baby loves

Wednesday I went to the hospital to take pictures of a pregnant momma. She is stuck in the hospital until the baby is born, which could be up to 6 more weeks. She is so bored there, so we were able to get her out of the hospital and go to a nearby garden to get some pictures of her belly. Even her husband took the day off to come take pictures. I went back to visit yesterday.
She found out at 20 weeks that there were problems with the baby. Her baby is breech also, but she has to have a C-section. She is handling it very well and has been happy to have people visit (the closest family is 2 hours away). After her ultrasound yesterday, found that things are looking better. Her baby has a large growth that, luckily, hasn't grown in the past week. We will probably take more pictures after the baby is born and although the outcome looks really good, their baby will have to spend quite a bit of time in the NICU.

Arah, I seriously wish you lived close to me so that you could be my photographer. I would pay you to take family portraits; you are AMAZING!

Why aren't you pursuing photography professionally. You are truly a TALENT.

I'm so jealous of all the people who are lucky enough to have you their capturing their most precious moments!

(By the way, I LOVE Gracie girl. It has reminded me of Ivy since I first heard it, and now I sing along to it and say "Ivy" instead of Gracie)!
