Baby Scarlet!

I had the great privilege of helping Megan during the first week of little Scarlets life. She is so sweet, smiles all the time, and is very easy to comfort. I was there until she was 9 days old and I never heard her cry more than a few minutes. I hope she stays that way! Here she is a few hours old! With Auntie Amy, with GrandmaMore at the hospital Then as the week went on it was hard not to snap a few.Last day I was there, we took some pics in a dress. She wasn't too excited to be unwrapped. She is a typical baby, loves to be swaddled. Isn't Megan beautiful!!I had to have a pic with her, but she was done as you can see below!
What an incredible experience it is to be a mom! I am so grateful I have the health and the privilege to help my daughter and be with that little celestial being.
Love you all!

What a cutie and Megan looks awesome for just having a baby! I can't believe how tiny she looks or maybe I am now used to looking at a chunky monkey everday. You quickly forget how little they are and what you captured is priceless.

Mom, you beat me to it! Now my post won't be as exciting, but that's ok. Everyone's been wanting more pics, I'm glad everyone got to see them. The pics turned out really good. I'm glad to have them! I love how you put all the pics up and made the collages- it looks great! I'm so glad you came out. We needed you! Love you!

She's so adorable. I love how she's got this little smile in almost all of her pics like she's saying "I'm so happy because this is exactly where I belong!" Such a cutie. And Megan looks GREAT!

There have been several babies born lately, Megan's and Jessi's,included, who come out smiling. Is that the new thing? Later Day babies are so happy to get here they come out smiling? So sweet. I could hardly believe my eyes when our little Emma looked right in my eyes and smiled in the delivery room. Little Scarlet is so cute and Mom, Dad, and Grandma look so happy.
