So…blogging for us is clearly one of our BIGGEST weaknesses. Since we haven’t posted anything since spring, I thought I would give you a Windmills News Flash to catch you up on all that we have been doing. It has been quite a busy summer.
*All 7 kids have been at home with us EVERY day ALL day since school got out. (enough said for the lack of posts)
*I (Brooke) am expecting our third child! My hubby and I are really excited to be adding a boy to our mix. We have WAY too many girl emotions running around our house right now so the change will be fun. I am convinced that my hubby is trying to figure out a way to get a football in my tummy so that by the time Maddox comes out he will be able to throw for 700 yards and lead his team (The Broncos-of course) all the way to the Super Bowl. Maddox Maddox he’s our man, if he can’t do it nobody can!!! Oops, the inner cheerleader in me came out.
*Amy has been busy picking up my slack due to morning sickness and hormones, (what in the world would I do without you???) going to the beach with the family, running a drama camp at school with her super talented hubby, planting yummy veggies in the garden at her grandparents farm, (I have yet to get the first tomato. Does she not know that holding food from a preggo woman is a huge No-No), running VBS at her church, and the list goes on and on. I don’t know how she does it all, but I am starting to think that she has a wonder woman suit under her clothes. That is the only way she could do all that she does. I am hoping one day she will let me in on her secret.
*One night while I was on the phone with a client my sweet little Ava came screaming down the hall holding her arm. While trying to calm her down, I realized that her arm was bent in half and her bones were all but sticking out of her skin. I am not even sure what I said to the lady on the phone but I am sure it had nothing to do with packages or session styles. We rushed her to the ER and she had broken both of the bones in her arm and would now be in a cast for 8 weeks. So long summer!!! Getting everyone to the pool in one piece takes a miracle normally so add having to cover a 3 year olds cast in a bag without cutting the circulation off of her arm and one really doesn’t want to go swimming so much anymore. She will finally get her cast off on Aug. 5th and we are leaving for the beach the next day. I am about to die to get in the sun.
*We have been so blessed by all of the work we have had this summer. We have had some great shoots with some great families and are so excited about the rest of the year. We have so many things planned and can’t wait to share some of our ideas with you. Once these wonderful but crazy kids all get back in school and we begin to feel like normal women who have brains again then you better hold on to your hats because we are ready to conquer the world. For now, I will leave you with a picture of my 4 month preggo belly.
