Here I am prepping a blog post, feeling all timid and shy because it’s been nearly a month since I last blogged. To say we’ve had an interesting fall (or make that year) with sickness taking over our house, would be a drastic understatement. I always wanted 4 kids, but pre-kids I never really thought about how one gets sick and then a week later the next, and so on, and so on, until the first one catches it right when the 4th one is finishing it up-a month later. Bring on round 2. Yep. Welcome to my last month or so.

I’ve had some insane-borderline comical moments literally sitting and wondering if I would ever leave home again–and then one day when I left after not stepping OUTSIDE my door for TEN DAYS, I almost felt like I had a case of culture shock going on. I guess a reverse case of “cabin-fever” you could say. ;)

Here’s hoping that this fog (or month long hangover is more what it feels like) is lifting.  I’ve been trying to take it in stride and realizing it will pass, Lord willing. This gorgeous fall sprinkled with Indian Summer weather has been a treat, and the days we’ve been able to be outside and get fresh air have been wonderful, much needed mood-lifters.

Surprisingly, we have managed to get out and still shoot here and there. I have loads of sessions to blog, personal trips and tidbits, but for now here are a few of my fall instagram favorites. No matter how crazy my life gets, I still instagram nearly every single day. It’s my quick little creative outlet.

I plan on being back in the groove and playing catch up, so I’ll see you again soon. I hope. ;)
