Newborn Days

We are so in love with this little boy. Every cute noise he makes, facial expression, the way he brings his arms up to his face like an angel to snuggle and smiles in his sleep… makes us melt. We’re exhausted, but are having so much fun finding out all his hilarious little quirks and are so, so thankful for him. We’re soaking up every one of his precious newborn days. We don’t really want to do anything except stare at him! Having him here with us after praying for him for the past 10 months and waiting his arrival is beyond words. We are totally in awe of our Lord for this amazing gift. Thank you so much to everyone who prayed for him throughout my pregnancy and then again during the past week in the NICU. He is a testament to how the Lord answers prayer!
{Thanks to Sayd for sharing where she found this sharky robe… it’s Cam’s favorite to put him in after a sponge bath}

    Incredible. When I eventually have kids, I'm hoping to have my photography skills at your level so that every photo of my babies will be gorgeous– and we won't have to hire a photographer! Looking forward to upcoming posts with the baby.

    Congratulations he is cute as a button. What a blessing. Love that shark robe too. Enjoy the newborn days they go so fast. Aria is 10 months and some days it quite honestly baffles me how big she is and how grown up. Grown up to me anyway =)
