I think around this age is when parents start saying, "She`s really becoming herself."
Suddenly there are favorite songs, funny little expressions, and opinions about everything.
It`s also the age where they still reach for you without hesitation.
That`s a pretty special combination.

Parents often tell me they don`t want to forget this stage. Not the tiny fingers. Not the sleepy stretches. Not the way their baby curled up so perfectly in those first few weeks. That`s exactly why newborn photos matter.

Proof that family photos don’t have to be perfect—they just have to be your family. ❤️
Mom and Dad sneak a kiss. One daughter is officially disgusted. Everyone else can’t stop laughing.
Those genuine little moments are often the ones that become everyone’s favorite memories.

Nobody warns you how quickly newborns stop looking like newborns.
One day they`re all curled up and sleepy.
A few weeks later they`re stretching out, making eye contact, and already looking more like the little person they`re becoming.
Those first weeks are their own little chapter.
