This was a sad day for me. This was the first birth that I missed. AND BY 10 MINUTES!!! I know. Seriously. I had to travel 58 miles to get there and I knew it would be close. It was really hard and made my pretty bummed. I adore this family though. They are so loving and wonderful. Their daughter is something else. Not only is she GORGEOUS, but she has so much spunk. I am sure their new addition will only add to the fun. This mama was one tough cookie and endured days (weeks, maybe?) of prodromal labor. I heard she was quite the trooper.
I was grateful to get a lot of beautiful images in that immediate post partum time.
The whole family...

A beautiful mama gazing at her son...

I am not sure she knew what to think of him!

Nothing is better than a good daddy snuggle...

The new little man...

Mama and both her babies...

Grandma and her babies. She was sooo thrilled to get her hands on that little babe!
