Juliet's 3 months photo session

I've been meaning to post Juliet's 3 month photos for a while now, they were taken over two months ago! I couldn't love these photos more, taken by Wing Ta of Canary Grey Photography (she also took my maternity and nursery photos).

I originally planned on only having Juliet's newborn, 6 month and 1 year photos taken, but when she approached 3 months I marveled at how different she looked than even just a few months earlier (check out her newborn photos here). 

I don't spend a lot of money on clothes, toys or baby gear. We were fortunate enough to receive so many gifts when Juliet arrived and from our baby shower. But I do spend money on professional photos.  They are important to me and always will be.  I will never regret spending money on these photos. 

Erik could only be home during the photos for about 20 minutes, and then he had to go back to work.  So the majority of photos were taken of just Juliet and Juliet and I.  I really wanted some sweet mommy/baby photos and I sort of used my maternity leave as inspiration for the shoot.  Just my sweet baby girl and me, in a perma-snuggle for 3 months straight.  I wanted that captured in photos and I think Wing was able to do just that. 

These photos show Juliet's silly facial expressions, her funny thin hair that stood straight up those first few months, how she doesn't like to smile for the camera and my enormous love for her.  She was also super sleepy during the session and fell asleep in the middle of it!  

I cherish these photos with all my heart.

  10. Adorable! I've been reading your blog for a little over a year now and I did not realize that we became new moms on the same day. I guess I've been busy with my little girl too! They're such a joy! I'm amazed at how you're able to juggle being a new mom and a blogger--you go girl!! I'm inspired!!!
