I have to. OK, I'm not. But you must. And when you do, you must have Laura Siebert photograph your little darling and then buy me a really, really big print so I can hang it over my fireplace where I'll look at it all the live long day. While my laundry goes undone and my children's noses unwiped and dinner burns and days pass. I will stare lovingly into the eyes of your baby. Cuz I'm not having another. But if I did, you better believe Laura would be taking the first photos. She is that good. No, she's even better than that. (btw, when you enter her website, it won't link right to it, but click under gallery - newborn, and you'll see the beauty of which I speak...)
And you know what? I know her. Well, I used to. We were band geeks together in high school. There go those stereotypes again. See? I never thought of Laura as an artist. Funny thing is, the last time I saw her was at Pookie's bedside in the peds unit of a local hospital. Laura was Pookie's nurse for one night shift. And now, she takes pictures that are this good. Go see. You won't regret it. And you will be changed.
Yes, she is that good.
And I have to go now and resuscitate my husband. He just read my blog title over my shoulder. Sorry, Honey. It's not true. I promise. But if it were, I'm telling you, Laura'd be my girl...

I was so excited for you and of course couldn't believe what I was reading. Such sadness when I learned you were just teasing! Love those photos and need a refresher on who she was in HS. Help me remember her my mind is completely blank.
Oh my gosh, someone almost had to come revive me also! Gotta go look at the pictures now.
Karin! When you said you were going to "mention" me on your blog, I had no idea I would get an entire post. You are too too kind. It came up in my google alert. The last name is Sie though, so if someone searches for me and think I don't exist that's why (:
As far as the band geek thing; yep....guilty as charged. I have proof

Her work is amazing! I get that feeling when I see beautiful infant photos too! You crack me up!
I really do not think I count in the pay it forward game. Just Frizz and Tricia. But thanks for the thought anyway.
such great photographers out there! Makes me want to be photographed all the time :).
Thank you sooooo much for the well wishes! Good to see your avatar popping up on my blog again!
First time visit to your blog ~ you have a beautiful family. I have 4 little ones too.
I'd love to come back and read all about your adventures!
