it's 6am.

turned over to fall back asleep and i hear that "ping" that without fail makes you (or maybe just me) curious enough to turn back over and check your phone.

new email: [R's] photos. (BINGO.)

well that got me out of bed real fast! i've been excited all week to see these photos and i am so thrilled i just had to blog about it! (but after this, i really am going back to bed... only an hour until this peach wakey-wakes) (spoke too soon! i hear her little grunts...) (shhhh, sweet thing, you're still tired...)

(change of scenery and outfits, because that's only necessary when you're having a photo shoot!)

(and although [R's] first emotion is happiness, she does have some others that are worth documenting..)

"you wanna smolder!?? oh, i'll give you a smolder..."

"not the bucket!!!!"

"oh, that's not so bad..."

"but not the crown!! not the itchy crown!!"

S/O: thanks to ma mère (pictured earlier), for making [R] smile and for entertaining another little one at the same time. 

thanks to ma sœur for being my extra set of arms and for holding the reflecty photographer thingy. 

and thanks to kathryn for doing these beautiful pictures! newborn pictures are not easy and she was very patient with us. she did a great job helping us "simba style" show off our little one;)
