Gavin's Newborn Pics

He's finally here!!  We are so happy to welcome this sweet boy into our family.  I will post more about him later...but I just had to share some of his newborn pics.  The pics turned out so adorable...I can't pick a favorite yet, but here are some of the highlights:

can you believe those cheeks?!


this picture makes me smile because you can see his stubborn finger poking up...we had such a hard time keeping that finger under control :)

Handsome man...love the bow tie!

sweet smile


This might be my favorite...cuddly little bear cub

love his lips in this one
The photographer is Valerie Hart & she is just amazing.  Truly amazing.  We love her so much & will always consider her an angel in our lives, sent to us during the most difficult trial of our life.  She was the photographer sent to the hospital when our sweet Taytam passed away.  Valerie was there to capture my final moments with her.  Danny was hurrying home from out of town, but wasn't going to make it to the hospital before they moved Taytam to the mortuary.  Valerie offered to come take pictures before the funeral, so we could do some nice family shots with Danny & the other kids.  Then if that wasn't enough she even came to the cemetery and took some graveside pictures for us as well.  The moments she captured for us are some of our most treasured possessions.  Words are not sufficient to thank someone for this kind of selfless love & service.  We love you Valerie!!
