Baby Shaila

Did a photoshoot yesterday of 1 week old Baby Shaila.  Beautiful baby!  This little one did not want to sleep for us though.  She was awake the whole time and therefore wasn't always too happy with us trying to get her to "model" .  Dad was great helping out with the pacifier.  He would give her the pacifier, let her soothe herself, and then pop it out right quick so I could try and get a good shot.  Thanks Dad!  She did an awesome job and she had plenty of relaxed moments too.

Dad to the rescue!

During the session, mom went to go grab something while we were taking a break and I was holding Shaila to try and soothe her a little bit.  Ahhh!  The sights, sounds, and smells of a new baby.  So sweet, so innocent, and completely vulnerable.  I feel truly blessed and honored that God has given us the two that we have.  These days, nothings better than my 2 yr old coming up to me and saying, "love you sooo much!", or my 7 yr old making crafts that always say, "I love you Mommy and Daddy!".   They grow so fast folks!  If you have little ones, soak em' up as much as you can.  As a matter of fact, go give em' a big hug right now!  or...when they get home from school.  I know I am!
Great shoot and I can't wait to see Ms.Shaila in 6 months for the next session and see how much she's grown.
