Newborn pics

Thanks for all the positive feedback! It actually made me feel much better to hear others had forgotten their wallet as well and went through similar embarassing moments too. I must admit it did make me feel like I was losing my mind (I thought you were supposed to lose brain cells during pregnancy, not after your baby was born).

When Baby Elliott was 8 days old, we had some newborn pics taken and I thought I would share a couple of the samples we have gotten so far (we haven't gotten them all back yet). I thought they turned out really well and she was such a champ during the session. She slept for about the first hour then gave us some open eye shots. After an hour and a half though, she was done. Funny moment during the shoot...we wanted to take some naked pictures and one of the pictures we had was Kev holding her on his arm. Of course she chose this moment to poop all over him and his favorite shirt. It was pretty humerous...maybe not quite as funny for him. :) It's amazing to see how much she has grown since we had these pictures taken. I feel like daily I marvel at how big she is getting. She is getting small rolls and a double chin. Breast milk does a body good.


One of the last pictures that was able to be taken. She started sucking on her hands to console herself.
