Jane and Ken have brought another beauty into the world. 
This is me doing the whole “newborn baby as a photo prop” thing. I have to admit it turned out really cute, although I prefer the more natural, true-to-life pictures of the early weeks of a babies life. Mostly because I know from personal experience how fleeting those introductory weeks are. I love how the whole family slows way down and sort of floats through the day tired but elated at the same time.

I love this, checking out the new body in the house.
A lot of this goes on -hello, I’m your mom, I’m your dad. We’ve been dying to meet you… A lot of staring and smiling…
Ah, beautiful Jane. Meant to be a mother.
Ken is wonderful- such a natural dad.
So many congrats to you all! xoxo Mary

kristen - excessive cuteness! (and i’m not just talking about the dad.)
and how did they manage to find a blanket that matched the baby’s lip color so perfectly?!
