he growls for car sounds
one of the only distraction that worked was a big red apple
These three photos were taken within seconds of each other. Posing for photos is no laughing matter.
This is what happened when I took the apple away. And THIS is why I can’t say no to him. Just look at that face!
Max has a special friend. Tommy doesn’t like it when I call it his doll. But it is the one thing he’s absolutely attached to. A $9 IKEA boy doll. He saw it in the store at around 10 months old and started squealing. I let him play with it in the cart, and he wouldn’t stop squeezing it tight. Now it’s his permanent buddy. I can’t decide if the doll looks cute or creepy.
hahahaha….I didn’t realize until just now how much the buggy is sagging to the left. Yeah, I probably shouldn’t have waited until Max was 14 months old to stuff him in here…heck, he was probably too chubby as a newborn.
suckers make great distractions
I found this adorable crown HERE and have been dying to use it with Max for a “little prince” shot. Max wasn’t so sure about it…
I tried several times, and every time it touched his head, he’d start to cry. Apparently I’ve got a spoiled prince on my hands. ;)
Aria! I love Max and so does Suli! she is sitting on my lap and when She saw Max she immediately got excited and pointed to him! It must be true love… or we need a play date soon!
Max & Hazel must be on the same picture wave length. Hazel has a red apple keeping her happy in both of our fall shoots with her. What a cute little man!
Aria, Max is so adorable! I love to look at your pictures just to get a lift to my day. What a sweet boy…..and Sydney too!
these are so sweet, Aria!!!!!! :) They are all fabulous!!!! :)
Oh my goodness. He is so cute! I’ve got a blonde haired, blue eyed Max, too!
Dude, Tommy–your wife lets your son play with dolls and wear tiaras. It’s time for some serious intervention, man.
That crown turned out really adorable. Boy is he handsome! Sydney’s got it right. She will be heart broken when she finds out she can’t marry her favorite brother or daddy. Max is such a fun baby. I can already tell he is going to have a sweet loving personality.
Aria-
Those pictures are sooo cute. I am so jealous of your talent. I wish I could take amazing pictures like that of my son. :)
SO SO adorable! You do beautiful photography;) And I LOVE the images of your family by your friend, I love swapping with my friends, too.
The colours are beautiful! Lovely work :)
