Post 4 - Newborn

Sorry for not being able to post over the weekend. I was visiting my brand new nephew - he is SUCH a sweetheart!


Newborns are mesmerizing - everything they do feels like a miracle. And their smell - oh so heavenly!

But, they are a ton of work. I had forgotten how tough it is, especially during those first few weeks. They sleep a lot, but they also eat, burp, poop and pee a lot. And its exhausting. And right around 3am when you are in deep sleep, they wake up and want to play. 2-5am is the toughest time of the night to stay awake, and it is only during this time that newborns are at their playful best.

I am glad I was able to visit and help my family.....my nephew got along brilliantly with me, so I could feed him, change him, burp him and rock him to sleep. I even got to chat and hear his cooing, which is rare coz he is mostly sleeping all day.


Isn't he a darling :)?

Nice mood captures around sunset ... & you
are looking after your needs as well as
your family's :)). Even I relaxed, from this distance, reading your recollections and viewing the moments you chose to shoot.
