Kate recently had another photo shoot with the wonderful Andrea Elberg, and despite things getting off to a rough start, I’m so thrilled with how the pictures turned out! We originally planned on having Kate’s pictures taken outdoors at the UW-Arboretum, but shortly after arriving we were SWARMED by mosquitoes! In less than ten minutes I had over 100 mosquito bites all over my body–even through my jeans! It was absolutely crazy (and ridiculously itchy), but somehow, by the grace of God, Kate didn’t get one single bite–I was so grateful for that!
We didn’t really have a Plan B in mind, but it quickly turned into going back to my house so I could get out of my clothes and bathe in Caladryl. Once home, we decided to just plop Kate down on the kitchen floor in the same location where her newborn photos were taken, and Andrea snapped away!
Beautiful pictures of a gorgeous baby!
These pictures are so sweet! Thanks for sharing!
Soooo adorable! What a happy girl!
We have our family photo shoot in a few weeks and I can’t wait to get some pics of my 2 babies together =)
Super cute!! I love the pics with the antique suitcase.
Holy crap, I can’t even handle the cuteness!! She’s so big and smiley. Those pictures really are gorgeous, I love the pearls!
Precious!! I love her little tuft of hair.
She is ADORABLE!! And I love how expressive she is. I hope our little girl is as happy and smile-y as yours!!

Thank you so much everyone! I’m one proud mama. 😀 Thank you for all your comments!
She is beautiful! She looks a lot like your husband in some of these photos but she can imitate some of your expressions dead on!
I love the photos. The pearls are adorable and the ones with the suitcase and flower are beautiful. I am expecting a daughter in February – these are great ideas! Thanks
What a little LADY! So cute. She will just love looking back on these some day.
