Mama's Photo Shoot (4/3)

Newborns are terrific photographic subjects. They hold pretty still and are game to try any position you put them in. They don't whine and will sit for long periods of time. As long as you don't mind them snoozing a little here and there.

However, 2 year olds do not make great photography assistants. They steal your props, stand in the good light, make a lot of noise, try to get in the picture with the baby, tip the baby basket over and generally make things difficult. Note to self: all serious photo shoots should be done during nap time. Other note: locate good light source during naptime inside the house.

These pictures really need to be color corrected and edited a little. The light was great, but there wasn't enough of it in big enough patches to get the job done. So, I'm disappointed and don't have time to go through each pic and make it perfect. But, I'm posting them anyway because...well maybe sometime I'll have time to come back through and fix them up right. When I'm 100 years old.

A sweet baby in a laundry basket
Snuggled in tight- she isn't going to fit into this basket for much longer!
Still has a little jaundice
A tiny smile - at least she has happy gas.
Patience is wearing thin...
Sweet baby girl
Stretch!
Trying to eat her hands...
Stretch the other side!
Thinking hard...about something.
You think it would hurt to put your finger in your eye
Tiny feet! Her feet are so much smaller than William's ever were. But, she has the loooooonggggest toes ever! They are so beautiful (for the record, all parts of her are beautiful!)
