Our little girl is growing so fast...

Hello Everyone,

Rhowan was one month old yesterday and will be five weeks old already on Tuesday. I can't believe where the time goes. I am already not wanting to go back to work. It's so funny how being a mom changes you. You have all these great ideas and ambitions before the baby is here on how you think it will be and how you see things going and then when your little one arrives, that all changes! I know, I know, so many of you are saying, "I told you so..." right now. Well I've always been that girl that has to learn it on her own! :)

Rhowan is getting so big. She is just so aware and alert of things around her. She will follow you with her eyes and wakes up full of smiles. At her 2 am feedings when I'm barely keeping my eyes open, she is all smiles...how can you be upset of losing sleep at a precious face like that?!
She had a photo shoot last Friday with a friend of mine who brought props and all her stuff here to do pictures of Rhowan. Let me just brag for a moment and say we have the cutest little girl around. Oh my goodness, they turned out adorable. My friend took some really great shots, she had amazing ideas of back drops, etc. and photo shopped them all for me to order prints on line. I am so happy with the outcome. I wanted to order prints for all the family as Christmas presents, but I am not sure if I can wait that long to give them out because I am just so in love with them. We are going to do family pictures next weekend, so I am looking forward to that.

We used one of the shots for her announcements, which came in the mail yesterday, once again I know, I am very late on those! I really loved the backdrop we used, a leopard print, well those were the last shots we took after about 2 hours of pictures and a few feedings in between, so needless to say Rhowan was DONE! She was ready for a nap! Well I bribed her with her plug (i.e. pacifier) for a few more smiles. So the picture we have on the announcement her lips are all red and perked out from me grabbing her plug out just in time for the picture. Well...daddy says she looks like a porn star and the family says those pictures are "Whoa, provocative and she won't appreciate them when she is older." :(
Well yes, she is naked, but she is 4 weeks old in the picture, everyone does naked pictures and I never thought anything of it, but how precious my princess looked in them. So that's the picture I chose and now I am second guessing even sending them out! :( I was really bummed to get that reaction and just don't know what I am going to do, after spending so much money on them!
Anyway, all the pictures turned out adorable and I will post some (non provocative) ones later! :)
Until then...toodles.
