Precious

I have anxiously been awaiting Olivia's arrival. I attended her Momma's baby shower a few months ago, and presented her with a gift certificate for Olivia's first pictures. I know it may seem cheesy, but I truly wanted to give the family a gift that they could always treasure.
Olivia just turned 5 weeks old, and we FINALLY had our first meeting.
Olivia is precious. There is no better word that comes to mind. She may only be a few weeks old, but her personality is starting to shine through. She has attitude, I promise. And if she isn't happy, she gets to quivering that bottom lip, and it just makes you want to make her world perfect. I know she will be a Daddy's girl, even if Roberto won't admit it.
Daniel, the big brother, is nothing short of amazing. He was so gentle and sweet to his baby sister. As always, Daniel is so well behaved, saying "yes maam", "no maam", "excuse me", and calling me Auntie Becca. It always makes my day to hear his wonderful manners, and I can just pray my kids are half as good as him one day, even if my mother curses me with brats(she says just as I was... pshh). Thanks Mom!
It had been a while since Candace had a newborn around the house. At the shower, she expressed the nerves and doubts she had. However, if you could see her now.... She and Roberto are absolutely amazing parents. I love seeing their little family together. The shoot was nothing extravagant. We just hung out in their backyard. However, for their family, it was perfect. The guys played baseball while the girls hung out in a lawn chair. It was a moment to cherish, and I hope these pictures are just for that...cherishing moments that will no longer exist, but having the photos to capture the memories forever.
I love you guys, and I hope you enjoy this sneek peak!!
