Finn's newborn photo shoot

Courtesy of Ilde with Memorysnap.net, we have some very cute photos of Finn and the rest of our family that were taken when Finn was five days old. These are a smattering of my favorites. I really hope to be able to write a real blog post soon, but for now photos will have to suffice. The shoot was absolute chaos - Annie was absolutely beside herself, either goofing off or wailing; I spent five minutes crying outside only 10 minutes before the photographer arrived; and we couldn't do any photos outside, though I can't remember if it was raining or too hot. :) In any event, we have some real keepers here.

I love this one where Toby was trying to get Annie to warm up to the photographer.  If you can open this one a bit bigger, it really shows that special daddy-daughter bond.

Finn had been wailing (along with Annie, and probably me) only a few minutes before the photographer arrived, so I though it was a miracle that she was able to get these sleeping baby shots.  I had no hope of getting these - Ilde is a baby whisperer, for sure.

 I think this one below is my absolute favorite. 

Screaming baby, poking toddler - chaos!

Cheesy smiles from Annie and me, but at least Toby looks super handsome!

Love this one!

And the one that made all the women in the room weepy - Toby is such a sweet daddy.
