     So I attempted a small photo session yesterday during the brief window of sunny skies (seriously what a depressing couple of days weather wise ugh!) I had about 15 minutes to work with between the weather, the naked baby in our chilly house, and his need to eat/ poop every hour.  And I had to convince his big sister that Asher can indeed have pictures taken that do not include her.  She's been a little attention hungry lately... 

     It's a good thing I have such an obliging model.  Did I mention he's also ridiculously good looking? I might be a little bit biased since I baked him and all, but objectively speaking I'd say he's pretty darn cute.  Note his overall squishiness, and his goofy little smile :)   All in all, I'm pretty pleased with the results! 

I would have preferred he be naked for these pictures with all his essential parts covered up by the tie, but daddy didn't seem too keen on the idea of a pee soaked tie... plus he wouldn't sit still long enough for that to work.  Did I mention he never EVER sits still?

Emma kept trying to lay in the picture with him, so I moved on to the bumbo and making funny faces at him. 

 Cute. 

Super cute.

Cutest baby ever.

Then this one below this makes me laugh because he looks like he is laying on his side. Hellllloooo ladies! ;)

And then I gave up and let Emma into the pictures.  Asher immediately put his arm around her, caring brother that he is.  She immediately pulled away, three year old that she is. 

And then he gave me this!  To truly appreciate the awesomeness of the picture below please flip back and forth between that and the picture above.  And picture him saying "Whaaaaat???" in an Italian accent.  Why Italian?  I'm not sure, but that's how it sounds in my head.

And that might be our new screensaver.  And I might look at it whenever I feel the need to run away and never come back.  Why is it that kids are somehow magically cuter from behind a camera lens? Maybe it's because you can't hear them? Yup, I'm going with that.
