Daphne's First Day



































Thanks to my friend Amy Pearson, we have some lovely pictures of Daphne from the hours after she was first born.

Amy volunteers with Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep (www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org), an organization where professional photographers volunteer their time to come to the hospital to take photos of terminally ill or stillborn babies. Since we were unsure of Daphne's life expectancy, Amy was on hand for her birth to capture all the moments we would have.





























She did an amazing job.

Of course, now that Daphne is thriving, we will have Amy do a photo shoot of her in her healthy state.

Daphne is becoming one of those babies who is constantly being blinded by the flash of her camera-happy parents' photo opps, so I'm sure she'll do fine hamming it up.
