I always know the day I have a newborn on the schedule, it’s going to be  good one.  Entering a home where new life has just been welcomed is like taking a happy pill!  No matter how sleep deprived mom and dad are, they are beyond proud to show me their new little one.  There are lots of comments about how the first few days have been and how everyone is adjusting, even the family dog.  Life is good.  It’s always a good day.

Erica contacted me a short time before she was due to give birth and told me to be expecting her call as soon as Harper made her arrival!  Seeing her name pop up in my inbox a few days after the due date was a rush….SHE’S HERE!!!

undefined There’s a bit of a learning curve involved with dressing a newborn…and I’m convinced that people who design baby clothes have never physically had to do this!   Jon was a little worried about getting the dress over Harper’s head ;)
