What happened today ( Eastons 5 month shoots)

Happy 5 Months son! We love you so much!!!

Have you ever sat back and thought to yourself, wow my child is just perfect in every way possible. Of course you have, as parents we all do it. Today Easton is 5 months old and it seems like he has been in my life for so much longer than that! I got him ready this morning and played with him, he is always laughing, always making me smile. We picked out his outfit and put on Yo Gabba Gabba, you should see this little boy when this show comes on. It's like he suddenly doesn't have time for you anymore. He gets so excited and is glued to the television.

We chose his outfit, his brand new Levi's which are 3T's by the way because nothing else will fit his stomach and THUNDER thighs lol. We chose his new shirt and hit Pumas to go with them. He is wearing size 12 month shirts at the smallest now. I have to be honest, I have a Guess shirt that I love so much that I still put on him sometimes, it's 3-6 months. I know I need to let the shirt go and put it in my chest for my next baby, but no one will ever wear it like Easton does. We spiked his hair, well originally we did a Mohawk, but his hair is so long it doesn't last long.

We drove out to Hurricane, met with the photographer and started shooting. Easton was perfectly behaved, happy, and photogenic the whole time. He is always like this for us, it hasn't changed and I don't think it will. I was watching him during the shoot and couldn't help but to MELT... He is so perfect in every way and I am so proud of my handsome son. His dad was thinking the same thing, I know because I know Jared and his looks. Jared was looking at Easton like he does when the Cowboys score a touchdown. Priceless day..

We left the shoot and went straight to another location so mommy could take some 5 month photo's of her own. I was having so much fun, they turned out so cute. He was tired and did not want to look at the camera,  it was so funny. He literally would not look at us no matter how hard we tried. I know that's his way of telling mommy he was done taking pictures for the day so we left. The pictures on the bench at the park I took, the ones with Easton on my lap in the room and shirtless were taken by Dave Whitty Photography. I had so much fun today, just thought I would share the experience.

Easton took a great nap before all this happened, then we came home and he was a little tired. He fell asleep on my lap while I was designing some shirts and I didn't even know he was sleeping until he started making is sweet little sleeping noises (cutest noise ever). So I am sitting here thinking, am I lucky or what!? I go to lay him down and he opens one eye and sees that I am not by him and flips out haha. Think again Chantal, you can't have a perfect baby all the time. So he stayed up until about 11PM, let me explain why...

He is so smart, he will fall asleep while I am laying by him. He puts an arm or leg on me before he falls asleep so he will know if I get up, I have to be sneaky. He use to be so good at going to bed on time and being a schedule baby, but the last week has been crazy. His schedule has been interrupted so now we are back at square one, trying to schedule him again. When he falls sleep eating, I will take him off me and he will be asleep reaching for me haha. It's just habit I guess, but it's the funniest thing to watch!

Poor little man is teething also and it's not pretty, so that's where I stand right now. I have a beautiful, handsome, smart, funny, manipulating and smart baby who wont sleep. He is up again, so I will end this post.

Love Chantal
Stay beautiful
