Grayden tried to crack them with his teeth, multiple times. After being told that doesn’t work out so well. Hmm. He’s nothing like his Dad, nothing at all…

Busytown is one of his current favorites. It’s no longer a challenge to find Goldbug :)

Someone was super excited about “the paper.” Seamless paper is a very new addition to this household and today was our inaugural usage. You loved helping me figure out how to set up the background stand and spent 10 minutes trying to set up the camera tripod for me while I was working on other

I’ve been trying to give this guy some extra snuggles the past few days. He’s been soaking them up.

Back in September, this little guy cried through his swimming lesson. Not anymore!

Succulent 2 ways… I’m going to have to read up a bit on how not to kill a cactus…

Just a little game of peek before bath-time. It was all fun and games until they decided there was a shadow monster in the room. Silly kids.

This was his sole request from Santa this year (until the last few days before Christmas when he told me he was starting to get worried… really worried… that Santa wouldn’t be bringing house legos and police legos since he hadn’t asked for them in his letter….) and over a week later, it’s still a

We went on a tour of the Jelly Belly factory today. Good tour, not so good lunch. The boys were thrilled with their free baggy of jelly beans, though!

The photography community, and the world at large, lost a beautiful women recently. Jen Burgess Thompson passed away from cancer this past week and will be missed. As a tribute, the women of the CM Daily Project decided to take pictures with our kiddos and post them. Jen was a big advocate of being in pictures
