I took a photo of August sitting in the Eames rocker and wearing his pin each month until he turned two years old. I also took monthly photos of his older sister, Eleanor, until she was two.
And just like that, nearly four years of monthly photos of my babies are done. Like Eleanor, August will now have a yearly photo. I’ll also create a book for him, as I did for his older sister.
Two years old! Happy birthday, my little man. I love you, I love you, I love you.

February 8, 2013 at 3:42 pmWhat a beautiful idea. Wish my sons weren’t all grown up. We did take first day of school picture in front of the same front door for 18 years. I love the changes in this pictures. Your idea is a great one.
