So here we are, 13/13 Me & Mine posts. I’m sad to say, I did miss the 12/13 post, simply because life was insane trying to prepare for baby and finalize all my work, plus keep up with family life. Something had to go. Thankfully, all of that busyness came to a nice ending on Thursday evening, November 29th, as I shut down my computer at 10:30 pm, done pretty much everything I needed to do before baby arrived. Then at 2 am, Friday November 30th, I woke up in labor… fantastic timing this babe has! She was born into the world at 7:44 am, healthy and perfect in every way.

      Just in time for the last Me & Mine post of the year- I’m so proud and happy to introduce Zion Jewel Donker. Blessing #4 for Greg and I, a sister to Kyara, Eden and Kingston. She weighed 6 lbs, 15 oz- our smallest baby yet. Life has been crazy and yet that much better since she has arrived. I have found a new peace… one that comes over me when I hold my new babes in my arms. I honestly believe that I am made to have newborns – I adore every single moment with her and I’m looking forward to staying indoors and cuddling all winter long! God has blessed us so richly!

      Well said Tam! That peace that comes over you when you hold your new babe – I know exactly what you mean!

      She, and you, are pure beauty, Tamsen! Congratulations! I don’t know how you do it all with four children now and stay so beautiful and picture perfect in every image. That is an inspiration to ME! Take the time to fix myself… most of the time that is last on my list. Your images are so happy, and I’m thrilled to read it is all going so well.

      and thanks for the sweet compliment about me and being real. : )
