Officail Newborn Photos

I finally got a chance to set up the room and take pictures of Scarlett.  It was very sunny yesterday so we were able to use natural light, which looks much better.
At first I was struggling because Scarlett was very tired but when I tried to move her around she would wake up and cry.  So I fed her, turned up the heat and tried again.  She slept for a couple hours without stirring, it was great.
After this picture I brought Bob in the house to see if he could find Scarlett.  It took him a couple of minutes.  And we both had a good laugh about it.
 
I wanted to dress her in red because of her name and because we have so many baby pictures of Penelope in pink I wanted something a little different.
 
 
 At least someone put this hat to good use.
 
Bob thinks she looks like she fell asleep praying in the picture.

I want to do a few more newborn photoshoots before she hits 2 weeks old so hopefully we will get more sunny days.  I am really happy with the pictures but can't decide my favorite.  Which is yours?

Thanks for letting us come visit you. All through lunch, the girls kept talking about "Baby Scarlett" and how she was "sleeping".
