Keep it shakin’ in ‘010 | year end slideshow

Carrie — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 07:06:11 +0000

I am taking a break from packing for our New Years camping adventure… to put up one last blog post this year. I thought I would share our holiday card and wish you all a healthy and happy ‘010!

And, I can’t say good-bye without holding a toast to all my babies born in ‘09. See my tribute to them here (posted as a PAGE link above the header ): Babies Born 2009. Until next year…

Vote for Lily!

I’ve never done this sort of thing before, but boy could I see Lily up at the Gap. Don’t you agree? If you have a minute, please vote for my Lil’ bean! Vote for Lily!

Announcing Ian and Libby. | San Diego newborn baby photographer

Quite belated, I KNOW! I was waiting until my sister mailed out all of her announcements. So, even though they are now 3 months old and more than DOUBLE their birth weight, I’m sharing their birth announcement. It is a 5×5 trifold. Here is the cover and a micro-sized version of the inside when un-folded. © carrie sandoval | baby

Libby, my niece. | San Diego newborn baby photographer.

I can’t believe my niece and nephew are already over two weeks old! And I was really hoping to have an “introduction” post by now, but I am so sad to report that our little Ian is still in the nicu. He was all set to come home last Sunday, but then a hole was discovered in his intestine (necrotizing enterocolitis). He is doing great and we are hoping he can come home in the next two weeks. In the meantime, I am having a blast with my little Libby girl. I hope I don’t wear her out by the time her brother joins her in the modeling! © carrie sandoval | baby

Happy Anniversary, Donna and Blaise.

Huh? Today is my sister and brother-in-laws 7th wedding anniversary. And now, it is also the birth date of their twin babies! What a way to ring in the seven year itch, right? I would say that I have anxiously awaited this day for 7.5 months now… but it more like *years*. Elizabeth “Libby” Kay (4lbs 13oz) and Ian Blaise (5lbs1oz) were born at 9:31 and 9:32 this morning. Libby is doing fabulous, as is Ian… but is being watched closely in the NICU since his lungs weren’t quite as ready. I wish I could announce them with a picture, but since I haven’t yet met Ian face to face (or face to lens?), I will instead showcase “the calm before the storm”… aka… my sister and her fabulous belly! The first image was taken just 15 hours before the birth (now, don’t go blaming me!). I must thank my sister for being such a trooper and letting me try my crazy ideas out on her.

Savoring the last bits of baby-hood.

(Naps make happy babies!)

Every time I do this (photograph my girl while sleeping), I think it will be the last time she lets me. Thank you, Lily. Thank you. She’ll be 2 in a couple of weeks.

My girls.

Lily Ana. We used to joke around saying she was the most photographed baby. Yes, it’s slowed down quite a bit… she is 19 months old now… what can I say?
