<br />
Again and again I have wanted to sit in front of my computer and share special moments, funny things Sariah says, exciting news, etc. But priorities changed and sitting in front of my computer never really happens as it used to...and that is okay.<br />
<br />
My appearance here will probably remain somewhat unpredictable, but what matters the most is that Jesus is still in the driver's seat of my life and He is driving me to new landscapes, inviting me to take his hand and run toward new adventures.<br />
<br />
I hope to sit down more often and share bits and pieces of these new adventured with you!<br />
<br />

My life changed in so many ways two years ago. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After a fast labor and delivery, I sat in bed with a tiny person on my chest and I fell in love - nothing else mattered. I didn't care that I wasn't wearing make-up or that my hair was a mess. I forgot that a few minutes prior the contractions made me feel like I was being hit by a train again and again...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I held my daughter against my skin and I would not trade that moment for anything else in this world. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Two years later and that tiny person is bigger, full of spunk and no longer likes to sit still for more than 2 seconds. And I love her just the same. Every day that I get to spend with her is a precious gift. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I cannot imagine life without Sariah Faith and I so look forward to the adventures ahead! I cannot believe my tiny baby is now a two year old little girl. </div>

However, I cannot believe my little baby is now a two year old toddler.<br />
<br />
The toddler stage has been hard and tiring at times, but it has also been so much fun!<br />
<br />
I love to have conversations with my daughter. I love that she asks for Dada 20 times a day and talks about him when he is at work. I love to listen to her sing around the house. I love that she runs to me and gives me random kisses throughout the day. I love that we have a rhythm that works well for all of us. I love that she tries to be helpful and wants to do what I am doing.<br />
<br />
I love my girl!<br />
<br />
To celebrate her second birthday, the three of us packed a picnic and headed to Mt. Baker with no plans other than just having fun together. The photographer in me planned a mini-birthday session up in the mountains and I absolutely love these photos of Sariah surrounded by breathtaking views.<br />

Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in the FogJohn and I spent the weekend away from Sariah for the first time and headed over to the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. The weather had been gloriously warm and sunny for many days and we planned on hiking a couple of harder mountains together since we didn't have to carry Sariah along.<br />
<div>
<br />
By the time we arrived at our condo for the weekend, the clouds had rolled in and there was 100% chance of rain for the following day. But we didn't care because we were childless for the first time in almost two years and we needed the rest.<br />
<br />
Instead of conquering new peaks, we headed out in the rain and made our way up to the Heliotrope trail. It didn't take long before we started running into quite a few hikers who let us know that the creeks were looking more like rivers in the miles ahead and everyone was turning around because they couldn't cross them. We continued in order to see exactly what these creeks were like on an extra wet day. <br />
<br />
At one point, we removed our already wet hiking boots, tied them to our backpack and prepared ourselves mentally to cross a raging and frigid creek. John crossed first and I planned on going through right after him...but I freaked out. So there we were. Standing twelve feet away from each other, yelling as loud as we could because the creek was so loud we could hardly hear each other's voice. Our feet ached in the cold cataracts that continued to flow down as John encouraged me to take this route and then this other route. He told me he knew I could do it and that it looked scary, but the water was not deep and I could just hold on to these rocks on my right and run as fast as I could. He encouraged me and I loved him as I watched his hands move as he described each step to take at the top of his lungs. I didn't want to cross because I was scared. I didn't want to cross because I knew that if I crossed that creek I was going to have to cross it back. I didn't want to cross because my feet were totally numb. But I crossed because I was with him.<br />
<br />
That moment in our hike reminded me of hundreds of moments throughout our 6 years of marriage.<br />
<br />
Figuratively speaking, we have hiked many mountains and we have crossed frigid and raging creeks. We have seen beauty like never before and we have been cold, nervous, scared, but also excited. We have encouraged each other and we have been to places we would not want to go alone.<br />
<br />
Our anniversary weekend was so different from what we planned, but I know everything happened exactly the way God intended it to be - and I am glad He directs our paths.<br />

<br />
In some ways it feels like we have been a part of each other's life since we were born and in other ways it seems like just yesterday he helped me get out of my wedding dress and remove the 60+ pins that held my curly hair up.<br />
<br />
I could not have imagined the events that have become a part of our story over the past six years. We giggled every night when we went to bed together and no longer had to say goodbye at the end of a date night. We moved to a new city and discovered what it is like to live without community. We felt our tiny daughter move in my belly and we fell in love with our Creator all over again.<br />
<br />
We have hugged. We have kissed.<br />
<br />
We have been sleep deprived and we have felt discouraged.<br />
<br />
We have laughed. We have cried.<br />
<br />
We have apologized. We have prayed.<br />
<br />
We have experienced some of our toughest days this past year and we have made a commitment to restore the walls and repair the foundation of our relationship. The last few months have been hard and humbling. Sometimes we feel like we are taking three steps forward and five backwards, but we are trusting that God is leading us to a place we could never arrive on our own.<br />

John normally gives Sariah a shoulder ride and I decided this weekend that I needed to capture the extreme cuteness that I get to enjoy on a day to day basis.<br />
<br />
Sariah likes to give John 'head hugs' ... but these hugs are now accompanied by a drooling mouth and a very loving daddy who doesn't mind a bit of drool all over himself.<br />

She has no idea how much he loves her. She has no idea how much she has changed him.<br />
<br />
No one can make him laugh the way she does.<br />
<br />
No one looks at him the ways she does.<br />
<br />
There is nothing quite like the relationship between a daddy and his little girl and seeing these two together melts me again and again.<br />
<br />
Happy Father's Day to my John! I could not wish or hope for a better father to join me in this crazy parenthood adventure.<br />

I was afraid of messing this little life up in a million different ways. That little person is now a toddler who likes to imitate me - which is adorable and terrifying. It is cute that she tries to walk around the house wearing my heals, it is cute that she 'takes photos' with my phone, it is cute that she tries to put on my pearl necklace. It is not so cute that she also imitates my not-so-great behavior as well.<br />
<br />
Having Sariah around is like having a 24-7 shadow that is helping me change in really hard, but good ways. I am working on remaining calm when her tiny self is throwing a fit about something insignificant for the 5th time today because she needs to learn that there are other ways to deal with frustrating situations. I am working on understanding and respecting John because she needs to see what it is like to love and be loved. I am working on eating healthier because she needs to discover that there is more to life than eating bread. I am putting my phone away when I spend time with her because she needs to feel that I truly want to be with her.<br />
<br />
Being a mother is hard and at times I feel so intimidated and inadequate.<br />
<br />
But I am changing for the better and I am thankful that being Sariah's mother has given me more than enough motivation to change in really hard and good ways.<br />

<br />
However, he hates being woken up and is usually really grumpy and tries to turn over, hoping I will just leave her alone.<br />

Where did my mojo go?<br />
<br />
I do run around with my 18 month old all day and I have managed to still clean, do the laundry, cook and keep up with photography responsibilities, but I am completely exhausted at the end of the day. I miss the energetic me.<br />
<br />
Could it be the lack of sun and warmth? I <strike>should</strike> need to move to Hawaii!<br />
<br />
I have never enjoyed the dark, rainy days of the Pacific Northwest, but I feel like the weather impacts me more deeply as I get older - one would think I would be used to it by now. But instead, I wake up, look outside, see dark clouds and immediately want to go back to bed. I declared today would be "sweats" day and I still have not brushed my hair...it probably won't happen until tomorrow.<br />
<br />
I am not sure where my mojo went or if it will return with the sun, but for now, I am meditating on these words:<br />

I don't like to have a lot of stuff around and the less I have, the less I want to keep. The less I keep, the easier it is to maintain a clean and organized home.<br />
<br />
I have had a glass fish bowl that was part of our wedding center pieces that I didn't want to give away because it reminds me of one of the best days in my life...but I also didn't like the fact that it just sat on a self, collecting dust. A few weeks ago I found a few ideas for creating a terrarium on Pinterest and it turned out that I already had most of the materials to make one so my sister helped me make one - and I absolutely love it.<br />
<br />
I love to bring nature into my home and this little gem reminds me of all the time we spend hiking when it is not raining.<br />
<br />
Materials:<br />
- Fish bowl: From our wedding<br />
- Soil: I already had<br />
- Rocks: From our backyard<br />
- Moss: From our neighborhood<br />
- Succulents: I already had some...and got a few more at Home Depot<br />
<br />
This simple terrarium brings so much life to my living room! The best part is that Sariah has not destroyed it (at least not yet) and I am teaching her to take care of plants by watering them once in a while.<br />
