Kelly Lombardo Photography

In just a few short weeks our little Peanut will be 2 years old.

It seems like just yesterday we were discussing bladder control during my pregnancy and 
I was having total meltdowns from lack of sleep.

Oh wait a minute, I'm still having total meltdowns from lack of sleep!
Remind me when I get to sleep again?

My dear friend and awesome photographer, Kelly Lombardo took Peanut's picture to commemorate his 2nd birthday.  We met at Central Park in Huntington Beach and walked around while she took pictures.

Of course, he was uncharacteristically sober-faced that day.

Seriously.

He would smile facing a different direction and 
would completely ignore us horsing around to get him to smile.

Even as an infant he was truly fantastic at ignoring me.

You see that look?

That look means, "I found some dirt and I'm going to make a big mess".

That look means, "I think I'm doing something I'm not supposed to be doing".

I see this look a million times a day.

I love these pictures.

I can hardly believe how grown up he looks.

I can hardly believe he's mine.

In this one he is yelling at me to pull faster.

I do hope he picks up some of daddy's patience in the future.
I don't have any to spare. :)

This kid is definitely a thinker.

You must check out Kelly's website at klycphoto.com.
She does awesome children, maternity, family, couple and boudoir photography.

It's the perfect time to take family pictures for those Christmas cards
 or boudoir pictures as a Christmas present!

That smile.
It kills me every time.

  3. So big!! Its scary! I go through that with Jake all the time. he keeps talking about when he's bigger..."When I'm bigger, I can use the stove and daddy can't put his iPad on it" etc. I need him to stop. He still tells me I'm his best friend and I can't imagine the heartbreak when I'm not. These little boys are so NO-STOP but so sweet too. I don't want that to end!
