I got to meet the beautiful Isabelle earlier this week. She has a great head of hair and some of the best baby chub around. Here is my favorite from the session:
My little Sylvie

I was going to wait until I sent out her birth announcement to post some of these but I am getting too far behind and at this rate they won’t get posted until she is three. So here are some new ones of my new one.
Sylvie’s Birthday
August 24, 2010
We went into the hospital at 11:30 on 8.9.10 for a scheduled c-section. Everything went very smoothly…it was nice to have the anesthetics work and most importantly it was great that the anesthesiologists believed me when I said there were spots that were not numb yet. It was a COMPLETELY different experience than my first c-section. As always, Patrick was wonderful. I was WAY too aware of what was going on behind the curtain and he kept me calm through the whole thing…I am telling you, it was FREAKY. But–as I said before, was all worth it though when they held little Sylvie over that curtain and I got to see her for the first time.
I have to share the last belly image because it is ridiculous. The last couple days I had more than one person ask how many babies I was carrying.
Patrick did a great job taking all the pictures he could of Sylvie’s first moments out in the world.
This one is my favorite from the day.

The black eye.

The last hour of vacation in Tablerock, Lael fell and hit her eye on the coffee table. It is her first big “owie”—first of many i am sure!
We took a family vacation with my whole family to Tablerock Lake this summer. It was the last family vacation for us as a family of three…
Weekend in KC

Playing catch up with some summer pictures. In early July we spent a weekend in Kansas City with some of Patrick’s family…
Friends.

Every once in a while Lael will just lay on her mat first thing in the morning with all of her friends surrounding her…Bunny, Wammy, Foggy, Kitty and Bankey. It is going to be kind of sad when she starts to pronounce words correctly.
This one just makes me smile.
It has been one hectic summer but I am trying to get back into the swing of things next week. I am still not taking on a ton of new shoots for a while but I do have a bunch to post. I wanted to post pictures in the order that they occurred but I can’t resist posting the most exciting event this summer.
Introducing Miss Sylvie Wetta. Mary Sylvia Wetta was 7lb 7oz and born on 8.9.10. She is pretty perfect. Delivery was a totally different experience for me this time. With Lael, I was so drugged up I fell asleep for the c-section. I was totally aware of all surgical happenings this time and though it was REALLY strange for me, I wouldn’t give up being able to see her right away as they held her over the curtain.
The one question I continually ask myself now is, “Why did I ever think ONE kid was a lot of work?”
A few more…

Here are a few more from Coletti’s newborn session. It was such a fun one because we really got to play around and try things out. The colors of her room are pink and yellow so we thought it would be fun to get some that would really look great on her walls. It started like this:
but then she fell (on to pillowy softness) and we got this:
and it didn’t interrupt her sleep one bit.
Summer Toes.
June 28, 2010
Lael and I waited on the porch today for Patrick to get home from work…she was tired of looking out the window. 
He was taking FOREVER so we decided to paint our toes with a hot summer pink…and I have to say…the kid has my feet. Since mine are slightly swollen right now, they really look alike…
One Comment
I love her face in the photo of Patrick holding her! So cute. It doesn’t look like her hair is quite as crazy a Lael’s was but very cute all the same. Congrats on your little bundle.
