8/23 - Checking It All Out

Perot Center for Women and Infants, Dallas Tx

Getting a shot of this little girl with her eyes open was a real trick today. For one, she slept a
good bit and for two, I found myself just watching her through the view finder of the camera. Several
times really good photos came and went while I just stared at her. I had to remind myself I had a
camera out and to actually take photos! That just has never happened before.

Beautiful!! Savor every minute ... don't hurry even one ... babies grow up so very fast. Love you all (and I can't wait for my turn to hold this little beauty). ~~ Arta ~~

Ryan's expression was "oh she's so cute" My sentiments exactly. (good picture,as well.) I know how long you have waited for this day. May God's blessings be on her and your family always.

Great commentary, made me smile. Maybe set the camera to what my daughter calls boom boom boom (continuous shooting) and you'll get some of those shots. This one is precious!

What a beautiful baby---and, her job is to sleep. You'll find yourself staring for the next how-many years.
Cindi Smith25-Aug-2006 01:22
Well, you are a new Dad! Of course you are going to stare and ogle her! She's a beauty, Bob! Keep a watch out for her and keep those little boys away from her, at least until she's 45 or so! V
