Baby T | newborn session | roseburg, oregon children's lifestyle photography

welcome to the world, elijah michael.

i found you absolutely captivating.

your temperment is so sweet.

but i'm not surprised.

i loved watching marybeth in her new role
as {beautiful} mama
holding her firstborn.

there's nothing sweeter than baby's breath and that soft newborn gaze.

is there?

although, gramma rubbing marybeth's tootsies was sweet.

and auntie hannah was preparing a feast in the kitchen

while daddy painted the doors to elijah's closet, too,

was all very sweet,

but the baby's breath

and soft skin

and sweet little nursing noises

and the fresh bebe aroma

tops all, in my book.

{i love being a photographer.

but not as much as i love being a mom.

there's no greater joy, marybeth.

relish every moment.}

yay, for Thompsons, party of three!

xoxoxo

this sweet girl had me at hello. about 3 months ago i was with my family at fred meyer and this new mama came strolling by, completely unaware what would unfold when she walked thru the automatic doors near electronics.


i have that baby-itch thing going on lately (and i still HAVE an itty-bitty!) and so my eye catches every infant carrier and every baby bjorn with a baby inside... bright eyed ones tug at my heart strings, but sleeping babes? it's over, i melt. and so then i run to squeeeeeze mine, all four of 'em, so tight, that they struggle to wriggle free like so many earthworms.


ANYWAY. the point. [my new friend] megan had NO IDEA i would stalk her in the lobby of fred meyer and ogle her bright-eyed baby, make all 5 of my family members ogle her bright-eyed baby, including introducing my husband so he could ogle the bright-eyed baby. i told her that i would love to have little Miss Irresistible in front of my camera, just for me, purely for selfish reasons -- cuz, omiheavens! this sweet girl's soft curly black hair and catch-light-full eyes HAD me at hello.

thanks for indulging me, megan & blessing!!!
(by the way... it turns out that megan & blessing are missionaries on maternity leave from YWAM missions -- they met & fell madly in love in AFRICA!!! whoah. their love story is almost right up their with my own [walmart] romance. ALMOST. wink*)
