Meeting Ava

My niece Stacey and her husband welcomed their fourth daughter into the world earlier this month.

My daughter Jen enjoys taking photos of newborns..our home became the studio.

I was an assistant..and took a few photos myself.

Beautiful baby and mom! Ava is one of the most popular names right now, funny how things go in cycles- remember Ava Gardner?

Welcome to Ava. She has a beautiful mom, who doesn't look old enough to be the mother of one little girl, much less 4! I'm going to feel old all day! :)

What adorable photos. Ava looks so sweet. I'm with you on the hat photo--it did make for a precious composition.

Congratulations to your niece Stacey--and to the whole family. Ava may turn out to be one of the most photographed babies of her generation! ;)

They 're all precious and beautiful...both Mom's and baby. Look st the cute little outfit too. I'm thinking maybe I should get some of those head things as it might cover up my receding hairline! LOL!

Oh Heavens, precious time. Certainly you must have had a magnificent day meeting Miss Ava! Four girls. Oh I know it well. Do they only have the four girls? I loved having just one gender. I'm easily confused so the simpiler God made it for me the better. But mostly it was just so amazing being able to be a mom. Congratulations to Stacey on the birth of her wonderful daughter. What a blessing, to the entire family!
