Patty-Cakes

evWhen Owen was almost 1 week old we had a consultant from Patty-Cakes come and take impressions of this hand and foot. The impressions will be bronzed and mounted. We haven't received them yet (due to Christmastime) but are sure they will be amazing.

First Owen's hand and foot were prepared with baby powder to prevent sticking.

Getting an impression with a screaming baby does not work.

The results of the impressions.

It took her several tries to get Owen's hand just right but she was finally happy with the result. We were both surprised at the level of detail the impressions picked up and how big his hands looked when all spread out. We are looking forward to seeing the final product.
