Week One - March 8-14, 2009

The weeks theme will be Favorite First Picture.

Got a picture of your little one from those first few days together? How about the first time you held them, or looked in their eyes?

Share it with us, and if you have a short story to explain the pic feel free to add it.

Make sure to add your screen name in addition to your pic in the comment section of this post, and I'll add them throughout the week as I get them.

Oliver asleep on me in the hospital. It's my favorite because he looks so sweet and peaceful, and still looks like that when he sleeps.

You guys have all seen this one before, but it is still one of my very favorites! He was 3 days old, and snuggled up on DH's shoulder.

The first time I held my son.... They very quickly took him from me, as he had very rapid breathing at birth, but this moment was THE most special; A close look will reveal a tear in my eye.

I looked through all of our pics from the first few days and kept coming back to this one. Eventhough I look horrible (understandably since I had just pushed out a 10+lb baby) I was feeling so much joy at this moment, it was the first time I saw/held my baby boy.

The day we came home from the hospital. I'm conflicted when I see this because on the one hand, we were blissfully naive about what was about to go down, but on the other hand, I KNOW what was about to go down and it makes me nervous just looking at the picture! One of her nurses made the hat for her.

This is Harrison looking up at me a few hours after he was born. One of the first times I really got to hold him after the c-section.

This was taken in the hospital. It reminds me of a picture of my mom and I when I was born. I love how he is so small and cuddly.
