the loethen family

welcome, quinn!

I could stare at this animated, tiny face for days! Welcome to the world, sweet Quinn! What a pleasure to meet you.

Baby Quinn lies on her quilt, making cute expressions at the camera.

Anne and John and Caroline welcomed their new little girl in September, and the happiness in this house is palpable. Quinn is the dreamiest little babe, Caroline an incredible big sis, and I loved spending a morning with them.

The whole family snuggles together comfortably on the couch. Anne and John hold their girls close, and Quinn shows off her beautiful eyes. Caroline makes a silly face as her parents feed her baby sister in the background.

Caroline is spunky, highly capable, and already intuitive to Quinn’s movements, sounds and needs. To call her a good helper in this newborn stage seems like a great understatement.

Proud big sister holds Quinn and smiles down at her. Sisters Quinn and Caroline lie on a quilt on the floor together. Anne cuddles Caroline and tickles her in her room. Caroline shows off her big sister skills!

Quinn is itty bitty, and spent our entire time together half-snoozing or taking in everything going on around her with wide eyes. It’s very easy to fall in love with her!

Baby Quinn lies in the middle of a large pink rug with an alphabet border. John holds Quinn in his arms. Baby Quinn rests in her crib. Both parents and Caroline stand close to each other with the new baby.

My fave photo of the day. Anne, you are a fantastic mama and your girls clearly adore you.

Quinn shares a sweet moment with her mama, holding onto her fingers. Quinn perches on her mama's shoulder and Caroline leans on her dad's chest.

Anne and John, thank you for sharing these darling girls with me and my camera. I’m so happy for your family and all the beautiful memories you’re already making with Quinn! Congratulations!
