Baby A’s Birth Story | Lexington Medical Center

Birth

21 May

Birth photography– who would have ever thought of it?! Well, 4 yrs ago, being the picture-minded person that I am, I didn’t want my husband to miss a beat of his son being born for having to take pictures (which I knew we would want to capture, and obviously he would be the one doing it), so we graciously had a photographer in TN volunteer to photograph his birth (THANK you again Carrie!!!). I was a little skeered at first to have a PHOTOGRAPHER, but I look back now, and I am SO happy that, that was an option for us!!!

Well, about 2 weeks ago, I had the pleasure of welcoming a sweet baby girl into the world with my camera. She ended up being born by c-section, so unfortunately I wasn’t allowed back for that. However, there are still so many wonderful memories that transpire outside amongst the family that I was able to capture and share with mommy and daddy! 😀  So… enjoy baby A’s birth story!

    If I ever have another baby, you’re there!

    I’ve never seen the Bella Baby Photography thing. Very interesting. Have you ever seen any of it? I’m sure I’d much rather have you. 🙂

      😀 You just call me girl!!! Yeah, Bella Baby basically comes around to each baby born and takes their pics before they leave the hospital… if you desire it. They had something similar in TN when G was born, but we didn’t take them up on it.

Anytime we vacation, you can bet fishing and/or hunting will always be interspersed. 🤪 So, it’s a good thing I enjoy just being outdoors, walking creek and river banks, and taking pictures. But there *was* one said adventure where I thought for sure I was going to end up nose-to-nose with a grizzly, mountain lion, or moose. 😅 And it was cold and raining. lol 🫠 But we made the most of it! 

We also spent some time playing on one of the nearby lakes. We all even braved the cold water! 🥶🤣

We checked out one of the waterfowl viewing areas and grabbed pizza at our favorite little roadside restaurant where the kiddos love to play pool and Pac-Man. 🤣

Our next Montana adventure was a beautiful hike! Can’t go to Montana without putting in some steps. 😁 And it’s always the best when the hike includes amazing views along the way. It’s no big deal to pass people hiking and everyone has pistols strapped to their chests. Just an observation- which I don’t mind one bit. After all, we were in grizzly/ mountain lion/ moose country.  You can see on the wilderness sign that grizzlies have clawed it and bitten chunks out of it. 😅 I learned that the huge rock fields we passed attract grizzlies, where they source a certain type of moth for nutrition. They can be heard at times, flipping boulders in search of those moths. 

We also had our little sidekick Pippa along on the adventure, too! We fell in love with that little doggo while there. 🥰 And found an awesome patch of huckleberries rambling around on the national forest. They are SO. GOOD! So very thankful for the Cole family adventuring with us!

We arrived in Montana Aug. 1 and re-connected with our friends, who were so gracious to host us while visiting. (Seriously, so blessed! 🙏) Jason met Seth back in 2005ish through work, when both couples lived in Tennessee, and hit it off instantly. We have remained friends through having families, and moving in different directions, and now our kiddos have been able to grow up knowing each other.  Couples friends are hard to find in life and we don’t take that for granted!

The first adventure was a ride on the road up the mountain behind their house. Holy moly what a view, right in their backyard, basically! 😱

Our family is 21 years old today! 8/14/04 Thank you, Lord, for leading us to each other all those years ago as high school students. 🥹💜

We also recently finished a series of videos that I wish we would have had as newlyweds, so I want to share them with you today. So incredibly important as you walk through life in a marriage, because it’s downright HARD at times, but 100% worth it! 🙏

God of creation
There at the start
Before the beginning of time
With no point of reference
You spoke to the dark
And fleshed out the wonder of light… 
If creation still obeys you, so will I!

We’ve been to Montana and back the last 11 days!!! I have saved a highlight if you haven’t been following along in my stories. 💜 We had the most wonderful time as always visiting the best of friends and the wilds of a land that has forever captured our hearts! (For those new around here, we had the pleasure of living in Montana twice now- 2017 and 2019- for 4 months each time.) I have about 3k photos to sort through, between 3 different cameras (😆), so be prepared for a photo dump. We made it home last night at 2am, then dove right back into our first day of school (and homeschool community day) at 8:30am this morning. 😮‍💨The jet lag is real.
