The Best Bits

Isaac Sleeping

Taken in a dark room with no flash and a 30sec exposure. Slightly desaturated in Photoshop.

Ah sleep. If only we were getting more of it! Am so thankful he didn’t wiggle while I was taking this.

    It’s funny when you think about it, we wait 9 months for them to emerge (strange choice of word here) from our swollen bellies and then spend entire days plotting how to get them back to sleep so we can get something done, or some sleep for ourselves. My mum always said I was beautiful when I was asleep, and only a mother could know what that means.

    Oh, my. Would it be wrong for me to drool over your son? In a completely innocent, non-harmful way? Edible, I tell you. Completely edible.
