kids has been the most fun we’ve had yet!

When planning Addie’s second birthday party, we had a unique challenge… we would have a baby who would be just a few weeks old at party time! There is nothing I love more than celebrating, so I knew I didn’t want to forego a party altogether. But, in order to make it work, we had to keep it simple! So, we decided to host her party at a local park and invite all of her friends to a lunch picnic.

I’ve had to sit down a handful of times to write this because I can’t quite put into words how precious this past month has been to us. I can hardly believe we’re already here! These first few weeks with Everett have truly been some of the sweetest we’ve gotten to experience yet. Having him here with us feels so right — like the piece of our family we didn’t know was missing.

It is the deepest honor + privilege to introduce you to our son — Everett “Rhett” Troy Hooker. He made his arrival on August 10th at 1:28pm after just two pushes at a whopping 9lbs. 5oz. and 21.5 inches! His entire birth story was the wildest, hardest, sweetest, most redemptive gift from God. It feels like we’ve waited a lifetime to have him in our arms and we could not be more overjoyed that he’s finally here.
