and then since she was going to be here for 2 weeks and I was supposed to be taking it ease, I asked to to try and teach me how to knit. So, we headed to walmart to pick out some yarn. This cool ribbon yarn was on clearance and LOOK what I did with it?!?!?!?!!!!!!
I'm a little proud of myself, not to mention that that is my new favorite photo
a few more...
How's that? 2 posts in 1 day??? I must be bored...or lonely...or who knows?

Are you kidding me? You're a mom of FOUR kids, one of which is a newborn (which I'm assuming means you still don't sleep that much!) and you threw in 'learning to knit' on the side?? I knew you were talented (flashback to the ironing board woman who scared the bajeebies out of me in college) but this is out of control!
The wraps are gorgeous...and your ribbon one is adorable! Carson really 'makes them' though!
Okay so how much for that pastel one? :)
WOW! These are truly beautiful, the ribbon was my favorite, its so vibrant! The lighting is perfect!
OMGOSH!! I love the wraps, especially the ribbon ones. Beautiful colors and clarity.
omgosh...love them. This post is funny because l have been seeing alot of wraps to lately for newborns in photos with bright colours instead of the traditional pink and blue and l thought what a great idea. So l have been knitting a bunch for my upcoming newborn shots. I just hope mine look as great as yours. Your pictures are beautiful and your mom did a great job :)
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE share where I can get one of these for our new baby (will be here any day now!). I'm in love with them, seriously gorgeous! Now I have a new mission to find something like this while I sit here and wait for labor LOL!
Gorgeous shots and gorgeous baby :)

I love the wraps...I immediately said "I want one" in my best little kid voice. I have about 3 1/2 months until our new baby comes I better get on the ball finding someone that knits or start learning myself. The pictures are great btw.
Would you consider selling the ribbon wrap or making one for sale?
I am expecting a baby in the summer and I simply adore your ribbon wrap.
The photos are breathtaking! Love your work.

The wraps turned out beautifully, not to mention the cute mode :) I want more info too. What size did you make them? What websites offer them?
That's incredible!!! Do you have a pattern that you used, I'm so impressed! That ribbon yarn is great too.
I think these are my new favorite photos of yours! Simply adorable. And he just looks so darn cute in all of them. LOve the light blue one, and your ribbon wrap is too die for!! I think you've got a new business in your future:)
Look at you, Lil Miss Popular Talented Photographer, Mom, and Knitter. Seriously, I can't wait for your mom to give us a lesson on our trip in a few weeks - WAHOO! You should sell them! I LOVE these pictures, but you already knew that - I just had to tell you again - L*O*V*E!!!
Very beautiful!
Oh Man Amanda! This is like the thousandth time I've looked at these pictures...trying to take in every detail...from a Mommy's eye as well as a REALLY beginner photographer...I can't get enough. I love looking at your pictures...I have to do it a few times a day because I usually only get to look and study one picture before one of my little ones needs something. I love looking at them... thanks for sharing. That's so awesome that you knitted the ribbon one! I loved how it turned out. Hope all is well! Anne
Hey Stranger! I haven't commented in awhile because I'm out of different words to describe your photos. They are always so breathtaking! I am dying to get my hands on that sweet little baby! He just looks so squeezeable! We're trying to get rid of all signs of illness at our house so that I can see him someday. In the meantime -- MIss ya!
Do you reckon your mum would mind sharing the basic pattern she used? I have a heap of friends that are due to have babies and want me to take some photo's for them...I'd love to make some for the photos!
Unbelievable! Absolutely adorable. Wanna share the pattern?
ok, those are adorable! I've got two sisters who would love to have them, and I'm a knitter myself. Any chance you would share the pattern? (Or is it on ravelry?) or at least a picture without a baby, though they are adorable, so that I can see the shape of it?
thanks!
Oh my gosh, how very cute. How did you make the wraps? What size needle. I have the ribbon yard, but how many stitches, how many rows? I have to have one.
WOW Amanda! These are awesome! I love #'s 2, 5, 7, 8....... Oh Heck, I love them all! What a cutie!
OMG - Amandaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa - I'm in LOVE!!!! So AWESOME!!!!!! Do you have any walls left at home, because there will be a lot of canvas now hanging around, haha.
Can I buy the light blue one??? Please bring one to San Fran!!! :-)
I LOVE these pictures and those wraps are beautiful! I really like the ribbon wrap ALOT!
Great job Amanda! You are so amazing and that little guy of yours is adorable.
those pictures are so beautiful. Emilie is on my lap and wants to know if we can take the baby home!
I can't get over how talented you are!!! I am so amazed at what you've been able to do while still adjusting to life w/ a newborn! You put us all to shame...and inspire us at the same time! (that's a lot of !!! in one post!)
