More of Maysie...

The best pictures yet of our sweet little muffin. She is such a perfect little thing, and slept so well for her pictures. At two weeks old now, she is loving her milk, and it's showing - she's put on a whole pound and only just fits on my bean bag for pictures.

This is the first time I've used this hat - it was made to be worn by Maysie.

When she's asleep, she is completely out!

Smuchy, cutesy, lovely babyness!

Just adorable.

What a doll! She was completely content to have her picture taken.

My plan for next week is black and white! Watch this space!

The sweetest girly...

Her first official photo shoot was of course in the hospital, but I'll be following up with weekly progress shoots. This is my little niece. And it has been a privilege to welcome her into our family. She really is a wonderful baby and perfectly content after a feed and a little cuddle. I am looking forward to the coming weeks and months to get to know her better and of course to take beautiful pictures.

As a mother, I find it's the little details I want to remember - the twist of a hair, the shape on an ear, a tiniest little eyelash.

This girly has the sweetest little nose and lips - just perfection!

She loves her comforts, and likes to be swaddled tight!

She truly is a little munchkin.

Easter 2011

Easter Friday found us in the park for a mini egg hunt, and a photo shoot. The weather was beautiful, like it's been all spring, so we found shade under the trees. It was so much fun filling little plastic eggs with chocolate buttons and then hiding them, and picking buttercups in the small wild flower meadow. Sounds idyllic, and it was. Looks as though we could have had the whole park to ourselves? You'd never have guessed that big brothers and boys played a noisy and fast paced game of football just a few feet away!

A huge thank you to two of the prettiest girls, and whilst Mummy said you'd never really had your pictures taken before, I think you could be pro's, you were so wonderful! (It's amazing the power chocolate has - hehe!)
