Alright, here's the baby! Everybody calm down.

Okay, okay. So, I thought it would be unprofessional to talk about our new little baby girl here on our Archway blog, but Brian reminded me we're not that professional anyway! Really, we end up sharing in the lives of our clients, so why not share the most wonderful event in our life with you?

So, here she is, Ellie June. AKA: Miss Ellie, Ellie-bean, Ellie-button, June bug, Snuggle bug, Ladybug, smellyelliebelly. Daddy needs to load some more pics up there - the picture page is all that works so far. She had her own website before she was 24 hours old, and has already had two professional photo shoots, thanks to Stephanie Zettl and Gina Kelly - can't wait to get some of those loaded!!

So, I was still filming weddings up until 38weeks, and I got back to doing some editing 2 days after we got home from the hospital. Still, I'm having trouble getting into a rhythm with my project schedule. Ellie has certainly turned our lives upside down! Really, I'm trying to take advantage of working at home and when I'm with her, I'm with her.

Brian has taken to his new role as daddy. He got baptised with "fire," let's say, with changing diapers. His first time, just a couple days after we got home, she basically exploded on the changing table between diapers. He even cleaned it up! He's still a little timid with handling her - just not wanting to hurt her. He doesn't believe me that she's really not all that delicate. She's just 6 weeks old now and weighs over 11 pounds already!

It would be great to get some VIDEO loaded on her website... Or, maybe we should just start working now on her photo and video montage for her wedding. Ha!

We did find out we were having a girl at about 20 weeks. We were sooooo happy! We really were both hoping for a girl in our hearts, but hadn't really talked about it. So, we drive home together, pretty much speechless. We went our separate ways doing errands or whatever, and it hit me. I called B right away and screamed into the phone as soon as he answered: Oh my God, we have to pay for a wedding!!! :) Here's hoping the next one's a boy.
