New Superman Henry

It started with Cory, but the whole family is inundated with it now.

Superheroes.

Their little boy, Jack, knows all the names. Has all the action figures. Has clothes to match.

So when new baby Henry was born, I knew he needed to take up his proper place in the family.

I present Clark "Henry" Kent and......

Super "Henry"



I'm so happy to meet this little boy. He's going to fit in perfectly!

Crib Transition

I remember the days when I'd listen for Jackson to cry from his crib. I'd go and unswaddle him and get him up.

Then came the days when he'd unwrap himself by pushing his arms and kicking his feet.

Next came the days of turning to his stomach and getting up on all fours.

Gone are those days. I've taken down the mobile. Because now, even after just one peep from this little one, I find this instead.

But oh, how I love those smiles he shares when I walk in the room!

Jackson

Usually I think that Jackson is still just my little baby. Today I looked over at him as he was using a box to stand up that he really is getting so big. 8 months. Everyone says it goes by so quickly, and it really does. I've enjoyed it all, though...except that one phase where putting him to down for a nap was an ABSOLUTE PAIN!

I figured Jackson would be an early walker since he has always loved being on his feet. When I would go to burp him over my shoulder, he wouldn't just lay against me, he'd push on his feet to stand instead. Later he would just enjoy standing on our laps. Then he would rock back and forth while standing on our laps. We'd call him our little sumo wrestler. "Finally", at 7 1/2 months, he decided to take off. Fairly unsteady at first, only making it a couple of feet, but now he moves so well. He turns and pivots. When he falls down he has figured out how to catch himself so he doesn't bang his head/face on the floor.



I'm trying hard to keep up.

I've played around at Gardner Village, but never officially taken pictures there. I like it. I like it a lot.

Anyway, this is my brother and his wife. Their youngest daughter was born a month before Jackson. My mom has wanted a current family photo of them since then. They only come to visit every so often, so we worked hard to plan some time to take new pictures. So glad it worked out. This was one of those sessions where we got exactly what we wanted in just a little bit of time. Love when that happens!

Jackson's New Teeth

Jackson got teeth last week. After MONTHS of putting things in his mouth and chewing on everything, they are finally here. My little boy is growing up.

And here are some more just because he's so cute!

This is his Michael Jordan look.

Tiffanie

Tiffanie is Jeremy's niece. Well, that makes her my niece too by marriage. It still seems weird to call these them nieces and nephews when they were around long before I came into the Knowlden picture. Anyway, back to Tiffanie.

She is a senior this year. She knows what she wants.

She wants to have fun.

She wants to look vintage.

She wants to play her music.

She wants to be western.

She wants to rock the big belt buckle. And she does.

And she wants to remember all of that about her senior year.

Temple Photos Market?

Someone suggested to me that I could sell images of the temple that I have photographed on etsy. I'm not an "etsy person." I don't know how things like that really work. I don't know if there's a market out there for these photos.  Could I sell just the file and the customer could print it themselves? How do you ensure copyright after something like that?

I'm not asking if you would buy my photos, I'm asking what you know about this stuff. Extra cash flow earned for doing something I love could always be nice. :)
