Family 365s and More

Its been crazy around here for the past couple of weeks. Lots of photo shoots, weddings, and editing. Nonetheless, 365s must go on!!

Ethan is getting bigger everyday and loves to move and bounce when he is awake. We can already see the trouble that lies ahead when he learns to walk. He fights going to sleep but we’re enjoying the time we have when he sleeps. When he wakes up, he puckers his little lips, raises is eyebrows, stretches, and makes noises that are indescribably cute.

Oh and lets not forget his hair! It will be interesting to see how this plays out as he grows. It grows into a natural mohawk with all of the hair on the top of his head growing towards the middle due to the dual cowlicks on the back of his head.

Family 365 – The Beginning

We’ve discovered that a 365 with a newborn isn’t as easy as it might have seemed. We have to utilize the strengths of what he can do, which isn’t much more than just laying around. It definitely makes you think a bit differently. Not being able to hold the camera and make sure things are composed and focused is surely the hardest part of it all, especially with a wiggling newborn. Most of our first shots are done pretty quickly with little energy. Its been pretty busy around the Lawrence household over the past 2 weeks.

We still can’t get over how amazing it is to be parents. Is there anything better than having an unlimited supply of cuteness everyday of your life? It makes everything better!

Every moment isn’t peaceful cuteness. If you can’t fight it, you might as well join it!

We got into the Birthday Cake!!!!! Thanks for the cake Grandma!

And here are a few random shots from his first week and a half with us! Nap time is definitely as sweet as it looks.

We are constantly looking for new ideas for our 365s. If you guys have ideas you think would make for a great picture, let us know! We might actually do it and give you credit!

The First 24

Ethan Thaddeus Lawrence is one stubborn little fella. He finally decided to make his grand appearance on August 23rd 2010 at 6:27 pm. 8 Days past his due date. He was 7lbs 10oz and 21 1/2 inches long.

My words can not describe the grandeur of the event and subsequent feelings so I will let you feel it through the images that were captured during Ethan’s first 24 hours…

All this new life outside of the womb takes its toll…

A HUGE thanks goes out to everyone who was there to stand by our side as we passed through this monumental moment in life! We couldn’t have done it without all of your love and support! Sarah’s sister Krista, of KM Photography, took many of the images you see here.

And lastly, as most of you know, this starts our new 365 Project with 3 people. So keep an eye out for things to come!!
