Amidst the Darkness

There is a bit of a dark cloud upon me today.....

My hubby was diagnosed with a blood clot in his leg yesterday.....

Why he got this, we don't know.....

He is young and active so it is a bit unusual.

I am a worrier....I worry that it could be something awful.

I worry because of the unknown.

Until we know more, I will feel this heaviness upon me.

Hopefully, I will be able to breathe again soon....

Amidst this darkness, our sweet baby boy turned 8 months old this past weekend.

He is growing up before my eyes.....

Closer to 1 than a baby....

so curious...

those babbles...

that toothless grin....

his wild and crazy hair....typically full of snarls

the giggles and belly laughs...

the way he stares at his brother with adoration....

his cries of frustration.....for he wants to crawl so badly but just can't quite do it yet.....

all he wants to do is climb up and stand...maybe he will go straight to walking....

only time will tell.....

if only he could just stay a baby a while longer........

love you to the moon and back my little Max.........

Will be praying for you and the hubby. So thankful it was caught early. Max is just darling, too.

So scary! Will keep you and your husband in my prayers.
These photos are lovely. Lovely dark captures. Love the third and the sixth. They grow-up too fast. Wish I could give him a squeeze! xo.

Holy Molly, these photos put a lump in my throat (that's a good thing) they are gorgeous.
I'm so sorry about your husband, has he been on a plane recently?!?
Hopefully it will turn out to be as minor as a bloodclot can be.

Oh no! What's the next step for hubby? When will you find out anything? SO sorry... very scary! :-(

I hate to comment on your pics after hearing about your husband, but friend... these are AMAZING. That little sliver of light hitting his arm (6th from the end)... the last one... oh my, they're all just amazing. Absolutely gorgeous... new favorites from you!!

Karli @ The Bonnie 5 said...

LOL! Just saw Stacey said these were her new faves too! PROMISE I didn't see that before I left my comment. :-) They really are... I'm LOVING low light photography these days!

Tracey said...

Prayers for your husband Naomi! And I love your black and whites!

Amanda Kelley said...

I love these natural light shots and I need to practice some of them that is for sure, I've been saying this for a while... And rather than just saying I should, I should act upon it!

P.S.---I love all of that hair! My son was baldy until he was 2!

Jenn said...

Hugs Naomi. I didn't see this post until just now. I'll add you guys to my prayers.

Those photographs are absolutely gorgeous, so moody and beautiful.

Heidi said...

Praying for you and your family - that is such a scary thing but sounds like it was caught early. Hope you get some answers.

And the black and white photos are amazing!

Marvett Smith said...

He is so sweet! You will be in my prayers. I will be praying for your husband too.

Carla said...

He is just too cute. I am kind of missing those chubby thighs, chubby cheek baby days. Time flies, doesn't it.

Thinking of you and your family. Praying that it's not serious.

Karli @ The Bonnie 5 said...

So this is my 3rd comment on this post apparently - lol! Just stalking back by to figure out how in the HECK you did this. I sooo want to try this with TT. Probably my favorite photos I've seen anywhere in a very long time.

Any new news on hubby? I've been thinking of you guys!! xoxo
