Andrew, 2 years & 3 months

Grandma needed a new picture of Andrew for her grandkid wall, so I made Andrew do a little photoshoot with me in the garage.  What a handsome little man!  I just loved all his little faces - I tried to narrow it down, but just couldn't.  What was memorable about this photoshoot, was that I couldn't get him to stand still in the place I needed him to (about 5 feet in front of the backdrop) - he just kept running around and being silly.  Then I thought I got a genius idea to have him stand in a box, so that he wouldn't get out.  Wrong.  The box became a new toy - he kept sitting in the box, then getting out and in and even trying to crawl inside.  Finally I called for reinforcements (dad) to come help me and get him to stand still and smile, as normally as possible.  The results were worth it, and I think these pictures are a pretty accurate portrayal of my cute little man (even with the disheveled hair and shirt, semi-dirty face with bonks, and pinkish cheeks). 



Funny faces!  The first one is when he says "cheese!" (forced smile) and the second is him telling me, "Noooo, you're the dookie-bye!" (his made up word)

BEHIND THE SCENES - notice the barefoot feet and mismatching pants and THE box that ended up being a terrible idea.  :)
