Big 'G', Little 'G', what begins with G?

Dr. Seuss is one of my FAVORITE authors. And if you have ever read 'Dr. Suess's: ABC An Amazing Alphabet Book' you may know that the page dedicated to 'G' reads; 'Big G, little g, what begins with G? Goat and goo-goo goggles, G...g...G'
Well, a couple of weeks ago my friend Lisa mentioned that she calls her two boys (that are just 369 days apart in age!) Big 'G' and Little 'G' so as to not call them each other's names. As soon as she said it, I immediately thought of the Dr. Suess book!
In Lisa's story, this would be 'Big G' aka Gage.
And this is 'Little G' aka Garrett.
Oh, and right behind Big G is another adorable little 'G'....Gabbie!
A day at the river, hanging out on the beach was the perfect time to squeeze in a little newborn photo shoot for Little G. He was such a trooper. I think he slept 95% of the time we were there!
Even though he slept like a champ and let his Mommy relax for a little (well, as much as you can relax with a just-turned-1 year old on the run) I did manage to catch Little G with his eyes open for a couple of shots.
I also captured some pretty cute pictures of the full moon that was out in the middle of the afternoon!Doesn't Gage' adorably chubby little self remind you of the Michelin Man? And we can just pretend that those are my tan, toned legs off to the left. Oh wait...that won't work cause I was taking the picture!
If you are curious how Big G gets such beautiful milky-white skin and plump buns, the answer is MILK...and LOTS of it!
Back to the newborn...
Would you look at this adorable little doll!?!
Makes me wish I had just one more little one to snuggle. Probably not going to happen but seeing little babies always gives me the fever!
I bet the one big question weighing on your mind is: "How on Earth did you manage to catch Little G smiling so much?"
Simple. You would smile too if you had just emptied your tummy all over the pesky photographers prop! (see the proof in the bottom right of the pic below!) ISH!Once the damage was done, we figured we may as well make the best of it and capture these adorable little smiles :)
Oh and after the shoot was over, Little Mister whizzed all over the sling too. Good thing it is white and could take a good bleaching :) I just love photographing little sleepy newborns. I recently picked up two new baby props that I can not wait to try out. Now I just have to get my hands on this little bubba again!

  1. These newborn one's are amazing Carrie! I love the sling and you captured his sweet little smiles just perfectly! I have been looking for a shaggy rug or maybe it's a blanket. Where did you find it? I'm excited to see more...you're awesome! Hope your having a fun weekend!

  2. Oh my gosh, those pictures are awesome! What a sweet little guy, even if he did poop all over your stuff. :) Love the little moon out on the beach too, haha!
