Well! The lil’ bundle that wasn’t exactly visible in her true form for Amanda & Jeremy’s maternity session arrived on March 6. Eight days later, I got to see her preciousness. Her name is Hana (pronounced Hahhh-na)…named for the location of A&J’s honeymoon…Hana, Maui (Hawaii). In Hawaiian culture, it means “flower”…. and like a flower, this darling is beautiful.
And so is her smile…though fleeting…
And sometimes, they call her One-Eyed Willy. Dunno why…. 
FAVORITE
Let’s face it… newborn shoots can be exhausting for all parties involved. Right, Hana?
I love when parents see my previous work and then get their own ideas. Amanda & Jeremy got this shell and thought it’d be great as a temporary bed for Hana. They were right! Another fave!!
And her shoes have to match her level of cuteness, according to daddy. 😉

How sweet, this blanket is from Amanda’s infanthood!!!
And I’ll close with a bit o’ humor… from a Mizzou fan. 😉
Amanda & Jeremy…well, you did it. You brought a lovely darling into this world. And whether she’s super feminine like her name or a rockin’ chick like her skull cap hints at, she will surely grow up loved! Thank you so much for letting me into your home!!!!

Anonymous - Jeremy and Amanda,
Wow, what a beautiful family! Great pictures and thanks so much for sharing the precious new Hana with those of us who have been thinking about all three of you for over 9 months and will continue to be thinking about you all. May God richly bless your new family and Grandma Deb and Aunt Shannon too.
Love and Hugs from California,

Anonymous - What a beautiful baby… she is just too cute. Hana is lucky to have two parents who are so in love,but now she just wants a sibling to play with.
