You might recognize mom and dad from their maternity session I did a few months ago. Audrey is 1 month old and such a cutie! She was very interested in my camera and was entertaining all of us with her tongue tricks.

Babies, even a few hours after birth, can mimic facial expressions. If you have a baby or can borrow one, try it out. It’s fun for you and I’m sure for the baby too! The easy one is sticking out your tongue.
