(we forced this kid into a party hat one too many times)
It all started one year ago....
(simon tried to help me squish the baby out)
Just over one year ago my sister Bethany flew to Philadelphia to photograph me and my family as part of her BFA final show. We were really hoping to have her here for the birth of Kimball #3. She came on a Saturday night, about 2 weeks before I was due. We knew we had 10 days before she had to leave and that it would be a major bummer if I didn't manage to bust out this kid while she was here.
(before they broke my water, see how calm I am?)
(after they broke my water, see how much fun I'm having?)
Luckily, and perhaps with the help of a list of labor starters from google, I went into labor in the early morning hours of October 21st and sometime around 11am (I feel really lame that I can't remember the actual time, let's blame that on the excruciating pain of natural child birth) I pushed out a surprisingly chubby little girl, Nora Jane Kimball.
(2 days old and so very sweet)
This year we were lucky enough to have Aunt Bethany here to photograph her first birthday party. I didn't take many pictures, besides the one where she is crying so we are very grateful to Bethany for making yet another trek on the megabus from NYC to Philly.
Happy Birthday Miss Nora Jane Kimball
