Photos by Bentley

Occasionally I get distracted while taking pictures of the boys and leave my camera where a little boy might be able to reach it. If he is in his toy corner being very very quite, I know he has something he isn't supposed to have (usually my cell phone). Recently I found him with my camera, lens cap off, power on, and several pictures taken. How do they know how to work these things? He almost always calls my mom when he gets my cell phone, or sends my sister a text message. Anyway, I thought I would post a couple of his pictures.

3 Months



Time is flying by even faster the second time around. I'm slightly behind on the 3 month post, but these pictures were taken 10 days ago, when he turned 3 months. At 3 months:
  • 15 lb. 11 oz. (need to measure length)
  • wearing 6 month clothes and size 3 diapers
  • still sleeping great, but also still swaddled at night
  • smiling and laughing more and more every day (but very hard to catch on camera)
  • trying to put everything in his mouth
  • still not taking a bottle, but taking a pacifier sometimes (which I've decided to stop offering because I'm still trying to figure out how to get rid of Bentley's)
  • finally enjoying a little bit of tummy time and lifting his chest up off the floor
  • had to get 2 shots, but only cried for a second
  • looking more and more like his mommy

This is how we have to get pictures of him smiling or laughing. If he sees the camera he just stares at it and will not smile for anything. He loves it when I play with his feet or Paul makes funny noises at him.

Recap

Paul and Bentley went to see Toy Story 3 today. I didn't get to watch because it was very loud and Chance was not happy about it. Paul said he did very well and just sat and watched.

Apparently there was a monkey who was not a good monkey. Bentley likes monkeys so I think it bothered him a little. This is what he told me about the movie: "Ooh ooh ah ah taped up dog." Translated to: The monkey was taped up by the dog. He talked about it for a good 30 minutes, and also demonstrated how the toy monkey clapped his symbols together while saying ooh ooh ah ah.

Chance is 3 months old now. Three month pictures and post coming soon.

Impromptu Photo Shoot


Neither boy was being very cooperative so this is the only good picture I got.
