<\/a>\nLiya was awake for this part–I love her expression here!

<\/a>\nLove this next shot. Just a natural moment and in this one their cat, Schlimy, makes an appearance in the background.

<\/a>\nLiya was looking for a snack so I got a tour of her bedroom in the meantime. Love how they decorated! There was a little bird and an elephant theme going on. They found the pillow first and decided to incorporate the characters elsewhere, too.
\nThey had the stuffed ones made from etsy to carry them through the nursery.

<\/a>\nCheck out the elephant her Daddy painted above the crib. That was my favorite part!<\/p>\n
Love the next two of David snuggling little Liya: Pam found me online many months ago, when she was just a few months pregnant and already looking forward to having her baby’s first moments captured.

\nMommy’s turn!
\n<\/a>
\nAnd the happy little family:
\n<\/a>
\n<\/a>

\nGotta love the quick snap of Liya with the 2 family cats. Schlimy we saw earlier. Here is Bip, too. The 17 year old gray cat. Yup–seventeen!
\n<\/a>
\nWe got tons of gorgeous images of baby Liya once she’d fallen back into a deep sleep:
\n<\/a>
\n<\/a>
\n<\/a>
\nAnother few family photos…Notice the elephant family on the couch pillows below. Random but awesome coincidence given her room decor!
\n<\/a>
\nA quick few outside–brrr!
\n<\/a>
\n<\/a>
\nAnd one more peaceful, sleepy-baby face to linger on…
\n<\/a>
\nPam and David–it was such an honor to photography sweet Liya and to be able to capture these precious moments for you all to treasure!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
