7 month and 2 year pictures

We are finding out that your first child is so different from the ones that follow. You take pictures of your first child constantly and video EVERYTHING. We have a five minute video we took of Eli when he was a baby doing nothing more than hiccuping. Marc says that we used to come home from work and just sit and stare at Eli when he was a baby. Ha! Well, life it a little busier now that he is a toddler. Hailey is great and goes right along with everything, but we often feel like we have not documented her first year as well as we would have liked.. We took Eli to get pictures made at 0, 3, 6, and 9 months. Up until this past weekend we just had Hailey's newborn pictures. But, we finally made it out of the house to a portrait place down the street. You never know how these pictures are going to turn out (especially when the guy taking the pictures scares your child to death and then says, "Kids just don't like me.") but I think we got a few keepers out of the batch. A big thanks to Aunt Jamie for Hailey's dress and Aunt Stacey for Eli's shirt and shorts! You guys matched an outfit for them and didn't even know it. :)

I didn't buy this one because it wasn't cropped in the store but it looked so cute once I got home and edited it on the computer. :)

Eli loves putting his hands in his pockets like his daddy.

I think those are some beautiful babies.
