Christmas picture preview

Oh and here is a hair picture! What do you think? Yesterday my friends took me out to my favorite Chinese restaurant for an early birthday dinner. Then we came back here and Jenny brought me delicious cupcakes, Heather brought wine, and Ken made my favorite amaretto sours with his homemade simple syrup and fresh squeezed lemon juice. I might have had one. Or three :) Thank you everyone!

And today the Bud is 8 months old! I didn't get any good pictures of him today though so I'll do his 8 month post tomorrow. I did get their professional pictures back though, and as always, was extremely happy with them!

Ken doesn't understand why I have to get a naked picture, so here's the reason:

It is the cutest thing I've EVER seen! :) I got one of Madeleine at 3 months, and tried to get one of John Paul at 3 months too so they'd match, but he wasn't cooperating. So we tried again at this photo session and I was thrilled. Don't think I won't be putting an 8 x 10 in my bathroom. Cause I will.


I kind of lumped his 6 month (which was really 7 month) pictures together with Christmas pictures, so here's one of the two good ones of the two of them together. She was really good and tried to hold him while he tried to crawl straight off the table. I had to actually catch him a few times.
And this is my very favorite. It was totally worth it staying up till 1am the night before to finish his hat!

Merry Christmas!
