Coming Out Of Hiatus

I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since I last blogged!  A lot has happened this past year - but the biggest event was the arrival of my second baby, Kyle.  It was a crazy year, to say the least.  But Kyle is now 3 months old and i’ve returned to work, so things have slightly returned to normal.  The most asked question this year has got to be “how’s Kareena with the little one?”.   We have been so blessed with Kareena - not only is she not jealous of Kyle, she is so eager to care for him and help out with baby duties.  She would help out with things like bringing me diapers and wipes during diaper changes, hold the baby bottle for me while I burp Kyle, throw Kyle’s dirty clothes and burp cloths into the hamper, and occasionally discipline our two dogs for barking when Kyle is sleeping.  Like Kenny and I, she fell in love with Kyle the moment she met him.  When I was pregnant last year, people would ask me if she knew the concept of me being pregnant and her having a little brother soon.  I’d always answer with, “yea! she’s really excited and she wants a little brother!”.  People found it hard to believe - after all, she wasn’t even two years old at the time.  It’s really quite amazing.  From the time I got pregnant back in May 2009, I had been prepping her for the big day - the day she’d meet her little brother or sister.  She’d always excitedly tell me that she wants a little brother and how she would play doll with him and cook mac & cheese for him. So I guess that’s why Kyle came as no surprise to her.  Plus when I was pregnant, she would sing and talk to my belly.  How cute was that?  Now those two are totally inseparable.  Some of my favorite photos of them:

Another piece of exciting news is that Kenny and I have decided to combine our photography business to become Phan Photography!  We’re working on the new logo and branding, so check back often to find out when we’ll be launching the new web site and blog!  Also, there are a couple of Boudoir sessions that I will be posting soon.  Thanks for visiting!  :)
