It’s A Boy! ~ Abbott Hospital ~ Minneapolis, MN

I am so excited to announce this “little” mans birth! As I am sure his Momma, Daddy and Big Sister are too! On Monday, December 21st at 5:45pm Mr. Hugh Lawrence Louis made his grand entrance into this world nine days over due at a whopping 10 pounds 5 ounces and 22.5 inches long!!! This blog is a little more personal to me because Juli and I have been friends for a long time, and this baby boy was big news! Our daughters are about the same age and they found out they were expecting on my daughters birthday! Taking pictures of family and friends just makes me love my job even more because I get to capture moments for them, like her maternity session and now her precious little one! So, when I found out that she FINALLY had him I rushed to the hospital the next morning! I just had to see him! We had been waiting on his arrival for so long I just could not get there fast enough!

Big sister and little brother pictures just warm my heart! I feel so blessed to be able to have captured big sister holding her new little brother for the first time. That is something that I hope she can look back on when she is older and cherish forever. She is so excited and proud to be a big sister. She has been waiting a long time for this.

Mom and Dad are just over the moon excited to have their son finally here! Grandma and Grandpa (her parents) flew in from California a few days before Hugh arrived so they were able to be there for them as much as they needed, which was a huge blessing for them. They had everything ready for the little guy to get here, and he just wasn’t ready yet!

Congrats again Sam, Juli and Big Sister Virginia! I cannot wait to watch your family and this guy grow!

Side Note: Baby Hugh was born at the same hospital I was born at in Minneapolis! Except baby Hugh was born in the beautiful new Mother Baby Center attached to Abbott Hospital! 🙂
