Becky has a friend who is an amazing photographer, Susanne, who had done her maternity pictures and newborn pictures with Wyatt (isn't Becky GORGEOUS, and isn't Susanne a genius with a camera?). I was more than thrilled that she captured shots of little Violet when she was only 5 days old:
(Oh, and I was able to post this entry--and do dishes, clean the kitchen, clean our bedroom, and do laundry--because my amazing husband held Violet while she slept so that I could have a little break. He's amazing!!!)
My friend Brittany has embarked on a photography career and offered to take Violet's pictures (we were her first newborn shoot!). I love the family pictures she was able to get of us--our first ever family pictures!!! She posted the shoot on her web site here, and you can see her other work here. Thank you Brittany!
So Megan informed me that I have to post more pictures. So here are a couple more. I don't take a lot of pictures, as most of my waking hours are spent nursing and cleaning. I am obviously NOT a photographer., and all but the first were taken today (the first one was taken Tuesday night).
But I did make that cute baby, so I guess that counts for something.
"We believe that motherhood is the highest form of manifestation of the genius of the creative spirit of nature. Its enemies are those who are blind to the dignity of motherhood and the spiritual potential of her primary purpose. They worship the golden calf of science and so seek a national hero to whom they may ascribe the works of God."
