She arrived four weeks early but is healthy as can be, and just beautiful. Little Kathryn Marguerite, you are as perfect as can be and the most wonderful Christmas gift possible. <3

"When a baby is born, so is a mother." It was the coldest Sunday morning when I arrived in downtown Indy to shoot this "in home" newborn session. Sophia and Simon both offered me coffee, and helped carry my bags in. We talked and oohed and awed over the sweetness of baby Evangeline. Truly, you can tell she is going to be strong and confident like her dad, and smart and beautiful like her mom. Welcome to the world, sweet girl. You are such a gift.

I have a tender spot in my heart for mamas of all boys (We call ourselves MOABs). This is Denae and her third son, Ace Alexander. Her youngest two have birthdays in April and December and are born 19 months apart, just like mine. <3 There are so many ways are stories are similar. Motherhood is the best club ever.
