I had to share a few of these!!!



In August I won the grand prize at the local baby expo and as part of that gift, received free newborn pics from a photographer (a different one from the horrible maternity photo debacle!). She did the pics this week, almost totally free. Okay, they would have been free but when we got to the photographers house/studio, the photographer was so edgy and cranky and almost mean that Teagan was miserable and did not cooperate at all...pooping in dad's hand, then pooping while trying to do another naked pic and hitting the photographer's floor (LMAO), then getting chilly and upset. It was awful. So, we rescheduled and I offered to pay her (even though she was incredibly bitchy) since it was really two sessions that we were doing, she agreed to a greatly reduced rate. Luckily, when she came to our house, everything got better. It appears that what happened is that the photographer rubbed me so the wrong way that I was pissy and that translated to Teagan so after an hour of fussiness, Brett told me to get over my dislike of the woman and go in the other room to meditate for a minute....I did (bringing Teagan to nurse) and when I came back calm, she was great. It turns out that the photographer was pissy b/c she is in her first trimester and sick and hormones are raging...but still...ugh, not a happy personality for me at the time. Poor Teagan was just reacting to my stress! Anyway, here are a few of the pics. I can't get over them!!!! She was about 9 days old when these were taken.

Oh, they are just so beautiful...looks like a little model. You'll have to let me know ideas for poses because my father-in-law got us a newborn photo package and I want to go into the shoot prepared.

Wow, those are just amazing. I'm so glad you were able to get those shots - they are never that little again! I regret not taking more pics when my boy was little, I guess I should at least get with it now!

So glad your little one is finally here.

My very favorite is the last one - she looks like the cutest, chunky little pink wrinkly human. OMG! So effen precious - I can't staaaaand it!

Maybe this is why I can't be a mom. I would NEVER let that baby sleep. I would be squeezing and smooching and loving her up all the time and I just couldn't put her down. Now...when they're between 8-14 and obnoxious and sour, I wouldn't want to touch them with a ten foot pole. ;)

SO CUTE!!!! Newborn pics are harder to get done than you think because when you see them, they're all sweet and sleeping but in reality, there;s a lot of poping and fussing going on in the background. Totally worth it though and Teagan looks gorgeous!!
