Josiah- One Year

warning:: there is a whole lotta thumb sucking going on in this post.  Get ready.

our self portrait.  I love when he lays on me.. I don't want this to ever stop.

As a photographer it is so hard to stay on top of photographing your own kids sometimes!  To me this is such a sad fact.  I did pretty well the first year and then once I need to take his one year it took awhile to make it happen. In my mind I wanted to be perfect and I had this idea for the this wonderful shoot in my head because well, its my own baby boy.  Yea, when your the photographer and the mom it proves to be a little bit trickier at this age.  Luckily I thought to bring his silkie and monkey (his two favorite things in the world right now) and so it distracted him and allowed him to be content to just sit on the bench at times! Praise the Lord!  

Finally here they are and he did wonderful and we pulled these out in a ten minute session.  He is getting so big and changing it seems like every nap time.  Luckily we have a thing called a camera in life where we can stop him in time to remember his sweetness.
