i can hardly believe how quickly october came and went.
she ushered in all sorts of craziness...heat and snow and november before we knew it.
the house is littered with balled up tissues and empty candy wrappers. a sure sign of the season.
wishing you all a happy happy november and wonderful weekend!
and a little side note: i feel like i've done a rotten job at letting you all know how much i appreciate you...your kind comments and emails and just visiting here in general! a lot of your questions have gone unanswered and i would love to fix that! i think life has just swallowed up this blog and i need to clean house around here a bit...my "about" page hasn't been updated in 2 years for goodness sake!
i'm working on a Q&A post of sorts...to answer common questions i get! so if there are any questions you've been wondering about please feel free to leave them here!
i'll start answering them next week...
xoxo
Happy weekend to you and your beautiful family.

Such beautiful pics! I love the wood paneling on your floor as well!!
ReplyDeletethis isn't a question, but i really just love the way you set up these posts. these sneaky peeks into your life are fabulous. i guess if i had to ask a question though, i'd ask about your paintings : how to begin? where do you put them once your finished? etc etc.
ReplyDeleteYour photos always remind me of the movie magic we all hope to be out there in real life. I'm so happy for your family. I hope you're doing well and loving every minute of mommy hood! Can't wait til it's my turn! <3
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt's true–Oh my, I see dancingams on there!
I just want to know... when can I see you? ;)
love this photo set! And you, my dear, are looking gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteyour little girl is absolutely beautiful.

Oh I have gt a question. How do you take such beautiful pictures? How do you 'plan' them? I have been following you for so long and guess this is the first time I'm leaving a message to you. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful stories with us.
ReplyDeleteyour blog brightens my day. i love seeing all of the beautiful images you capture of your gorgeous family.
ReplyDeletewhat i love most about your blog is you are honest about who you are, you don't try to be someone else or compete with other bloggers (i feel like there is a lot of competition out there in blog land and it is very sad)... but you are just you. you document the good and the bad and you don't try to portray the perfect cookie cutter blogger. i so admire that and i hope that i can emulate that as a blogger as well.
my question is, and you may have answered it before and i just don't know, but: did you study art in college? and what college did you attend? basically, how did you learn how to be such a talented artist. i love your paintings and though i've always been artistic, i've never had formal training in painting and i'd like to know more. thanks!
hope you have a lovely friday!

I literally went awww as I saw the first photo. Bee and I are wearing the same cardigan with elbow patches : )
ReplyDeleteI appreciate all of the inspiration and warm wonderful energy you give out. I always love visiting here no matter how updated things are or aren't. Life can definitely take precedence sometimes!
ReplyDeleteI would love to know more about your paintings and training, inspiration, etc. Do you have your own work space/studio? And also what were your fave go-to's regarding maternity style?
Can't wait for your Q&A!

Oh, those baby toes...
ReplyDeleteDo you have or plan on prints for sale online? It would be the most special thing to own a piece of your work.
ReplyDeleteSnow?! As a snow addict I am very envious. Your blog always feels fresh and lovely to me. When you have time, I would love to see more of your house, your space seems amazing and it looks like there's been some changes brewing :)

You and your flawless photos always leave me stunned.

Aaaww cute baby toes! Love ur photos. What camera do you use? :)
ReplyDeleteOops i just found the answer on ur blog :/ sorry for that.
DeleteI would love to see more of your tattoos. They look absolutely stunning. Other than that, I think your blog is truly inspirational and unpretentious. x
ReplyDeletei have a question! would you share your wedding photos with us?!
ReplyDeleteI have been following you quite some time and just love your words and photographs, just reading your blog lifts my spirit so, and your two little munchkins are the cutest!I agree with the question above, wedding photos please! And what is yours and Bee's schedule during the days?
ReplyDeleteI love your photography and the way you put them all together, the way the colour scheme always matches too. It seriously looks like a magazine spread! Have you got any tips on how to collate and group photos the way you do...and what programme do you use to do this? Photoshop etc. Thank you! Viki
ReplyDeleteEeep, so excited to hear you're doing a q&a post soon! okay, i have two! one of which is just - could you show more of your paintings and actual artwork (is there maybe a reason why you don't?)?!
ReplyDeleteand another - my absolute favorite thing about you and matt is how opposite you appear to be (because of his dreads and your girly wardrobe, act.) but how amazing and beautiful your family is. do you ever get strange looks or comments when you're together and how do you handle these situations?
Cuteness overdose because of clothing :'D
ReplyDeleteWhere can I buy one of your paintings ? Please please please!
ReplyDeleteMe too, I want to know more about your paintings. I love the little bits you show us on here but I'd love to see more and hear about how you go about painting and what materials you use.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog, it's really beautiful. Thank you for writing it.

How do you juggle being a mom, a blogger, and an artist? Do you still work as an art teacher? Has it been a big adjustment having a little one in the house again? How did you and Matt meet, fall in love, etc? Does Matt do art as well (besides tattooing and Bee's wonderful wall)? Do you like where you live?
ReplyDeleteHey Katie I was curious on what you guys decided about Bee's vaccinations?
ReplyDeleteHey! My name is Pili and I am from Spain, I've just discovered your blog and I must say that is amazing! you are a great photograph! :) would you mind cheking mine?
ReplyDeleteLove,
Pili.

I just found your blog over at A Beautiful Mess and I love your photographs they are so beautiful! Makes me want to get my camera out and practice even more, they are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteYou have the cutest blog! Just stumbled in it through Beautiful Mess!
ReplyDeleteoh i'd love to know more about your husbands facial/long hair. it's intriguing!
ReplyDeleteWhat does an average day look like? How much work do you usually do a week with art? This is my first time commenting, but I was curious to know! Your photos are so crisp and full of light, and your family is so sweet :)
ReplyDeleteOnly popping in to say that you look GORGEOUS in the most natural, carefree way in that top photo. And I am jealous.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about you and Matt. Are you married and if not, do you plan on getting married one day?
ReplyDeletewonderful images!
ReplyDeleteI know I'm probably too late on this but What are your favorite places to buy clothing for Bee?
