Remember Penelope Jean? I was privileged to take photos of her c-section birth way back this past fall and it was such an amazing experience. I came back two days later and got pictures of little Penelope and her family in their hospital room. I’m catching up on all of my pictures (finally!) before my own little bundle of joy arrives anytime now (I’m 38.5 weeks pregnant with our second child). I love so many of these little portraits of Penelope and couldn’t decide which ones to share here … so here are a bunch of them!


Big brother Finnegan hung out in the hospital room for awhile, enjoying snacks and some favorite TV shows from Mommy’s bed. Isn’t he adorable? Finnegan is a sweet, very intelligent little guy.



This one above might be my favorite — she looks so peaceful and incredibly sweet!




I took a bunch of these family pictures in the room and there were others that turned out where the whole family was nicely looking at the camera and smiling … but I love this one above best because it’s the most real-life depiction of what it means to be a parent. Not every moment is picture perfect, but so many moments are fun, fun, fun! M. family, thank you again for welcoming me into these special days of Penelope’s life and for your patience as I took forever to get you the pictures of this second day!
