Photo Shoot

After some procrastination, Brooklyn's newborn pictures turned into her six-week-old pictures. I now know why you take pictures of a sleepy newborn versus an older baby...

Upon arrival, Brookie covered herself in spit up and then proceeded to soak Sear's pillow after her diaper was removed. She also seemed interested in looking everywhere but the camera. Too bad none of you were there to witness the charades Tim and I were pulling trying to get her attention and keep her happy. Poor Wookie--All this torture and no nap! However, despite her rough beginning, she was a very good baby and it was a lot of fun. Here are some of our favorites:

Introducing Wookie

Brooklyn Murdock, lovingly known as Wookie, was born on August 18 at 2:13 in the afternoon. A week late, she tipped the scales at a whopping 6lbs. 12oz. and was 19 in. long. One of the first comments Tim made upon her arrival was, "Wow, she looks like an alien!" I hadn't seen her yet and was horrified at his "oh so loving" comment. Luckily her poor little cone head has disappeared and we think she is the most beautiful baby girl. We are so blessed by her sweet little spirit and thank Heavenly Father every day for the opportunity to have her in our lives. We love you Wookie!

P.S. More adorable pictures to come!
