Meet Ella Grace - just 9 days old!

I love newborns, absolutely love newborns! I never know quite what to expect: awake, sleeping, crying, eating, fussing, refusing to be put down, etc. This time I was pleasantly surprised. Ali's beautiful baby girl was just perfection!!! She is beyond beautiful and so mellow. She really didn't seem to mind being adjusted and re-adjusted over and over again - and really did sleep just about the whole time. This never happens for me. This session I got so many keepers it was hard for me to narrow down what to put on the blog!

I got sleeping picturesAnd curled up picturesAnd sleepy sweet smile pictures with mom



Some playful pictures with Grandma (Ali's mom) while she was here helping out
And I was even able to get some pictures of big brother Nathan! So sweet!!!!


If you're stopping by - make sure to leave a comment - I love to read them and Mom's do, too!

Oh Dana! I am speechless, other than crying when I saw my two babies looking like angels. You have done a beautiful job and I am so happy, grateful and excited.

Thanks! Ali/"Ella's Mom"

Well of course the pictures were great. Look at the Subject Matter! (That was a biased comment by Great-Aunt Penny) Actually,the proof of the professionalism is in the pictures. You did such a wonderful job, and so pleased to get to enjoy pics of the family.
