***Pictures property of Elisa Petersen Photography***
Elisa was our nanny for a year, but it feels like longer. She just naturally fit with our family and it was very easy with her around. She is a natural with children and obviously with photography as well (check out her site here). I wanted to share some of the pictures she took over the past year highlighting a few of the fun times she, Milo, and Oliver had together. We were lucky to visit with her on Wednesday afternoon, which was fantastic. The boys just love her. Don’t be a stranger, Elisa!
Other faces we have been missing? Family and friends flung far and wide across this country. It is getting harder and harder to be far away from family as our kids grow older. How awesome it would be to drive 10 minutes down the road to hang out with grandma or the boys’ many cousins! But for now we will have to make more of an effort to arrange trips to visit.
We are really looking forward to my own mama’s visit this weekend… we are expecting cool sunny weather– perfect for walks through the wooded neighborhoods surrounding our house on our way to breakfast or the playground! I have a feeling we will be breaking out the sweaters and boots tomorrow!
Have a lovely weekend.
I hope your visit with your mom is great! I completely understand the distance thing, because most of my family and friends live in other states. I really envy the people who get to see their families regularly for a casual dinner or get-together.
Love all of the pictures, so sweet that she documented her days with the boys. Enjoy you visit with your mom, hope you all have a great week-end!
Hi Stranger! Gorgeous photos, and I love your new header. Have such a great time with your mom. We’re far away from all of our family too (which can be bad… and good!), so I hear what you’re saying. How’s your head been lately? Late summer/early fall is the worst time of year for me, but I’m hanging on! xo
It always helps to have mega-cute subjects.
In that photo inside the head at citygarden, Milo was pretending to be a bear in a cave.
