Happy Monday! This week has been another crazy one :] We’re officially DONE with shooting weddings until the baby comes! I can’t believe that! It definitely has made the fact that baby Oliver is coming even more real. (i feel like we keep having those moments) It’s sad to be not shooting weddings for a few months, but the time off is much needed! And I’m officially to the point of pregnancy exhaustion that 9 hour days are killing my feet :] And there’s always the few engagement/portrait session that we have from now till January!

The last week had me traveling to Staunton for an engagement session (sneak peek below!!!) and staying close to home for this last fall wedding. And it was a joy! Of course, it felt like a super short week because we didn’t get back into town until Tuesday evening! But it was jam packed all the same. We did some house rearranging yesterday and started painting Ollie’s room! Eek! That means that we can start preparing for him, instead of keeping all these precious baby gifts in boxes! Also I can’t say that I mind having what was the former Harry Potter room…now shoved into our bedroom. There’s an armchair and an old bookcase taking up space next to our bed and it just makes me want to cozy up and read a book :]

How cute are Matt and Ashley?! They were so fun and we laughed their ENTIRE session!

Now for some feels:

• I’ve been caught in several adult conversations about Taco Bell the last few months…and the feedback is always the same: “I hate Taco Bell.” Well to the naysayers, I say, “Cheesy Gordita Crunch.”
• Neville has a new sweater, thanks to my sister. And it is the cutest. And all I want to do is snuggle with him.
• If you have ANY tips at all on how to do Wizarding World of Harry Potter right…let me know, because our vacation starts this SATURDAY! I’ve been told that the Park Hopper ticket that enables you to ride the Hogwarts Express is necessary (obviously) and that the butterbeer mugs in Diagon Alley are even better than the ones in Hogsmeade.
• Yesterday this sentence came out of my mouth: “You went to Charget in Targetsville?” That either means I’ve got baby brain…or Target on the brain. It’s a toss up. (I meant to say charlottesville and target, oops)
• Anyone know where I can find comfy, amazing Harry Potter apparel that can be rush shipped? I delayed planning my Hogwarts outfits a bit too long :] And yes, this is a serious inquiry.

George and Carolyn were our last couple of the year! Eek! Can’t wait to show it off! Two weeks full of good stuff on the blog coming your way, friends!
