Noah’s Newborn Photos & Life Update
The same wonderful photographer who took our pregnancy photos also took some newborn pictures of Noah. These pictures were taken at our house when Noah was exactly 2 weeks old.
Life with Noah has been going very well. He is a calm and quiet baby. Nate and I are often amazed at how tolerant he is. He doesn’t fuss for diaper changes or baths. He puts up with a lot of attention from Grace. Noah isn’t sleeping through the night, but he always goes right back to sleep after he eats. Nate and I feel very lucky.
Grace has been doing great with Noah. At first she was extremely jealous when I nursed Noah. I’m not sure if she remembers nursing or if she was just upset that Noah was doing something with mommy that she wasn’t allowed to do. Either way, she was pretty emotional for the first few days. Quickly Grace adjusted and she is no longer fazed by me nursing.
Now Noah is 10 weeks old. It is amazing how much bigger he is since these pictures were taken. He is gaining better head control, watches people as they walk through a room, and gives everyone huge smiles. I feel like we are getting into a routine. Slowly I am adding “normal” things back into my day like trips the library, running errands, small cleaning projects, and light cooking.
These beautiful photographs were taken by Cicely Berkey. Local folks can contact me to find out how to get in touch with this talented photographer.
Noah is such a handsome little guy. I’m glad to hear that Grace is doing so well with him.
You have such a beautiful family!
I love these pictures! the ones with the blocks spelling his name is my favorite I think. I am sad I have to wait to see this little guy!! He will be so different by then 🙁 But I am sure he will still be adorable!!!!
I wish we did live closer. Thankfully, you won’t have to wait until Christmas!
Great photos.. they are really treasures. I like the one of Noah in the basket and the shot with his name in blocks. Looking forward to linking with you for this month’s insane goals.
Dominique, I’ve put in Insane Goals Link-Up on hold since Noah’s birth. 🙁 I loved doing it, but this just isn’t a good season of life for me right now. Thank you so much for all the times you joined in! I might start it up again in a few months.
Rebekah, he’s beautiful. Such a perfect little bean. Congratulations & many, many prayers for good sleep for you four!
I will gladly accept those prayers, Annie!
gorgeous family! Felt like just yesterday you were announcing your pregnancy!
I know, Miranda!! I’ll be posting photos from his first day of school before we know it!!
How precious! Thank you for sharing these photos!
