Sweet Shot: babysitting

I get to babysit my niece this week.

ALL week, y'all.

In NYC.

The sacrifices I make for family, right?


Yup, Lulu is a tyrant. She sleeps through the night, eats well, takes 4 naps a day, and has this hilarious panting laugh that her parents have lovingly dubbed her "nerd laugh."


How I am suffering. Please don't ever not ask me to do this again.


She's so sweet, it kills me. From the top of her fuzzy head down to her roly-poly thighs and her petite little toes... I sure do love everything about my Lulu!


PS to RG: these shots are SOOC without a wide angle lens. see? you can go to NYC and survive with basic gear (and no PS or LR to get rid of the tungsten cast). this doesn't help you, does it?

Good gravy, Lulu has grown up so fast! Where did the time go? She was just born!!!

Honestly, she gets cuter every time I see her photograph!

Have fun snuggling her!

I want to pinch her cheeks. Softly, of course. She's such a doll!

Did you decide if you're going to pay B&H a visit?

You've totally convinced me. I no longer want a wide angle lens. ;D

Awwwh Marshy! I am so glad you are here, too! Thanks for taking good care AND lots of good pics of Lulu :) She loves her Marshy eemo... I'm pretty sure she'd say it if she knew how. Maybe you and Austin can work on teaching her that this week!
