"A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013."

SOFIA:  Quick to pull out the latest treasure found from my luggage, a handwoven colorful serape that was purchased in Mexico.  We have a game we call "casita" where you run and hide underneath a blanket and pretend it's your house - you giggled over and over until you were too tired to keep playing.  We missed you so much on this trip, I still laugh to myself thinking how every night your Papa and I would sit and talk in our bed, thinking about all the silly things you do with the biggest grins on our faces.

    oh my word, she's the best.

    sean and i have a really hard time away from our girl too. just last night she stayed with her grandparents and we couldn't help but sit in bed, bringing up all the funny things she does. we try to mimic her and then we laugh and laugh - missing her dearly. often times, we drop her off with family for the night, head on a dinner date, then after, go right back to visit with her before heading home alone. we can't help it! my parents just roll their eyes like we're insane...

    i wouldn't have it any other way though! ...as if i really have a choice ;)

    The colors and patterns in this photo are beautiful, and Sofia is just such a little sweetie! I have yet to be away from Chloe overnight, but I know one day when it happens it will be so hard at first.

    I always enjoy coming over here and looking at your photos. I look at them as a standard that I want my photos to be. This one is no exception. The warmth and grain of the wood contrasting with the brightness of the serape is perfection. And those cheeky eyes popping out from it all - icing on the cake.

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
