OHHH MY GOSH. Booking a birth photographer was definitely the best decision my pregnant mind made during those long long uncomfortable months. (Ok…they weren’t that bad.) I just got my birth story pictures in the mail from the most wonderful Mari-Catherine Vinton of Mavin Photography. I want to scream and bawl and scream again and smile and scroll through the pictures a million more times. THEY ARE AMAZING.
Between drugs, sleep deprivation.. oh, and birthing a 9 lb 3 oz baby, November 1st is a bit fuzzy in my mind. This day was a defining moment in my life and I NEVER want to forget the rush of emotions I felt on that special fall day. The anticipation. The excitement. The pain. The first signs of his arrival. Seeing my son for the first time. Seeing my husband with our son. The overwhelming feeling that this baby was mine. The instant love. To be able to relive these moments (without feeling the pain) through the amazing, emotional images by Mari-Catherine make me that HAPPIEST mom alive.
Head on over to Mari-Catherine’s blog to watch the birth story slideshow and the story of his day on our family blog here.
