As I sit writing this story five months after the fact, it’s honestly hard for me to remember how the Jeffrey family was before baby Juniper came earthside.  I met Greg and Brooke in early 2012 when they were just newlyweds; my husband and I were engaged and looking for friends we could relate to and Greg and Brooke were a quick answer to prayer.  6 years and [their] 2 kids later, I’m happy to report they are still some of our favorite people to spend time with, and shining examples of the parents we’d like to be, should we decide to have children in the future.

Ok, well enough of the sappy stuff, I’ll get right to the photos.  In late February James and I made the short trek up to San Luis Obispo to visit and we snagged some family maternity photos nearby at Montaña de Oro State Beach.  We were running a bit behind schedule but it worked in our favor and we caught the softest and most beautiful golden light I’d had in months.  The beach was rocky and the water was cold, but the smiles were real and the happiness was palpable. 🙂 Here are a few of my favorites, documenting G + B’s mounting excitement, and Kaenon’s last few weeks as the only child.

  
(Oh, this photo just kills me!  I love these goofballs.)
