During Caden's first year of life, we took pictures of him at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and one year. We decided to do the same thing for Asher (we already have the frame, after all!). My sweet friend, Courtney, usually takes the boys' pictures, but I didn't want to bother her every three months, so I dragged him down to Kiddie Kandids. I thought it was going to be an easy shoot - Asher is the sweetest, smiliest, easiest going little guy I have EVER met. WRONG! Let's just say we can NEVER go there again! Asher was sleepy, which caused him to be ca-rank-ee (if you're in a really bad mood, cranky has 3 syllables. Trust me.). Plus, he spit up 4 times. Projectile spit up. 4 times. On his clothes, me, and their blanket. 4 times (did I mention that part?). I just laughed, because what else are you going to do? I kept telling the photographer that my sweet Asher is usually the happiest guy on the block and has the greatest smile. I'm not sure she believed me! I felt so bad that she (who, incidentally, was about 12, had worked their 3 weeks, and our shoot was her first time being alone in the store. Super.) had spent so much time with us that I had to buy something. So I searched and found a picture that will do. It's not his best work - he's not smiling, but he has a pleasant, sweet look. After all of that, I'll take it!
She also managed to get a cute picture of his little toesies. I just thought this was darling!
For a comparison, here are both boys' 3 month pictures. That is Caden on top and Asher on the bottom.
I forgive you sweet Asher! Who needs Kiddie Kandids anyway?!? Everyone who loves you will always remember that at three months old you had a smile to die for.
Next time, we'll call Courtney instead!
