Leyton - {Family & Baby} - Sneak Peek!

If you're a fan of mine on Facebook, you've probably already seen a few of these from my sneak peek earlier. But, as always, I've added a few more on here!

Leyton & his parents were one of the winners for the It's a Preemie Thing giveaway. One of the things I have loved the most about meeting these families is hearing their amazing stories. Leyton was born 10 weeks early after his mom was on hospital bed rest for a week. He had to stay in the NICU for 8 weeks and finally got to go home 3 days shy of his 2 month birthday. He had a very rough start, but is doing quite well now! 

When we discussed what they wanted out of the session, his mom said that Leyton is an 8th generation Texan, so she wanted some in a bluebonnet field. I loved the idea! She also said he would have his DOC band (or baby helmet as I refer to them as) by that time and planned to decorate it with Rangers stuff (Go Rangers!!). She even sent me a picture of him from his first Halloween. He was still in the NICU at that time, but they dressed him up as a Texas Rangers baseball player... in a Build a Bear outfit that was STILL too big. He was so cute and it really put things in to perspective of just how tiny he was & what a little fighter he is.

I'll shut up now & get to the goods, but before I do I just wanted to say THANK YOU for such a great session & for sharing your story & your family with me!
