Memorial Day Weekend

We have had a super low key weekend, just hanging out.
There were weddings, and picnics, and precious time spent with family and friends.
There were also crazy hair moments and diaper blowouts from my little so intense my foot was on the receiving end of the spillage.

The weather was too perfect to eat inside, so we picnicked on the patio.
Here it was a spoon. Today, it was this travel size baby lotion.
I warn you - do not try to take aforementioned object away from subject without earplugs.
Screaming will ensue.
Yes, even over a baby pink bottle of lotion.

Shaking my head, Baker Bell.
Shaking my head.

Seafood!!
 



He looks three here.
STOP GROWING!
He is losing the baby pudge and getting longer and leaner.
Some 18 month outfits are getting too short.
Sniff. Sniff.



And was clearly NOT having ANY part of Memorial Day pictures.
Since he was sick, I cannot be more than 2.375 inches from Baker. 
Going to the bathroom is no longer a private affair,
and showering, well, don't get too close.
And you can forget sitting him down in the grass and walking away with the camera. 
Melt. Down. Cen. Tral.







They're so pitiful, they're precious. 
I cannot help but smile at that pout-pout face.

The hair is getting even more uncontrollable.
There's no taming it.
And to be honest, I have no desire.
I sort of love the crazy baby hair.
 
And now for a little playtime in the pool and then off to shoot Baker's one year pictures with the fabulous Amber Ruffin of Amber's Photography!

I am so thankful for the sacrifices of so many that I could enjoy this long weekend with the ones I love.
