I had a rough day with Preston yesterday. He didn't get much sleep the night before and was Mr. Cranky all.day.long. Also, this is probably more than you want to know, but he also had an insanely disgusting diaper that required both of us to remove all clothing, take immediate baths, and do immediate laundry to save our clothes. However, I woke up this morning knowing it was a new day, and I have a renewed sense of thankfulness for my little boy.
My good friend and sorority sis Candice took some beautiful pics of Preston when he was just one month old. Here are a few... so enjoy! You can look at more of her photos on her brand new Web site, www.candicelynnphotography.com. So proud of her! And so proud of the sweet little boy in these pics. :)
Just as an aside - I laugh at the newborn pics I see now of sleeping babies, put in various poses, outfits, etc. Ummm yea right. First of all, my child is obviously ALL boy, because even as a newborn, he was super squirmy. To this day, he doesn't stay still... even when he is sleeping! He also NEVER slept - was wide awake all the time from day 1. It was a MIRACLE from GOD he was not crying for these pictures. Don't misunderstand though, Candice did get multiple pics of him crying. With that said, I am by no means complaining. I love my little boy and I love how busy he is already... what a handful! :) Everything about him melts my heart.

Love the pictures! The first pic is my favorite!The only way we got Ethan to "stay asleep" was to use the hairdryer. Odd I know, hopefully it's not considered child abuse! Something about the heat and the hum of it made him completely relaxed. Which led to another problem....pee and poo everywhere. Multiple times. I guess you have to pick your battles.
Aww, yay! I'm so glad you love them!
SO funny Laura... the hairdryer works for us too! Thank goodness, or my hair would look awful all the time. He also likes the fan in the bathroom.
Candice - can't thank you enough!!!
