Meet adorably handsome Kyrie, who came to see me a couple of weeks ago, on his 11th day of life! He was SO yummy!!!! He and I had to get to know each other a bit, very early on I noticed that he loved to be cuddled, and every time I would put him down to pose him, he’d be fussy and wake up! Once I caught on to what he liked, I just would snuggle him, then put him down to take a picture, then pick him back up, to put him back down on the beanbag again, and so on and so forth! Not my usual approach, but whatever works to make my teeny clients happy is what I do! And he seriously gave my like 8 smiles total! And he really loved that adorable teddy bear that I got from The Knitting Bitty! That was when he flashed the most smiles! What a little charmer he was! I know he will have his mommy wrapped around his pinky finger for sure! Capturing smiles like the ones Kyrie gave me makes me love my job even more, and everyday I count my blessings that this is my job!
