I just can’t get enough of this hat that frames his face and pops those eyes.  Simply adorable.

And my baby has a pearl, an Epstein Pearl.  Do you see it on his gums?  He’s had it for over a month that I’ve noticed and it should just go away soon.   I had never heard of them before.

And Jack was getting  antsy that I wasn’t paying him any attention, and kept getting in my face.  What can I say, he use to be the target of my camera.

Ashley Thalman Photo - What a little doll! His face is so perfect!

Brothers

I’m loving the interaction between them.  Especially the time we were on grandma’s trampoline, and Jack tripped and fell on which caused Scott to bust up laughing.  I love that Jack kisses him, right on the lips. I love how Scott just quietly watches Jack.  I love that they will always remember just having each other around.

Michelle - I love the picture of your 3 guys together :)

Cousins

I love watching cousins interact.  I smile to see them during imaginative play.  And I love that age doesn’t matter, like seeing grown up cousins cuddle baby cousins.   I don’t think they knew I was watching and wishing.  And realizing our time together is more special because it’s now scarce.

Saren - I know you hear this a ll the time but you are so talented! Beautiful pictures. :)

Holly - Amazing pictures. You are just so talented and have a way of capturing the moment. Thanks for sharing! Love you and miss you too!

Bridget - It's hard to describe how much I love this post! I love our family so much! That picture of Brittany and Scott is so so precious. I love how much fun Jack and Tagg had together, and I can't wait for them to be able to play again, I love seeing them love each other! And Jack was so fearless on the slip n' slide, I can't wait to do that again too!... and fireworks together. Goodness I love the 4th! The pic of us and 'lil Roo is so special to us. Thank you! Love you! Miss you!

And what breaks my heart is this boy’s special blanket became lost after our photo session.  It was lovingly made by his grandparents and arrived to swaddle his newborn body.bw_mg_2531b

Another favorite of mine: mother- son moments.

And I love how he’s standing here.  Such a little boy!

Heather - We just love these! Thanks for the blanket picture, too. Even though I'm still sad it's gone, this is a great way to remember!
