So. Are you are one of those people, wondering how we get our sweet newborns into all of those baskets and bowls and containers and scales without waking them up?
Well, sometimes we have to improvise! And sometimes it’s not even OUR idea! Sometimes our mom’s have a great idea on how to get their baby to stay asleep for the one killer shot they hired us for… like Jennifer, who really wanted a hanging scale shot, but whose daughter was NOT having it. At all.
But if you see the photo, you’d think she was totally happy hanging in mid-air sound asleep in our scale…
Sleeping. Happy. Peaceful. Cozy even.
So HOW IN THE WORLD did we get a wide awake baby, who screamed every time we got her in the scale to finally fall asleep?
Nursing. In the scale.
Can you even believe it?
And the BEST part is that it was Jen’s idea! HA! I LOVE it when our mom’s are on board for making it work!
Jen, you are a rock star!
that’s commitment!
love it!
Hey. You do what you’ve gotta do. My sister and I have laughed for years about the time when she was leaning over the infant carrier in the back seat of the car nursing so the baby wouldn’t scream while I was driving down the highway. Hilarious!
Ladies, I don’t know why it even occured to me to try that out! All I know is you both were some of the most patient, caring gals! And I really wanted that shot! LOL! It worked!!!
Brilliant! Love, love, love it! What a story to share as the years go by! Too funny!
OMG LOVE IT!!!! Now that is commitment to a picture and nursing. I love this Mom!
AMAZING idea!! That gave me a really good laugh. What moms will do to get the perfect photo. Thanks so much for sharing.
Jennifer you are a smart one. 🙂 You have to fight for those pictures you want.
Love it, love it, love it! From both perspectives!
That is so funny. I have never had a mom do that yet, but I’m going to have to suggest it next time. Great behind the scene shots.
