Knuckles' Family Pictures

As I mentioned in my last post, we had family pictures taken last month with Trent's parents.  It was actually December 17, Aiden's 1 month :)  Next week he's going to be 2 months.  I can't believe it!

Just getting Aiden's hair ready ;)





Aiden slept the whole time we were outside.



Aiden and Grandma Tanis.




Love this one of Trent and I.  Kind of wish Aiden was in it.



The Knuckles family, including Sam.





Love this picture of Aiden and his grandparents.



We went inside and Aiden woke up.  He's even cute when he cries!


In fact, lots of times Trent and I start laughing when Aiden frowns because he's just too cute - everything about him :)


Angela, the photographer, happened to bring this basket along and offered to take some pictures with Aiden in it. We weren't going to turn that down :)


So sweet :)


Love Aiden all swaddled in this one, plus his expression :)




Haha, Aiden looks funny in this one.  It kind of looks like he was pushing up.



It's amazing how much bigger Aiden got from the shoot at 2 1/2 weeks and this one that was just 2 weeks later!  He's getting bigger by the day.  I'm going to miss having a tiny baby, but I also love that he's getting bigger and interacting with us more and more :)

Newborns

So several weeks back, when Aiden was 2 1/2 weeks, a friend offered to take some pictures of Aiden for free to work on her portfolio. She warned us she wasn't promising anything, but we think she really did a pretty good job :) We definitely wanted to have some nice pictures from his newborn days.

I've been meaning to put these up for awhile.  I know they're from like 5 weeks ago (he's 7 weeks now!), but I definitely still wanted to put some of them up since this is a kind of journal for me.



 




My bangs were at a weird stage (I'm growing them out) so they don't look so good in some of these :/





I really love these next 2 with Trent and Aiden.  Oh I love my boys!


Love the look on Aiden's face.  He makes that face a lot!



My mom and I were laughing so hard when we saw this one! Aiden has some crazy eyes!  What a cutie!



Aiden has really changed since these were taken.  He's definitely filled out some and is getting so cute and chubby :) We had some family pictures taken with Trent's parents the week before Christmas (Aiden was exactly a month old) so I'll also add those within the next few days.

New Year's Eve Fun

For New Year's Eve we went out to Tia Rosa's (a Mexican restaurant down here) with my family for dinner and then to ice cream (Trent and I had a LivingSocial deal that was about to expire). We headed back to my parent's and I provided some fun props for pictures :) I found the template for these fun mustaches here. Definitely made for some good laughs!

So a lot of these pictures look pretty much the same, but watching the progression cracks me up, especially if you watch the placement of Aiden's little mustache.  He's a wiggler..haha.


Whoops, right under his eyes!


Aiden got fussy and needed some comforting. In the meantime Trent and I tried to figure out the best way to get a picture with the 3 of us and our mustaches..ha.



Trent thought he'd try to hold mine so I only had to deal with Aiden's.



Hahaha


So close, but Trent's eyes are closed!


Aiden had had it!


Sisters.


The whole fam. Everyone was in black but Dad and Amber.  Again, watch the progression :)


Aiden was blocked (although he was asleep).


I was totally blocking Trent..ha.


And we did it!  The camera was on timer.


Jen and Jill's are totally crooked..haha.


Tallest to shortest.


I couldn't do the whole serious face. Totally cracking up!


The baby woke up from his nap!


So we tried again!


Such a cute boy!


And perfection!


Sorry if those pictures got boring.  I love them..haha.  Here's wishing you a Happy New Year! It's so weird to think I was pregnant most of 2011 (February through November) and then sweet Aiden came! We just love him and are so excited for what 2012 has in store!
