This was one crazy morning! I had been waiting for most of the night to get a call from my friend Alexis Lundberg- I knew she had gone into labor and I was waiting for the ‘go ahead’ to head to the hospital to photograph her birth. I had fallen asleep and was woken up by a text message, which I was sure was Alexis or her husband Chris. It actually ended up being Ryan to let me know that Christy had gone into labor and that they were admitted to the hospital and that she was dilated to 8 centimeters!! I jumped out of bed at about 5:00 am and headed to the hospital, also hoping and praying that Alexis could hang on to have her little one so I could make it to both. (Stay tuned for The Lundbergs story and I will post pictures soon!)

Christy was such a champ in her delivery. Her labor went pretty quickly and once she had her epidural, she was all smiles and feeling much, much better. She was joking with all her nurses, her doctor, and her family as we all eagerly awaited the birth of their little man. And we didn’t have to wait too long either! Jackson Johnson was born on January 13th, 2010 at 6:43 am. He was such a handsome little stud too! There was a very special excitement in the air through the entire process and it was very special to see the amount of family that was there and the family that was waiting outside- everyone anticipating little Jackson!

I am so excited for Christy and Ryan and their newest addition to their little family. Their healthy baby boy has been welcomed into a great, amazing family who will cherish him for life. Stay tuned for their newborn pictures which will be coming soon!

Congratulations Christy and Ryan! Jackson is beautiful and so lucky to have you two as parents. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me in to be a part of such an amazing gift.
