She isn't really mine, but I get to share.
Last week I was invited by my sister Celeste to participate in the birth of my newest niece Adria Chalynn Lawlor.

This is the before. Sorry it's blurry, it was dark in there.


Very proud mommy. And she should be! Celeste did the whole thing by herself, no drugs. She did it all by deep breathing, meditation, and loving support. That's where I got to participate. =)

See how shiny she is? She is still so new here, not even cleaned up yet. She might be 20 minutes old....

First family picture. I love being a photographer.

Happy.

Here she is the next day, much cleaner ;>

Absolutely Perfect.

I took this one from Celeste's blog. She is like 5 days old here.
Thank you Casey and Celeste for letting me be a part of this.
