Beatrice has been quite the distraction as I've been trying to pack and get ready for our move (a week and a half to go, aagh!). She is a great sleeper (Praise God!), but when she's awake she is just too beautiful to put down! I love all the rounded baby lines and the random, swimmy feeling of her newborn movement. I keep trying to capture them on film (as if someway I could actually capture the feel of the newness of her skin and kicks and curious eyes - I know she will mature so fast, and the photographs will never do it justice no matter how good the lighting is). After some inspiration from baby collages on Pinterest I remembered that I didn't have to fit her whole body in the frame - I could focus part by part and to get the roundness of her belly or where her hair smooths around her ear.

Oh, such sweet kissableness!
