One Month Old (Baby shower and Photography session)



My baby girl is now one month old. I told you all last week that we had a couple of big things this week. One was a baby shower at DCHS (where I teach) and another was Ava's first photography session (with a professional, not just Mom, Bradley, and I messing around!).

The photography session was on Tuesday and I just had a feeling we were in for a bad day. Ava started out fussy but I hoped she would calm down by the time the session started at 2:00. Needless to say, she was very gassy and fussy. But let me tell you, the photographer, Kori Burkhead, was fabulous. She worked so hard with Ava and spent a lot of time, patience, and love on her photos. I was so impressed with her. She spent more than 4 hours with us trying to get some good shots. So last night as I was playing on the internet, I decided to check out Kori's blog to see if she had posted any recent pics (I just love seeing her work because it is awesome!), and I was so surprised to see Ava on her blog. I can't post the pics here due to copyright infringement, but here is the link where you can see 2 photos of Ava. She posted them on Sept. 13th under the title Newborns are such precious gifts! Here is the link: http://www.koriburkhead.com/blog.html and if you have time, she has a link on her blog to her photography studio site and let me tell you, her photographs are works of art!

Anyway you should have seen me last night when I came across these photos. I made Bradley get out of bed to come see them! I was so impressed by just these two and I can't wait to see what all she got that day (she will have an online gallery within the next two weeks of the proofs). I could hardly go to sleep last night because I just kept thinking of how cute they were!

The shower at school went excellent. I was so impressed with the food and decorations. I want to thank my Zone for the awesome shower they threw and the faculty and staff for all the great gifts they gave to Ava. It was just fabulous! The decorations were pink and brown which was really cool and different. We had a chocolate fountain, a cute cake made on cupcakes, sausage balls, chess squares, cocktail weenies, and various other finger foods. It was just fantastic! Thanks so much guys! ( I will try to post more pics later, but the site is acting up!)

So, check out Kori's site and tell me what you think!
