Say hello to River

img_7914_websize

I was so very glad to finally make the acquaintance of my new friend River this weekend. I say finally, because the young chap decided to go ten days past his due date, after we were all convinced that this child of preemies would come early himself.

And then it was two WHOLE weeks before I could go visit, so believe me when I tell you it was long awaited.

But so worth the wait.

    Hello River! You are a gorgeous boy for sure!

    Hi Anna! You captured this sweet boy so sweetly! You even got newborn smiles. I love the hands shot, and the last one with his flaky baby skin. Can’t wait to hear how all your STUFF is going!
