Well we had some portraits made today. He is 6 1/2 weeks old. My how time flies. His personality was really showing thru during the photo session and his photos are so expressive. So I hope you enjoy some of my darling mans photos.





Now I love his little feet and hands and the photos on his tummy. He loved being on his tummy and kept pushing with his feet and almost pushing himself over or on his face but he just kept trying. Seemed to have an attitude of I know that if I just keep trying I will be able to move from here. LOL
I just love my little man.
