A few of Luke on location…
In my favorite chair:

With his blankie:

An adorable yawn:

An finally (best for last) an adorable smile:

That’s the end of the Luke newborn posts…for now

When all the trees and flowers started blooming early this year, I had dreams of taking these shots. What a wonderful way to celebrate my spring baby I just had to wait until it warmed up. We brought him home just as the cold snap hit.

One of my hesitations about choosing the name Lucas was that it wasn’t easy to have a nickname by adding an “e” sound. We called our older boys Benny and Sammy, at least when they were young. Since Luke has arrived, I have learned that I can and do call him Lukie (especially Lukie Pookie). Of course, I should have worried, as our kids always end up with tons of nicknames. Ben and Sam primarily call him “Baby,” while Jason and I call him…Squishy Face.

A few more of Luke’s newborn photos…and there are more coming! I have Mommy goggles firmly in place, so I may over-share. I can’t help it; he’s so cute and squishy!

Luke’s bright eyes, so wonderful to see during the day, and tons of baby chub:

His long fingers…

And his perfect toes (have I mentioned that I am a sucker for baby feet?)

Baby boy Eagle was born Monday, May 3 weighing 9lbs 2oz and 20 inches long.

This little cutie is Lucas Rider:

Big brother Sammy was instantly interested, while Ben was a little shy.

He warmed up when I showed him Luke’s tiny feet.

And just look at these perfect feet!

Lots of napping going on:

I’ve got tons more pictures, including those from Luke’s official newborn session. I’m editing like crazy, and will be posting more this week. Stay tuned!

Once again, I had the hardest time limiting my sneak peeks. I know I have mentioned that I love shooting newborns. It isn’t just because they are warm little bundles of cute (though they are!)

I love the dynamic that a newborn brings to a family. It is a time of exhaustion and excitement and wonder. I was amazed by how comfortable and relaxed Max’s parents are. When I had my first, I was a nervous wreck!

I seem to have a knack for keeping newborns awake, but Max did give me a few sleepy shots. I hope he slept all night after his exciting day!

I think the only thing that I like better than shooting seniors is shooting newborns! You just can’t get any sweeter than this little guy. He made me really want a baby; luckily, I have one on the way

I love the timeless look of newborns in black and white. Catching a tiny smile? Priceless!

Getting great wide eyes from a newbie? Pretty wonderful…

But I am TRULY a sucker for baby toes!

I was so happy to meet Miss Makenzie, not only because she is such a beautiful little girl or because I am a wee bit baby crazy, but also because she shares a birthday with my newest niece. I enjoyed snuggling this little sweetie and imagining how my niece in Texas is growing.
