Wittle tiny man from Friday. He is an early bird as he wasn’t due to hatch for 4 more weeks!

I am bone tired from a weekend of trying to heal our wounded doggie. She had surgery two weeks ago, developed a very bad complication, was on the verge of us having to put her down on Friday evening :( , but now seems to be a bit on the mend. Fingers crossed!!! I will try to post photos of her and the kids very soon. First the cute baby….I get to spend tomorrow with another wittle early bird too…YAY!

A few more of baby ella and her awesome family. I have been dying to do an image of a daddy with a tattoo and his baby. This daddy has a rockin’ tattoo and loves his little baby girl to pieces :) I have to give a HUGE shout out to my AWESOME dad’s who have bravely bared their chests for me to photograph them with their wee loves. There is honestly nothing that melts any mama’s heart more than seeing her man loving their baby. :)

And just for fun, I will let everyone in on my super top secret photo editing music collection…..

Today’s (LOUD) selections were:

Girlfriend in a Coma — Smiths

Tupelo Honey — Van Morrison
Talkin’ about a Revolution — Tracy Chapman
Shimmer — Fuel
Strangelove — Depeche Mode
Shake the Disease — Depeche Mode (saw them live at the Forum in LA circa 1985 or ‘86, I can’t remember!)
Where the Streets Have no Name — U2
Bad — U2 (Saw live in 1988….my bff Heather and I got Bono butt view….don’t know why they played in the round)
Gin and Juice — Snoop Dog (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Don’t tell anyone…..it’s a mood piece……lol!)
Love My Way — Psychadelic Furs
Solsbury Hill — Peter Gabriel
You Should be Dancing — Bee Gee’s

Glycerine — Bush (Who I actually got to see live at Woodstock ‘99)
Superman — REM
Living for the City — Stevie Wonder
Mountains O’ Things — Tracy Chapman

And her awesome daddy! Who allowed me to post this ;) Soooo excited about that because there is so much I just LOVE about this image. Kate and her family travelled all the way from Rockford, Illinois to spend the morning with me.



Kate and Daddy




She loved having her arms like this. Just chillin’ :) (does saying that make me sound like I graduated in 1990?)

He is such a chub a bub that he even has his own nose brow!!!! Yum-o! My second 9 lb’er this week :)

The funny thing was that he was IN LOVE with this position. He was awake until I put him like this…..then he rapidly drifted off to sleep!

At first he was not very interested in having his clothes removed for nakey baby pictures. In fact, I was actually afraid to remove his clothes starting off. For fear that our sleep time would be over…. ;) Fortunately he got all nice and cozy and warm. And let me have my way! For some reason the babies this week have not wanted any tummy poses. Usually I will have one or two who just say NO to tummy poses. But all of them? I think it was a bit of a baby conspiracy. :)



I just love the look of this shot….the mix between his sweet little baby clothes and his adorable little newborn face.

I will have to admit that I was quite enthralled with his delicate baby features.

Isn’t she adorable? All 9 plus pounds of her! What a beautiful healthy little baby girl!!! By the time the weekend is through I will have added 3 more gorgeous babes to this blog… There must have been something in the water at the end of March.

It is going to be one crazy newborn fiesta this week as I have 3 (yes, 3!) more newbies to photograph this week and one that I think is still in mama’s belly waiting to arrive ;)

This big sister could not WAIT to be photographed with her little baby sister. To top it off, she showed me some acrobatics on my beanbag that I am hoping (cross my fingers) my Annika and Rowan never figure out. Otherwise we will probably spend a lot more time than we already do at the “Doctor Store”….as Annika refers to the Emergency Room. LOL!

I am having a ton of maternity sessions these days after my newborn pallooza. Which means guess what??? Another newborn pallooza come February. I can’t wait! Although I have to wait a little longer for this little man. He isn’t due until March :)

Has anyone noticed that I have not been as verbose of late? I think it is because it has been so cold outside that I literally can’t think straight. Or it freezes my verbal creativity. Blah. The only fun stories I can come up with lately would be things that would poke fun at my hubby. And I don’t think he would quite appreciate that as much as everyone else would. So I will spare him for now…. :)
