Gerrit’s Newborn Photos

Gerrit had his newborn photos taken by FootSteps Photography a few days after he turned two weeks old. They usually get taken earlier than this, but I was concerned that Gerrit would look really yellow because of his jaundice and pushed them back a bit. As usual, I had no reason to worry. 🙂

We started out with some family photos. They turned out really sweet, despite how tired we were!

I love that she is also a mom, so I trusted her with Gerrit while getting a much-needed break. Kiel_MatNB_99 copyThis next one makes me laugh every time…

I really wanted some photos with Andrew’s military uniform, since that’s a big part of our lives right now.

Kiel_MatNB_75I know I shared a lot of photos, but I think they all are just so cute! I know Gerrit is going to grow and change so quickly, and I will love looking back at these moments when he was just a tiny newborn.
