Rewind: First Month in Photos

This is a photo story of the first month of Monty's life. The Falcon's were still hoping to make it to the Super Bowl, people were lining up to meet Monty, and he has lots of firsts that still needed to be captured. We tried having a newborn photo shoot (which was a bust the first time) and I started taking pictures every week to document his growth. A special thank you to my friend Area Walton (and her mother!) for giving Monty a beautiful blanket that we are taking these weekly photos on!!

Rewind: Hospital Story in Photos

So I have finally been able to go through the thousand plus images we have taken over the past three months. I have deleted many (we have so many "duplicate" styles with the fast action shutter) and tried to arrange chronologically. This is a flashback in pictures....

These images take you from the hospital till our first moments alone as parents :)
