Maisy Joy is 1 month old!

… well actually she is 2 months next week but these photos were taken at 1 month.

Being a Mom is so much better than I imagined, Maisy is way more fun than I could have dreamed, and I am way more in love than I thought myself capable.  Every time I look at this little girl my heart seems to bubble with joy.  I look at her and see all the goodness there is to be had in life, especially when she smiles her big, goofy grin back up at me.  I’ve been told so many times to enjoy every minute with this little girl because time will fly so I am trying my hardest to do just that!  On of my ways is by taking photos of her like this.  I’m thankful even more now than ever for my passion for photography because this really is the only way I get to freeze my little girl in time.

My intention for this shoot was to also get her outside but that just didn’t happen.  Maybe for her 2 month I can do the outdoorsy things I had hoped to accomplish in the 1 month… we will see.  What I did do though were some basic shots of her because I want to do the same shot every month for a year to better see how she’s growing and changing.  I also did some on the quilt I made her and photographed her adorable little details (eyes, mouth, etc).  I’m also tickled that I got some photos of her with Grammie and even me!

This week Maisy hit 1 month!  So hard to believe!  She’s consumed most of my photographing for the week.  Seems to be my trend lately.  But I also photographed a wedding and saw a really cool looking sun at sunset this week!
