"Hanging" Baby

This is a shot I have been wanting to try for a while. I am telling you, it is a lot of work to be the photographer and the mom at the same time. You should have seen the chaos outside of the frame. The three other kids seem to always demand the most attention when I am taking pictures. :)

These first three shots are all very similar, but the way her arm is is different and I edited each of them slightly different. I would love to hear what you think is the best pose and which editing job you like the most.







A close up:


Slightly different view:

2 weeks old

She has changed so much; 12 days old

BFF

It was fun to take these shots! These girls are best friends which made them really easy subjects!

10 days old

She is changing much too quickly...

She is already 1 week old

Already time is going too quickly. I was going to take pictures every day....
She is such a sweet, good baby. We feel blessed to have her.

Me

I am getting so close....38 weeks. I have had a ton of pressure and pain for several weeks but it doesn't seem to be progressing me towards real labor. I am ready to move on to the next phase of sleepless nights and newborn. At least I know there is a light at the end of the tunnel. :)
