Other pictures HERE!
This is the winning passport picture. Daisha's birth certificate arrived on Wednesday morning and we got the passport application mailed out Wednesday afternoon. We are hoping and praying that they will accept it as they are very picky about picture quality. We thought the picture is good in the face of the obstacles. Here is what we were looking for.
1. On a light background
2. Facing the camera
3. Looking at the camera
4. Both ears showing
5. No hands by the face
6. No shadows.
This sounded hard enough for an adult, let alone a newborn baby who cant hold their own head straight, are rarely awake, and not patient. So, with two shoots and a little grace, we got the picture. We also posted a couple of other pictures we have gotten from other "shoots" of Daisha. We cant wait until she starts staying awake longer and smiling as then we can start really snapping the pictures. She continues doing well and growing. On her due date, July 13th, she weighed 7 1/2 pounds. The doctor said that her birth weight at full term would have been a little more than that which would have made for a decent sized little girl. The doctor remains pleased with her progress. I feel like I continue aging at twice the normal rate as I worry about every little sound she makes as she is a noisy baby. But, we remain so thankful for the Lord's provision in going before us and being a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.
Amen!

Ahhh, the passport pics! What a challenge with a newborn, huh?!?! She is such a doll. Please give her hugs and kisses from her cousin, Alea. She can't wait to meet her and do all kinds of girly stuff!!!
