Okay, I seriously cannot get enough of this baby... Good thing I see Chrystal all the time! I'm starting to get baby fever here...and that is something my husband would be very happy about! He wants another baby already! But, I am a total planner, and I want them at least 3 years apart... Unless the good Lord throws us a surprise, that's probably what will happen! :) But seriously, Liam was the perfect baby model. He slept almost the whole time and if he woke while I was posing him, a few pats and he was fast asleep. He let me pose him in any way I wanted which was just wonderful! And he didn't poop or pee on anything (or anyone!) It was so easy with this little guy. I had ordered some very cute beanies to be made for him, but unfortunately, Liam came before they could be made or sent. But that's what creativity is for! That sweet little "bowtie" is one of Savannah's bows! LOL. And that monster doll is something his mommy crocheted for him. Isn't it so cute?! I'm actually happier with the props we ended up using. A young 4 days old...I always forget how precious and tiny newborns are. They make Savannah look giant. Liam, you have so many people that love you so much. I know your Daddy can't wait to see you. Until then, be good for mommy. :)

Happy Birthday Liam Thomas!!! - San Diego Birth Photography
I had the pleasue of being friend, support, and photographer for one of my best friends, Chrystal. We've been waiting a loong time for this little Mr's arrival. You may remember this beautiful mommy from her maternity pictures which can be viewed here and also a few posts below. Daddy is a Marine helping the Afghanistan effort and was on the phone periodically through the laboring process. This birth really hit home because there were so many parallels between my labor with my daughter, Savannah. I had the wonderful opportunity to have my birth photographed to help document the experience so Savannah's daddy, who was in also fighting a war in middle east (Iraq) could experience it in some way as well. I will forever cherish those photos and I wanted to do the same for someone. Chrystal labored long and hard without the epidural. I couldn't help but tear up watching her in so much pain because I have been there myself! It was such a relief when she finally got it and was able to relax, get some sleep, and well, not be in pain! Liam Thomas was born September 18th, 2010 at 11:46 am weighing a healthy 8 lbs 10 oz! This little man shares the same birthday as my nephew Jackson. Two years ago exactly, I was in the hospital with my sister during her labor, while her husband was stuck in El Paso, TX due to Army duties. My daughter Savannah was born at 11:47 am and I totally called it that Liam was gonna be born then too! (I was one minute off, darn!) Liam's daddy heard his first cries over the phone, along with everyone else in the room crying. Hahaha. I love you Chrystal, you did an amazing job and you're going to be an even more amazing mother of two beautiful boys. I'm so happy I could be a part of this special day. God is good.
Here is a slide show of Chrystal and her birthing experience. Grab some tissues! :)
