It’s baby season

A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of witnessing this little guy’s entrance into the world. Dad was in the middle of an untimely deployment and Mom had heard about my penchant for birth so she actually called to ask me about both getting pictures done and some help in achieving the natural birth she wanted. I agreed to come to her birth in a dual role as both a doula and photographer. As the date approached, I waited for her call, but she assured me she would go late. Well surprise! One evening, a few days BEFORE her due date she called me and said it just might be that night. When she called back a couple hours later, she was certain she was in labor, and when I arrived an hour after that, there was no questioning that we’d get to meet baby soon! The rest of the story isn’t mine to tell. But, I will share with you some of Baby J’s first moments. Next up… another birth!

So Baby K had the audacity to be born as I was packing my suitcases on the way out of town. The nerve of her! Of course I’m kidding, but I did tell her that she’d have to wait until I got back for the editing. It’ll be a nice surprise to see how much she’s changed in three weeks.

So, meet K, in her first few hours and as her big brothers welcome her to the family. I love that Q ran right up to her and showered her with kisses while J hung back and admired from afar. So typical and perfect! My apologies for making you wait so long– I know you can’t wait to see the rest!

Another birth photography session. Well, almost. This little girl came so quickly mom didn’t have a chance to call me. She barely had time to call the midwives. They arrived at her house about 15 minutes before the baby did!

I went over the next morning and we improvised. Here’s big brother meeting little sister:
