remembering now : december 20th 2012







The Remembering Now Project, 2012

Catch the rest of the series here.

This day, exactly a year ago, we made sugar cookies just you and I.  You were six months old and too little to help, so I wore you against my chest. This year you are much bigger, able to laugh and cut out stars, to proclaim excitedly "coooookie!" and of course - taste the sweet reward for putting in all that hard work.

  3. Ahh, so fun! What a great tradition to start :) I love her romper. And her hair! and her! Oh my, where have her pudgy legs gone? ;) I love the Remembering Now posts. I'm feeling inspired to document more for my family. I also love that you are sharing your weekly pregnancy photos. I know you aren't fond of being on the other side of the camera, but I am happy to be seeing more of you :)

  8. This is gorgeous! I wanted to do this with Everly so bad this year, but - alas - we had 45 degree weather yesterday so we decided to leave the oven off, understandably! Next year for sure. x

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.

"A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013." SOFIA:  You are my goofy child, my prankster.  You are the spitting image of your Papa, though every now and again I find some piece of myself in you and it makes me pause.  You are my lover, and you are my fighter.  You greet me in the morning with sweet, breathy kisses that only the mouth of a little girl can give.  I hope you will look back on this blog and find strength when you're feeling kicked-down, confidence when you're doubting your abilities, and daily reminders of how much love we have for you, for our home, for our marriage, for this little life we've made.  I am thankful for every day I get to be your mum, and you are certainly becoming the most beautiful soul I could have hoped to raise. This photo was a stand-out favorite, but you can find more from our day  here . TAKING PART IN THE 52 PORTRAIT SERIES  |  STARTED BY: CHE AND FIDEL
