Two Babies, Two Moms

Children reinvent your world for you.

~ author unknown

I couldn’t think of a better way to spend a warm, sunny afternoon in November than with two young mothers and their babies.  For Derilyn, this is child number three.  Her beautiful son, Madox, is four months old.  For Lea, this is child number one and sweet little Tabitha is two months old.  It was fun listening to the conversations.  It made me realize that all mothers have a universal language, mulling over topics like sleep, or lack of sleep.  Feeding habits.  Diaper changes.  Bathing.  How to reintegrate back into the world with a baby glued to the hip.

Two months hardly seems like any time at all, but there was such a noticeable difference between these two little cherubs.  Tabitha is just waking up to the world around her, while Madox seems to have been around the block a few times already.

I hope you enjoy this little journey of candid moments!

It’s a Boy!

There is nothing more precious than new life.  It is miraculous that something as tiny as two cells can eventually become a beautiful, vibrant living being.  I am sure the siblings of this precious baby are simply in awe.  They watched their mother transform over the months, watched her belly move in a way they have never seen before, and then suddenly, one day emerges this child – their little brother.  Their eyes were glued to him, especially “big sister!”

Thank you for inviting me to capture these first sacred moments of the life of your son.  What a treasure of memories!!  Enjoy your preview!!

Love the flurry of activity here among the ever content baby.  I’m telling you, he is very happy!

. . . and then there were five.

Oh my goodness, the love here is so sweet!

This is why I love my job . . .

No words here between these three, just a lot of “awe”

We did manage to pull big brother away from the computer long enough for a quick photo!

And here is grandma.  Now I see where the beauty is coming from!

Some daddy love ~

I adore this picture!

And to end, we must all appreciate these sweet, kissable cheeks!  A well fed baba!
