Do you remember this beautiful mama from awhile back, my sweet friend Kelly? This is her very special little girl, Baby Z. We had grand intentions of taking newborn pictures as soon as she was born. Unbeknownst to her parents, little Z was born with Down Syndrome and congenital heart defects that needed immediate attention. So, we didn’t get to take newborn pictures…but we’re here now with her adorable nine month pictures!
Let me just say, this little girl is a fighter! She has been through two separate heart surgeries and has been dealing with medical issues since she was born, but you just can’t keep her down! She is a sweet, happy little girl who is taking everything life throws at her in stride and I am proud to know her. I’m also proud to count her strong, supportive mom and dad as friends. Life threw them a curve ball when Z was born, but they never wavered in their faith in God and their purpose in life – being great parents to their darling baby girl. If you’d like, you can read more about Kelly’s journey into motherhood with baby Z here.
Without further ado, here is adorable baby Z! I’m warning you – she’s almost too cute to handle!
Even having to be on oxygen can’t keep this girl down!
I’d love to say this adorable idea was mine, but her creative mama came up with it. Aren’t they cute?
