Ina's First Professional Pictures

A few weeks ago, our friend Ben from Ben Palmer Photography came over to the house for a little photo sesh.  The results are awesome.   My house is now going to be wallpapered in these.  Here are just a few of my favorites.

A few thoughts:

• I now have accepted the truth - that Ina is going to be a model.  Dan is sending a picture into Gerber as we speak.
• Don't wear low cut shirts during your baby's photography session - it will come back to haunt you.
• There are a few pics of Ina crying - is it bad that I want to hang those on my wall too?
• When Dan and I were looking at those pictures he may have called Ina a "ginger."  Ha!  Isn't it funny how red her hair looks? I hope it stays that way - I love red hair.  
• The crib in some of the pictures is from my grandpa - Ina's great grandpa.
• I originally wanted to get some large prints in black and white, but how could I ignore those beautiful blue eyes?

Lent Decision

I have decided to give up two (ish) things for Lent.  One - dessert.  Yikes.  Two - Facebook - with a five minute exception everyday to post my blog link, answer any correspondence, and post a pic on Ina every once in a while.
