He sits still, doesn't mind having his pic taken. He wants to have good close ups like his little bro and sis. He worked it well this day. Good Friday.
This kid has the most placid nature. As a baby I never had to put the side of the cot up. He would wake up and play and goo and gah until I came in to get him. To raise a voice in anger to him is enough to have those big eyes pool with tears. Don't tell him I told you. I don't even think he realises that I notice. He is so easy going that he doesn't worry about the fact that the $200 sports shoes bought for him at the beginning of the year went missing at school, to name one of many things. Hence the wrath of his mother.
Lots of sayings we use around this household come from Jayden's vocabulary as a baby. My favourites are...
"I dot a prize a you..." = I've got a surprise for you.
"I dot do wees" = I've got to do wees.
"Meck me" = Excuse me.
"I all fooful" = I'm all beautiful (whilst rubbing talcum powder onto his belly).
Makes me want to wrap him in my arms and nuzzle him! 'Cept now he is about 4 inches taller than me and talks in a VERY deep voice. Sometimes I think Brad is home or there is a strange man somewhere in the house.
He is so very HANDSOME. Those are very beautiful photos of him. The colors are stunning! You sure are working that camera girl!!

Lovely! My boy (2.5) is the same... so placid and easy going, he too hates when I yell. I try not to. But my 4 year old needs it lol...
Hoping that my little man grow up to be just as spunky as yours. Great shots of him!

Lynette you have such a handsome young man! The pictures are wonderful, I need you to come take some of Mandi for me, and bring him along, he could teach her a thing or two about sitting nice for her mom! LOL
Happy Easter!

What a cutie! I mean hottie. Or whatever it is that he would prefer to be called (but not by a 45 year old woman.) I like photo 2 and 3. I like the way it blurs out on his shirt in 2 and I like his expression in 3. Look out girls!

Lynette you have such a handsome young man there. He does look like his Dad a lot. I like #3 and number #2. So are the girls already calling for him? I'm sure they are. If not it will happen very soon. I'm glad he sat still for a photo shoot for him Mom. What an all around fabulous young man you have.
I hope you had a wonderful Easter.

Well Janette, I thought so too up until yesterday when he told me I don't do anything for him. Hmmmph! My response is to boycott him then let him see just how much I DON'T do for him!
Turd! I mean TEENAGER! Well, not quite. In another month he will be. You probably know this already but the world revolves around teenagers you know...

Great shots of your 'not so little' man Lynette .... and how cute are those sayings.
Wish my kiddo's would sit still long enough for some decent shots - they're like little tornados at the moment.
HAPPY EASTER to you all
