Cole was in the mood for a little showing off (and so was I); hence, the following.
Although we have yet to visit a real photographer, the hospital has a company called Bella Baby that brings in free-lance photographers during your hospital stay. They give a little knock on your door (no advance notice, mind you), bring in a basket and ask if you’d like your baby’s picture taken. I said yes, but was a little embarrassed when she wanted two of the photos to include the mom (everyone knows that makeup and nice hair falls to the wayside postpartum). I went with it, so squint your eyes when it comes to those.
We only got like 11 pics at a rather premium price, but figured it was worth it.
The above pic is obviously my favorite
Jaundice-testing battle wounds
Optical illusion of tiny; remember he was 8lb, 5 oz
In the middle of some deep, cognitive processing
This is the part where you blur your eyes
The end.
We so love him! His biological clockwork is definitely backwards, but we’ll keep him.
Wow! he is such a beautiful baby! And Ash you look amazing as well! I'm so jealous of both of you! :)
ReplyDeleteHe's so sweet. I'm really missing my newborn. K. You look fantastic! I don't know what you're talking about as far as being embarrassed. I'd kill to look as good as you postpartum (or any time, for that matter).
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet angel :) We sure do love him! :) And as aforementioned, you look fabulous! XOXO
ReplyDeleteHe is so cute...and I loved Bella Baby--totally expensive, but how can you not? And look at it his way...he was only a newborn once and it goes by so fast!
ReplyDeleteOh Aish. You know that I love him! And yes, the fact that you don't have to take him to get newborn pictures...priceless. We're on the mend; so we'll be coming to see him soon!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Cole really does make the blanket look fantastic! (But don't look too close!)
What a cutie! love the pics. You look great! for just having a baby and no makeup. Impressive. Love you guys!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! That is one handsome little baby! What a bonus that these were taken at the hospital!
ReplyDeleteI'll take some pictures for you :0)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, he's so cute! Love him.
