Lucas is almost three weeks old, but he’s still smaller than Noah was at birth. We just love our teeny little guy. Here are some of my first photos of little Lucas, once we got all settled in at home…

Little Lucas
July 15, 2010The Birth of Lucas
July 14, 2010This is what I’ve been working on for the last nine months. Building another baby boy. He was rolling and kicking and growing, snuggled up under my heart. Finally, on June 26th, in a rush of blood and tears, he was born. He weighed 7 pounds even, and he had a little round head full of dark brown hair.
Here are some of his first photos, taken by daddy in the hospital…
Noah’s first look at his new baby brother…
We love you, little Lucas!
The Last Days
June 24, 2010These are the last days of Noah being an only child. The time right before our second baby is born. I’ve heard it referred to as a love affair like no other. Everything is in slow-motion. I can’t wait to meet our newborn, and I know he will teach us and give us so much. But I can’t help feeling like we are losing just a little bit, too. We’re losing our little three-person family. We’re going to be four now. Noah is going to be a big brother.
These last days are for laughter, life and love. For Noah…
A Pocketful of Sunshine
May 26, 2010I can’t believe how full my life is. Full of love and light and laughter. We are so incredibly blessed. I am grateful for every ray of sunshine, every giggle, every tickle and hug, every moment with my boys. I can’t wait for Noah’s little brother to join us out here in the light!
I love this clover field we found a couple days ago. It is so beautiful back there.
Love Your Face | Southwest Ohio Child Photographer
May 13, 2010I love how expressive you are. I love watching you raise your eyebrows and curl up your lip. I love your chubby cheeks and your dark, curved eyelashes. I love your button nose and your cute pokey ears. I love your little teeth and your big bright eyes.
In short, I love your face.
My Little Explorer | Southwest Ohio Child Photographer
April 16, 2010Noah is 100% boy! Last summer he ran headlong into the lake without a second thought, then plopped himself down chest deep in the water and picked up handfuls of wet sand. He is always finding sticks and using them to chop at the grass or dig in the dirt. We have to be quick to distract him from mud puddles. While I was taking these photos, he wanted to walk off into the trees all by himself. He loves being outside and discovering new things.

Ginger
March 17, 2010She was my 28th birthday present. Her name is Ginger, and I love her!!
She holds all my camera equipment, and has plenty of room for more (maybe my 29th birthday presents).
She has a pretty blue interior.
She looks nice with my cute brown flats (please ignore my pasty alien feet).
I know you want one! You can get your own at http://www.epiphaniebags.com/
Springish
March 11, 2010It has been a lot warmer this week, so we’ve been going outside as much as possible. Noah loves to find sticks and dig in the dirt in the backyard. I love sitting in the rocking chair on our front porch and soaking up the sun. Earlier in the week, we took a walk a few blocks to the library and checked out a handful of books. We are all enjoying the fresh air and sunshine. I am so thankful for warm and sunny days!
In case you are wondering, Noah does pretty much wear this sweater every time we go out. He has outgrown his jacket!
Always with the moody faces…
Haha, the wind gave him crazy hair! I love it.
Outside
March 6, 2010Yesterday was such a gorgeous, sunny day that I thought it would be a good idea to go outside and get some fresh air. Little did I know that it was only 40 degrees, and that is COLD! We only stayed outside for 8 minutes or so before we came back into the house with red runny noses. Noah loves going outside, so I can’t wait for it to warm up so we can spend some time out there. I want to go to the park and have a picnic lunch!
Hello, dead tomato plants. How I miss your sweet little cherry tomatoes…
Looking Back
March 2, 2010I found some old photos on my hard drive today and decided to play. Here are a couple of Noah when he was six months old. It’s hard to believe that this was over a YEAR ago! They grow up so fast! In just a few short months, he will be a big brother.
I miss this little guy…
