our little Rebekka, just 10 days new

How quickly the days turn into weeks! I’m so glad we made time for a sleepy newborn photo session for Rebekka – of which the preparation took longer than the session itself. We promptly finished when she pooped on one of my favourite blankets before I got a chance to take any photos with it. And then it was time for a feed and snuggles with mummy, and the non-existent photos on the poop-covered blanket were all forgotten.

At six weeks old now, Rebekka has already changed so much. It’s amazing to look back on all the photos we took during her first days. Below are a few of my favourites from her special newborn session when she was just 10 days new :)

Rebekka… you are SO much loved, adored, admired… and your sweet new baby smell *sigh* if only I could bottle that up to keep for always! xx

With love,
~Natalie
