Gideon Lager

Meet Gideon , he was born on February 17, 2010.  He is a little peanut!  Some friends say little Gideon looks like Crush, the turtle off of "Finding Nemo." And I have to say I agree!  Their friends bought him a stuffed sea turtle for a gift and his mom, Gena, asked if we could use it in his pictures.  It is my favorite one!  Good idea mom.  Thanks Gena for letting me spend a day with sweet, little Gideon.  What a beautiful gift from God!  Enjoy!

Ava Catherine Bybee

This is my newest niece Ava Catherine Bybee.  Isn't she adorable?  My sister and brother graciously let me come over and try my hand at babies.  It was challenging and long yet, a lot of fun!  I got to play with a baby all day!  While I was shooting I would just stop and stare at her, I couldn't get past the amazement of how precious and beautiful she is!  And she is the bottom of  7 kids in their family so you would think that I am used to it by now.  Especially since I have 4 of my own!  You never get past the amazement and awe of new born babies!!  
I still remember my kids as newborns like it was yesterday!  I always hated it when my parents would say that to me, and look, I am saying it now!  What wonderful gifts they are!  How fast they grow up on you.  We are delighted to have you with us little Ava Catherine!

 
 
 Ok, so I can't take credit for this really super cute picture of Ava in the teddy bear hat because I learned this one from my friend and fellow photographer Tracy Thompson.  Go check out her wonderful work at www.tracymoorephotography.com  She specializes in babies and newborns.
