More Baby For You!

Not sure why, but I just LOVE this one.  It’s so rustic and Texas-y.

When I went to take pictures of this little guy’s feet, this is what he did.  Wow, thanks little man!  😉  This was shortly after I said, “Can you give me a smile,” while he was sleeping and he did!  He’s a genius!

Look Out Bill Gates!

Today I had the longest newborn session I’ve ever had, about 4 hours, because I met the little guy that is going to do great things in this world.  He seriously is ready to take on the world.  I have never seen a newborn who is so alert and so strong!  This baby is one week old and was already holding his upper body and head up with his arms and was looking around!  For a long time!  I mean, I’ve seen some strong babies, but woah!!!  Thank you guys for being patient with me.  I know you’re exhausted right now and I appreciate you letting me take the time to get some good shots for you.  I’m so excited for you and it brings back so many memories of when Mya was born.  What a beautiful life you have in front of you!

My favorite shot of the day!  What is a family?  It’s this right here!  So much love and so many new adventures yet to unfold.

Check out those lips and that red hair!  Soo precious.

Happy early Easter!

More of that Sweet Baby!

I’m loving working on these pictures.  When I did this session the mom asked me what kind of sessions I like best.  Newborn ones are, without a doubt, my favorites!  The babies are so precious and I love the way they are just so sleepy!  Makes my heart grow a little bigger every time!  I think I might need to drive over to this little one’s house so I can hold him just for a minute or two!

I love this one!  Look at that double chin and that round belly.  Oh my goodness, so sweet!

Beautiful Family

A great friend of mine just had this sweet little baby boy.  She asked me a long time ago if I would do newborn pictures for her.  I still can’t believe that he’s really here!  She went into labor a couple of weeks early which worried me because I knew we would be out of town during the time that would have been ideal for his pictures.  But today we did his pictures and he gave us a run for our money.  He did NOT want to sleep!  LOL  We tried forever to get him to sleep and finally, mission accomplished and then he was easy!  I got some adorable pictures of his big sister too.  You will see more of her after next weekend.  She’s turning 2 and I am the lucky girl that gets to do her birthday pictures.  I loved being with this family today.  The dad is so calm and relaxed, an awesome dad to both of his beautiful children.  I don’t get to see him interact with their daughter very much because usually it’s just us moms.  It was cool to see!  And the mom, she’s just so easy going and funny!  I love her!  Thank you guys for letting me spend so much time at your house today!  I hope you love your pictures.  🙂

This one makes me almost cry:

Oh My Goodness

This little sweet thang is just too cute for words.  Look at those lips.  She got them from her momma!  🙂  I will be adding some more of her as I work on them.  Here is one just to brighten your day a little!

It took a lot of bribing to get big brother to do this, but I know that one day he is going to think the world of his little sister.  Look out boys, you are gonna have to get past him if you want to meet her later on down the road.  😉
