I have totally neglected my blog for 2 weeks! Can not believe it's another Saturday... and still haven't done anything to the blog. sigh...
Been a crazy 2 weeks. A wonderful wedding, lots of photo taking, lots of editing, business planning, playing craft with sommer trying to figure out what our new blog's gonna look like, doing wifey stuff and mothering stuff.
all.... definitely are fun stuff and i love them all.

So here is a pic of my little one before this weekend starts. Hope you all had a wonderful start of the weekend!

amazing grace.

"Life is a classroom. We are both student and teacher. each day is test. and each day we receive a passing or failing grade in one particular subject: grace.

Grace is compassion, gratitude, surrender, faith, forgiveness, good manners, reverence, and the list goes on. it's something money can't buy and credentials rarely produce. bring the smartest, the prettiest, the most talented, the richest, or even the poorest, can't help. being hmble person can and being a helpful person can guide you through your days with grace and gratitude."
-- Amazing Grace by Philosophy.

that is what it says on my shampoo bottle? i do love quirky things.

one other thing, today has been an awesome Saturday.

:: did lots of washing in the morning, went to the farmers market with Tavé and enjoyed freshly squeezed juice, got some organic eggs and produce, watched Toy Story 3 with Tavé and Jeremy, had a nap with the family (bless....), and then, had a wonderful afternoon with the girls and cute photoshoot, wait wait wait... my day didn't stop there... i had a bubble tea afterwards, and when i got home, Tavé and I watched Barbie and cuddled together with the little tent i made in the living room:: what a perfect day!

God is GOOD!!!

the artist in me.

Who would've thought I could paint. hahaha. here are some of the "abstract" paintings i did for jeremy's work. thank goodness it's done! DONE!!!!!!

my little child has been a bit left out since mommy's been busy busy busy as a bee. Funny that when i don't pay attention to her, she'd get so annoying and trying so hard to get my attention. mmmm.... do i need to be a rocket scientist to figure that one out?

You've got mommy's attention now, Tave. especially when you kiss me along with your flu-ey slobbery nose that get stuck on my lips. ahhhh, mother's love, i tell you. the best.

love mae.

I have to admit it's been more than a year since i've been eye-ing on these cute stickers. I went to their website www.lovemae.com.au and was in love with every single thing they've got! gaahhhhh
so here's me being smart, i thought, "i shall save some money and get every single thing in there" and a year later.... i am screaming in joyfullness when i received my first mini mae order for my macbook! (it's one thing at a time, people...)

sigh... i'm a sucker to prettiness! and as you know, little miss Tavé wants the same thing as mommy and keep screaming "that owl is mine, mommy!!!" we came up with this.

Emily, you are amazing! thank you so much for the surprise!!! yay!

van halen.

what a lovely afternoon I had hanging out and having fun with mrs Sashie and her new bubby... Halen Beau Deacon.
sigh... what a handsome little man... you just can't help but cuddle, abit of kisses here and there... and cuddle some more.

lol for the photos, Sash. the last ones are just too funny. good thing you both are still intact. hehe

The simple things in life.

Thank you miss Amy for showing me 1000 Awesome things. This guy wrote this blog when his life wasn't even in the greatest season of his life, and yet, he determined to talk about one simple, universal little joy every single day — like snow days, bakery air or popping bubble wrap.

We sometimes take our life let alone our "today" for granted sometimes. Why don't we see what God has done instead of what He hasn't done? That could... and possibly guaranteed to change your world.

"Today is the tommorrow you worried about yesterday."

to the kiwi land we go.

so... stepping out of my comfort zone right now and opening up a overseas session for family, children, baby, maternity or simply just "take my photos, will ya?" session. And the lucky first overseas session is picked in lovely NEW ZEALAND! well, it's not so much overseas (echo: overseas)... it's home. It's where I spent my teenage years... it's where my hubby's from... and it's where we met... back in high school in grade 11 (grade 10 australian)... bless.

so New Zealand it is! if you're interested on booking or knowing about details, simply please email me and say gid'day at renita@renitastuart.com

as for this lovely momma and little boy, recently had a lovely session at currumbin valley. sigh, i didn't know such pretty place exist, we had a wonderful time!
