A Boy and his Thumb.

I was working on some pictures tonight and had to post this one. 


Photobucket

This is a classic look we get from Maxwell. Thumb in mouth with blanket, usually covering his hand under his nose. Max didn't even suck his thumb as a baby, he took a binkie. We took his binkie away shortly after he turned one. No problems what so ever. Well 6 months later, thanks to our lovely daughter who loves to play house and has multiple babies...had a real binkie she used for "her babies", left one laying around and guess who found it. Yep Max, and he started sucking on it. Well I quickly threw it away and then a little bit later he started sucking on his thumb a little bit here and there. As the weeks went on I noticed it was more frequent and not just when he was sleepy. Now he sucks his thumb all the time. I've tried putting the yucky stuff for nail biting and he just sucks it off. So now I don't know what to do with him. He has old man thumb syndrome, it's all wrinkly. So at least I have a picture to remember this phase, which I hope doesn't last forever. Any suggestions out there????? I'm open to many.

Finally a day without rain!

It's been raining here for almost the whole month of June.  So on Friday when there was a break in the clouds we headed outside.  One good thing about all this rain is it makes everything so green and beautiful.

An Amazing Day with Jessica Kettle

Part 2

I mainly wanted to learn how to shoot in different lighting.  Shooting in the sun can be very challenging.  But we did it.  And I think they turned out gorgeous.  Thanks Jessica for a very amazing evening.
