A little project...

I've started a monthly project for myself. It involves taking photos of Callen and adding montly milestones to the photo using Photoshop. At the end of his first year I'll get these photos printed in a book as a keepsake. I saw this somewhere on Pinterest and, so far, have been able to keep up with the task. Over the past week I've been compiling the milestones...and I have to say it would be a lot easier to do them right away (DUH!). I hope to keep up with this as a visual baby book for him to look at later in life.

Here are his first three photos...

Callen is three months old!

My little guy is three months old today! I can't believe he's getting so big. I love seeing his little personality develop. Callen is such a smiley, happy baby it's difficult to do anything but smile when I look at him. Even in the midst of his first double-ear infection this week he was smiling. This was not the case last Sunday night though when he was inconsolable for several hours in the middle of the night. But he's doing much better now as the ear infection and cold/cough don't seem to be bothering him any more.

What's even more surprising than Callen turning three months old today is the fact that I was able to take his three month photos TODAY too. He was quite cooperative after being woken from his nap, stripped, changed and manipulated for various shots. Like I said...happy baby. So I thought I'd share a few images from our shoot.

Such a sweetie.

Checking out a book.

Big sister Landen joined for a few...seconds.

The favorite. This one captures his personality perfectly!

No, his hair is not red. I think it's just the lighting. He's actually keeping his dark hair for now, so we'll have to wait and see if that changes as he grows.
