Baby Swayde

Swayde is the son of one of my oldest and dearest friends Nicki.  We've known eachother for 16+ years and have just gotten closer with age.  When she told me she was having a baby, the excitement I felt for her was amazing.  It's a beautiful thing, to watch one of your closest friends discover the love that they have for this growing baby of theirs.  It's something you can't explain to someone who hasn't had a child.  But once you do have that miracle inside of you, your heart just grows... each movement, and each sonogram, you can't imagine loving them more than you already do.  But then you see their face, and for a second, time stops...and the whole world feels right.  And then your heart, never stops growing. 

The day we went to see him in the hospital, my heart overflowed with love for him.  And I can't describe the happiness I felt for Nicki and Kyle, to begin on this journey of parenthood, to such a beautiful blessing.  He is a very loved and very happy little boy.  I am so blessed to have him in our lives. 

We did these pictures quickly for Fathers Day.  It was an unplanned, very impromptu meeting, and he was ready for dinner and bed!  But this sweet boy, put on a happy face for me, and got the job done.  Way to go Swayde!
