Photoshoot

Throughout my pregnancy, I begged Joel for a newborn session for our little one.  Joel, always the practical one in the relationship, balked at the idea but surprised me with one for Mother's Day.  What a wonderful gift!  So, when Ada was two weeks old, we had the lovely Sarah Danaher of Ampersand Photography come take newborn photos.  Sarah is a fellow member of our church family and a fantastic photographer!  I wanted natural pictures that really showed Ada's newborn-ness, and Sarah did a wonderful job.  It's so hard to believe how much she has changed in just a few weeks!  At this point she was just shy of 8 lbs and 20 inches long (yeah, she shrunk because her cone head rounded out  quite a bit after birth:))  At her last doctor's appointment (2 weeks ago) she weighed a whopping 9 lbs 4 oz and was 21.5 inches long.  Since then Ada has been through her 6 week growth spurt and I'm sure tops 10 lbs by now.

These are just a few of our favorites, but you can see more here if you would like!
