One week old.

So, before I start posting any pics - let's recall what I was doing one year ago today(minus a day). I was celebrating my 8th wedding anniversary only days before my baby was to be born. And a year before that I was recuperating from losing a pregnancy. My how much has happened in the last 24 months! But this time around I am celebrating the one week birthday of my newest son Asher Edward Knorpp. Here are some images:

First off, I am not really experienced at taking those days old portraits and it shows - Asher was getting pretty bugged with me. Better get used to it kid - you got a photographer for a mom!

I did get a couple shots but I have a new found respect for Anne Geddes - these are hard!

Here's one of this boys huge feet. I don't know if it comes through in this image but at the hospital the nurses said he looked like a puppy with really huge paws - looks like he's gonna be tall. OR he's just gonna be a big handed, big footed weirdy.

And finally I gave up because he was getting so bugged and wrapped him up. He's so little and sweet. I still don't know what he looks like but it's starting to come out. By month three I think you can finally see what they look like. And as you know, I'm gonna be taking photos all along the way. Especially since he is my last! Now that is a whole other post that I'll get to...

Here are some outtakes:

p.s. Here is the link to pics of Peter at one week old to compare. Peter was soo much chubbier - Asher is long and lean. And they look a lot different.

totally agree with taking pictures of babies.... it is a pain sometimes really frustrating.
All your babies are so handsome. I just want to squeeze him. Congrats on your new baby
