Meeting a Baby Planner! Joanne with Bliss Nine…



When I got engaged to be married to my incredible husband I had no idea how much work it would be to plan a wedding.  I remember thinking several times during the planning how if I had the money, I WOULD hire a wedding planner, STAT.  Then, what felt like a short 4 years later, Daniel and I found out we were pregnant.  I still find it hard to describe in words what a miracle having a baby is.  I can honestly say that it wasn’t until I felt that baby growing inside me that I really knew God existed.  I have never doubted it since.  Birth is truly a miracle.  

But let’s be honest, mixed in with the feelings of love and joy are feelings of insecurity and fear.  It is also a time of a LOAD OF HORMONES, aches and pains and tests of patience.  You are overwhelmed with questions, reading material, and opinions from websites and doctors and family and friends.  And let me tell you, nine months to prepare?  Psh!  That nine months FLIES BY!  I remember being  so stressed but too tired to want to do anything.  The first time I walked into Babies R Us, I cried.  Yep, right there in the store.  The tears flowed.  (Phew, never thought I would admit that to the public…but sometimes you have to own your tears)

Ever wonder what life would be like with a “Baby Planner”?  Ever think about how great it would be to have someone do all the baby planning, preparing and research for you? Well girl, take a deep breath, let out all the stress and fears, put your feet back up on the couch.  Let me introduce you to Joanne with Bliss Nine!  (yep a baby planner to your rescue)

When I walked up to Chili’s to meet Joanne the first thing I noticed was her warm smile.  Within minutes we were laughing our way through lunch.  Joanne is incredible.  She is one of those people that you just click with immediately.  She is warm and kind and full of life’s joy.  Her passion and excitement for her business is overflowing.  And I have to say my favorite part about Joanne, she is a laminator.  That’s right.  Those of you out there who are like me can truly appreciate someone who likes to be organized and laminate.  :)

I am so excited and honored to announce that I will be working with Joanne and Bliss Nine as one of her suggested photographers.  Go to her website here  and check out all the services that she offers!  (If you check out her blog page…you can see Sundin Photography featured on it!  Yay!)  AND if you book your Sundin Photography session through Bliss Nine…you can get a 10% discount.  Who doesn’t LOVE getting a discount?

Of course, I will  leave you with a photo.  Family of boots…
