Our first family pictures!



When we were in Utah picking up Stella, our birth mom asked if we would meet her a few days later to have some pictures taken all together. Of course we agreed and the photographer had us go to a really pretty spot there in Springville and she got some pretty neat shots. Here are a few of my favorites!...Stella already looks so much bigger than this! It's amazing. She is just 5 days old in these pictures. Now I need to get her 'one month' pictures done already! :)








This one is interesting - these four hands are mine (bottom), Jake (our birth dad), Spencer (our birth mom) and Cameron (top).

I don't know if I'm hormonal or stressed or what, but I cried looking at these pictures, especially the one of the four hands with Stella... precious!!! I love the pics!!!! What beautiful memories!

These are just too cute. I know I've seen them already but I fell in love with them all over again. I especially love the one of Cameron kissing her cheek... she already has this look like "Dad, stop, you're embarrassing me!!" She is to-die-for cute. Can't get enough of her.

I love baby Stella!! Isn't it sad how fast they grow? I think that is why I always want a little baby like Stella... they seem little longer. I love how vibrant these pictures are... and of course it always helps that you three are photogenic! Love you guys

I love those pictures... the light is shining through the leaves, and it's so vivid! I do have lots of pictures of your baby shower, Jenny, but I don't think I have your email! I will double check:)

I love your pictures Jenny! They turned out so cute. I can't wait to meet Stella and see how much she's grown. It makes me want a little girl (not for another 4 years of coarse, but nonetheless)...
