Our Littlest Sky Pilot






Brigham is 3 weeks old tomorrow. What a beautiful 3 weeks! These are pictures taken by the gloriously talented Whitni Parker during his first week. As always, she never ceases to impress me and is so nice to work with. Brigham now weighs 10 lbs 9 oz and growing. His hair is getting lighter and I think soon he'll be a little blondie. We started using the "Baby-Wise" method with him and he is such a champ! He slept 6 straight hours last night and Mommy was a happy camper. I honestly believe no boy has ever had to survive so much love but he handles it like a pro. I love to just stare at him and LOVE LOVE LOVE his little dimples (so glad she got a picture of them). I also love how he fits into all his little man clothes with that nice tough chest of his and love to kiss his fat little chops! What a sweet boy.

It is worth a trip to Texas to get these pictures taken...who is this person and why doesn't she have a magazine of her own. I love these! Although, she did have a pretty adorable subject matter to photograph! What an angel baby! What is this "Baby Wise" method? I must google it, I like to sleep!

LOVE these! They are perfect! Okay, I'm SO glad you are pro Baby Wise! I know the whole sleep thing can become a very controversial subject so I tend to keep my thoughts on it to myself unless someone asks me. I've done babywise with all my kiddos and LOVE LOVE LOVE it! It's such a blessing to me; I like my sleep! Drews is doing a 5, sometimes 6 hour stretch at night right now. It makes me love him all the more! I've often wondered how people that don't know about it or don't do it can survive!

I love the pictures, but I'm just shocked you didn't take them yourself. What's up with that wonder woman? I love you to pieces and can't wait to squeeze the boy for myself!!

K Toni - what the heck is Baby Wise? Murph is now past the 6 month mark and still not sleeping worth you know what!!! Your Brigham is an angel. Seriously, the yawn... the dimples... those are the most adorable pics ever. I love the last one with the orange circle also. She is super talented. But it makes her job easy when she has such a darling baby to capture!

I love checking out your blogspot every week. As for the pictures of Brigham they are wonderful but I love the pictures that you take also. You too are just as talent. You have a very handsome little boy to add to your beautiful family. I love having Grandma see your children also. It helps her to stay in touch. You will have to post about the baby-wise for Kassy and Cyrena. Every idea is worth trying. Love you
