“It is not a slight thing when those so fresh from God love us.”
~Charles Dickens
This little pumpkin hat has great meaning to me. When my son Jackson was born, he was very sick and spent awhile in the NICU on a ventilator. It was the most difficult thing in the world to leave our baby at the hospital, but the nurses and volunteers that we encountered there were our lights in the darkness. A group of ladies knit a bunch of these pumpkin hats for all the babies in the NICU. I still remember the day we walked in to go see him and had to have a little laugh to myself. We had walked into a pumpkin patch. The nurses had put the little hats on all the babies for Halloween. It was a wonderful sight. It was a bright spot, it made me feel normal. So, I tucked it away in his baby book and thought to bring it out for this October newborn session. It fit this sweet, sweet little girl so perfectly. It brings back wonderful memories and makes me happy to see this special hat on other babies. 
Don’t you just love how she has found her little thumb already? I loved photographing this little one and it was great to see her mom again–I got to photograph her and her “BUMP” awhile back…oh, and for those of you that were wondering–it’s a girl!!!!
Dad is a huge Boston Redsox fan–her middle name is Fenway, how cool is that?!–so we had to include a sneak peek for him, too. Enjoy your sneak peeks, and I can’t wait to see how much she has grown when I see you for the mini sessions!!
The hot pink bloom is from Dolce Vita Mia, and I loooove it! She does fan-tabulous work, and if you want to see more of her work, head over to her website, where this little cutie pie can be seen!
How sweet that this couple waited to be surprised! Maybe we will do that with our next one! I love these photos Laura! So sweet! =)
Great pics of a precious baby girl1
