Mom Life | Mother-Daughter Lifestyle Session
This Summer was different for everyone, but especially different for me being pregnant and preparing for our second child. Not only am I navigating this pandemic, but also trying to stay present and cherish my last Summer with Lillian as an only child. Usually I am the one behind the camera snapping and recording her

Mommy & Me | Matching for Mother’s Day
Mommy & Me | Mother’s Day 2020 Matching with my mini me will never get old… to me, at least. Maybe to her! But I found us both these sweet navy and white gingham sundresses weeks, if not months ago. I knew that I wanted to wear them for Mother’s Day pics with Lillian. That

Baby No 2 | Gender Reveal
IT’S A BOY!!!! That’s right! Baby Henesy is a boy. We were blessed with a daughter and now we’ll have a son to complete our family. I would’ve been ecstatic either way (I mean two little girls would’ve been adorable), but I’m feeling lucky to have one of each and to give my husband a

Spring Style | Floral Dress at the Domes
Nothing says Spring like a flowy floral dress. Okay, maybe tulips and budding leaves and birds chirping…. But until then, we’ll prep for Spring style and visit the Domes, Milwaukee’s giant Horticulture conservatory. Lillian also loves visiting the domes and she goes almost everywhere with me. I also wanted to take this opportunity to get

Mom Style | Pink Stripes by PinkBlush
Exploring the Milwaukee Domes with my little photographer Is it Springtime yet?? No, not yet. Several more weeks. And I have to say I’ve been getting some cabin fever over here, in stay at home mom life at the Henesy house. Lillian and I really needed to get out and see some plant life and

DIY Dollhouse Bookcase
As our sweet little Lillian grew from babyhood to toddler life we did the standard transition tasks, like baby gates, dropping the mattress down, and my husband adorably anchoring all the furniture to the wall. We did have to remove the gorgeous starburst mirror from over her changing table until she recently because she kept

March Madness
As the month of March comes to a close I realized I’ve been dealing with a pregnancy loss for almost the entire month. This is some serious March Madness for me! And at times I definitely feel mad about it. So it seems only fitting to write about the pregnancy loss. One more time. If

Lillian ~ 2 Years Old
Lillian Caroline Baby girl is officially not a baby anymore! Two years old equals toddlerhood and I can say her age in years instead of months. Last year for her first birthday I went all out!

Mother-Daughter ~ Fall 2018
A couple weeks ago we did a Lauren and Lillian “mommy and me” session in a sunflower field and apple orchard with Kat of Double You Photography while we waited for daddy to meet us for family pics. So grateful to have some mother-daughter moments captured, as I’m usually the one holding the camera! I

Momming in a Midi-Dress
This afternoon with Lillian was not the first, and I’m sure won’t be the last time that I’m the only mom at the park wearing a dress. Maybe I’m crazy for getting dressed up in mom life. Maybe I’m just a fashion fanatic. Maybe looking good just makes me feel good and love living in
