For Father’s Day this year, I got John and Miles matching water guns and a bunch of water balloons with the idea of throwing a little backyard waterfight party for John. (Just call me big spender Betsy!) Miles was SO excited that just seeing the excitement on Miles’ face when he had the gifts for…

My dear friend Cassie had a baby 7 weeks ago and I knew the minute she made her way back to Fort Wayne I HAD to get her in the studio for a quickie photo shoot. (Owning your own biz means you can play hookie on your maternity leave for a an hour or so.)…

Betsy….I read your post last night and thought the images were beautiful, and shared them with a friend. Then because you posted the link on FB again…I came back and happened to see the updated note…
Cassie…you’re amazing. Thank you for the little glimpse of your faith and how it can grow from a tiny mustard seed. I’m in awe of the emotions that you must have felt….and wow. Girl, you’re going to be an AMAZING mother (not that you aren’t already).

LOVE THEM SO MUCH! hes the cutest little baby in the worldd !!

Cassie has blessed me tremendously with her candidness (is that even a word?) Anyways, I truly believe that God has created Avram prefect in His sight. Thank you for sharing Betsy and Cassie, the pitcures are all the more priceless/precious after reading their story – beautiful as always.

What gorgeous photos to capture their new addition Betsy!!! Just beautiful!
-
Ugh! They are so great! I can’t wait to hold HIM! 🙂 Can I order prints of these?
Here I am, 32 weeks and a few days. So I’ve got about 7 more weeks and I’m still feeling great. However, the little Braxton Hicks contractions are coming more and more often and this baby is kicking and squirming around like crazy. I still have lots of energy, but man oh man, I’m still…

LOVE this. that collage of you and your belly is so cool. Good luck girl! And thanks again for the info on the zoo, can’t wait to take the kids tomorrow!
-
You look great! I hope I look as great as you do when I’m pregnant one day:)
-
You look amazing Betsy!!! I think it is a girl!
-
That collage is so cool! And again, you look gorgeous 🙂
-
Ahhhh….I love this post! Between you and Tracy not finding out the sex, it’s killing me, BUT I think it’d be cool if one of you had a girl. That said, just want a healthy Baby King 2 🙂
-
i cant believe how fast this pregnancy has gone by! i feel like it was just march yesterday. eeee you are adorable
-
Great pictures – you look wonderful and happy. Okay I’m going against the grain here – I think it’s going to be a boy. Seasons seem to go with sexes and everyone I know delivering this summer is having a boy, this fall – a girl. So I think it’s a boy and I’ve always loved the name William – shortened to Liam. If I ever had another boy that’s what his name would be, but since I won’t be having anymore – I won’t get that chance. Enjoy these last weeks – they’ll be over before you know it. It will be hectic, but one day in the near future you wonder what in the world you ever did with your time when you only had one child. Promise. Take care!
-
Love this post Betsy. I so commend you for not finding out boy or girl. I just can’t do it! So excited to find out what King 2.0 will be!!!
-
you do pregnancy well. you look amazing. lvoe the chick chat. my sister didn’t find out with her first and stated it simply. “There are few surprizes in life that are totally amazing.” After she told me that I totally got it. It makes the experience of labor such an adrenoline (spelling?) rush. Good luck with the last 7 weeks. Can’t wait to see update and the little one.
-
Great maternity pics Betsy. You look wonderful. Best of luck to you and John!
-
You look adorable. And very happy. I didn’t know the sex of either of my children ahead of time, and yes, it was very exciting and wonderfully tearful at the end! Good luck, sweetie. Meditation, peace, and serenity sound like winning ideas for these last weeks of your pregnancy 🙂

I love reading your chick chat posts! These last weeks will go pretty fast I bet so enjoy the time you have with just Miles. 🙂 Your pregnancy pics are just gorgeous..your simply glowing!
Also, thanks for the tip on H&M! I can never find the shirts I want due to length. I’m making a trip to H& M SOON!
-
Oh my goodness Betsy! You are adorable! You look amazing! And no worries, two kids is a piece of cake! Promise 🙂
-
You look great Betsy! I wanted to let you know that 2 kids is a piece of cake! What will blow you away is how grown up Miles will seem and will start to be after your baby is around. My oldest, Ethan, was 3 when our 2nd was born and he was a huge help and seemed so mature! I know you’re not asking for advice, but the best advice I can give you for 2 kids is try to have some personal time for both. Set aside time for Miles and only Miles and set aside time for the new babe and only the new babe. You can do it! It’s a natural instinct for good mom’s and you are a great mom! God bless you and your family.
-
You look fab!! And you and John will be wonderful parents of TWO! =) Much love to you and your darling family!
-
Fun fun fun!!! You look gorgeous! We didn’t know with the little Bug and it was the most amazing moment when he was born and our awesome midwife didn’t say who came out, just plopped him on my abdomen and said “look what you have!” It was truly amazing; I would do it again (the not knowing) in a heartbeat. =) Of course, we didn’t have a boy name, but did have a girl name, so that was challenging. 😉 Of course it had to be that way, HA!
-
Uhm… I’m kind of obsessed with that collage… wait. no.. I AM obsessed with it! COULD YOU BE ANY FLIPPING CUTER?!!?
-
You look fabulous! Love the collage.
Some dear friends of mine here in town threw me the sweetest baby shower this past weekend. I knew before the day even came that it would be a beautiful morning and that I would feel so loved. So I wanted to make sure I created a little hostess gift to show my appreciation. What…

the buttons turned out super cute. way to craft!
Today I was in the studio to photograph some dear friends and their baby just for fun, so since I already had the stuff dragged out at the studio, I had our family do a super quick studio session to get our pictures updated. Miles has this nightly ritual of putting on his puppy towel…

What a gorgeous pregger mama you are! And Miles, well, he’s always a cutie. I admire your photography so much and after a hard weekend shooting my first wedding as a favor to a friend and no charge I realized I have so much to learn! 🙂
This has to be one of my favorite posts of all time! I LOVE the pics of Miles on the train and especially the one where he is staring out the train and his cute profile and he is looking so serious;__) I swear John looks like one of the happiest fathers I’ve ever seen!!! His emotions are just all over his face;) HAPPY FATHER’S DAY JOHN;)
Betsy,
Every time I see that little blankie I made for Miles in one of your posts, it warms my heart. I cannot believe how much he loves that simple little piece of crocheted work.In fact, I cant believe it has held up so well. I love reading your blog, and seeing all of your wonderful photos.
Watching John with Miles makes me SO excited to watch Jason with Avram as he gets older. Major props to you for making that trip…I could barely handle the 5 minute train ride to school during my third trimester…let alone a steam engine ride & a car ride to MI! Good for you! 🙂
