Many new babies are not too keen on sleeping, but 4 month old baby girl, Joey Marie Choi, can’t get enough! So much so that mum, Laura Izumikawa, longed for when she would wake up.
“I would end up just staring at her face all day and night because I was just so in love,” Laura told The Huffington Post.
“Because Joey slept so deeply, I thought it’d be fun adding little props on her just to send some hilarious pictures to our parents. It was a way to memorialize her growth and little milestones.”

While waiting for her sleeping beauty to awaken, photographer Laura began taking adorable photos of this cute little munchkin. The images were initially lightly propped and posed, but Laura’s creativity soon took over.
She styles such eye-catching compositions that her following on Instagram has grown to over 120,000!

“A couple times she’s woken up while I’m dressing her up, but she’ll just look at me a little dazed and then fall right back to sleep,” Laura said. “I really hope she’ll see the photos and videos in the future and have a good laugh. Hopefully she’ll see how loved she was.”
Laura says she hopes her photos inspire parents not to lose their sense of humour. “I hope that these photos and videos will make people smile and also remind parents to have fun with their kids and not get too caught up in the seriousness of parenting.”
Hey babygirl, let me take a pik at chu. #pokemon
