my tiny love

so they say (not exactly sure who "they" is) a photographer never gets as many pictures of his/her own kids as they do of others kids.

huh. i believe them.

when i was large with child, i had visions of the hundreds of newborn pictures i would take floating through my head. but, alas, twelve days after having my baby, i am horrified to admit that i have only had time to take a few pictures of my beautiful little boy. i guess i forgot how crazy life is for the first little while with a newborn (not to mention with three other kids)!

soooooooo, with nothing else to say (except that i WILL pick up my camera before he grows right into a teenager), here is my beckham at four days old...

oh, and admit it...those cheeks are the BEST. i certainly can't get enough...

HE is SOOOO adorable. I love the pictures you took of him. He does have the cutest squishiest cheeks. I want to SQUEEZE them!

Oh my gosh - he is so dang cute! I can't believe his sweet, chubby face. I thought he looked like Kaleb from his newborn pictures, but I don't think these ones do as much. I hope you're feeling good!

Bonnie said...

Mommy Rachelle said...

beautiful pictures... I think the professional photogs are the ones who never get their kids. Wanna-be's like me only have our kids to torture (smile). Here's hoping the chaos and excitement subsides for you so you can get more shots like these.
