SONOGRAMS + BOWTIES | A PORTRAIT PROJECT WITH J’AIDEN ALEXANDER | 1-3 MONTHS
Dear Journal,
I gotta say…I have never known a love like this before. From the moment I saw him on his first sonogram, I’ve been obsessed with this little guy, but something happened when he first came out and I held him for the first time. It’s a feeling I can’t explain, but it it’s a euphoric feeling that consumed every fiber of my being. Every time J’Aiden looks at me…every time he smiles at me, every time he snuggles against my chest, it’s as if I discover a new level of love. To think of the miracle of him…he is living proof of the power of God. Honestly, I’m just so darn grateful to be his mama.
Like every other mom, I LOVE taking pictures and videos of J’Aiden. I thought I’d be able to control myself (Seriously, WHY did I think I could do that?), but I just want to document everything! I mean, I may be a little biased, but I DO think he is the cutest baby boy EVER, which is why I wanted to do something special with him. I got the idea of doing a monthly photo project from my dear friend Amanda, who has done one with each of her daughters. I’ve always thought it was the cutest thing to document the growth of children in such creative ways and I always said when Ethan and I have or first child, that I wanted to do the same. J’Aiden has grown so much so far. His smile, his eyes…it’s so crazy to watch him change every single day. I feel like it’s happening so fast!!!
