Being around a brand new baby makes my heart pound. Not for reason that most might think. I LOVE new babies, I just know what it took for them to get here and it makes me light headed just thinking about it. This is baby Joseph. In these pictures he is 15 hours old. I am friends with this family and was so excited that she wanted me to come and take pics while they were still in the hospital. When I was getting ready, the nurse came and told the mom that she needed to walk. I got to be alone with that baby for about 10 mins. to do whatever I needed to! It was SO much fun. I tried not to smooch him too much, but it was hard.

My husbands brother got married this weekend is Salt Lake City. Can I just tell you, it SUCKED! OK, so the wedding was perfect and the bride and groom were stunning, but I didn't get a turn to take pictures. The "professional" photographer was paid hourly and the wedding ran an hour late so I didn't get a chance to do any pictures with them. I had to sneak up behind the photographer and get what I could. I know that the professional was ready to beat the crap out of me, but HELLO, it's my family so keep your panties on. I would say that I would rather watch someone eat my favorite chocolate cake while I am on a diet, than watch another photographer work. It was so hard!!!! I managed to get a few shots that will be just fine for me so I can't complain too much.

Don't you love her shoes, her sash and her freaking cake? Everything was SO beautiful!!!
