Paul didn't plan to take labor photos that synched up with the photos my Dad took when my Mom was in labor with me, but somehow it just happened. One of the things you loose when someone dies is the ability to ask about the past. Was she really as calm as the pictures from August '83 suggest? My look is more about quiet resignation to the birth process and then immense relief to have a sweet baby girl in my arms. Enjoy.
Hanging out checking the baby's heart before labor really gets moving.
I really should have put on blue eye shadow if I was really going to do this photo shoot right.
Both Carmen and I were born with dark hair. She's had the most hair of our Biggs babies.
CMB Sr would have been beyond happy with Carmen welcomed into the family. Your momma would have been very proud of your lovely mothering of two boys and one little girl.
