this wedding was sweet and beautiful!  laura and susie two met 6 years ago through a job and fell in love quickly.  they moved to maine to work and knew that this is where they would be married.  these two were fun brides and I learned that it sure does take a lot longer for two brides to get ready.  we shot along the coast of maine and in a national forest prior to the ceremony and it was beautiful (minus the rain).  the reception was held at a beautiful home with an attached barn where they had an early dinner with friends and family.  this misty wedding day was a beautiful affair.

stella is going to turn 4 this year and we thought it may be time for a second one in the family.  well, we found out a couple of weeks earlier that we were in fact expecting a number 2!  i am excited about this new chapter in our lives.  it will be fun for stel to have a friend to play with and most likely boss around.  i think that she is tired of playing with her imaginary friends.  this morning she told me about her new little mouse friend that she was talking to!  any guesses on what the gender will be?  here are my cravings: veggies, fruit, salty snacks, root beer, and lots more!  no morning sickness is a plus too.  here is a link to the video (it was fun to see the heart beat and little "b" moving.
