Too Cool for School

Our little buddy is one month tomorrow! And as you can expect, I CANNOT believe he's been around for an entire month. He's gone from teeny helpless thing that does nothing but eat and sleep to being a fun little guy with an awesome personality. We've been out and about running errands to Target and the mall, taking walks in our neighborhood and watching Saved by the Bell re-runs during our 7:30 am feeding. Life is good.

So in honor of back to school September, our little buddy put his thinking cap on for his one month photo shoot.  Please to enjoy.


I die. Over and over again.
And here are some mucho hilarious outtakes.





I know, I know. Awesomest kid ever. And I'm going to try really hard not to post pictures of him every day. That's gonna get boring real quick.  Wish me luck.

Oh! And lest I forget...the lovely Mrs. Kinne from The Unstoppable Mrs. Kinne thought I deserved this award. Isn't that nice of her? She thinks I'm versatile! And she's right. I am totally versatile :)

So here's the deal:

The Award Rules



1. Thank the person who gave you this award.
Thannnnnk you Mrsssss. Kinne (Mrs. Kinne's a teacher so that's my elementary school kid voice)


2. Share seven things about yourself.

1 - When I was little I wanted to be a UPS man -- I think it was the truck with the full size door.

2 - I think kids should pay their own way through college, it makes em appreciate it more I think.

3 - I get very anxious before going to new places, whether it's a store, restaurant or vacation destination.  I get what my friends and I have termed "the nervous burps".

4 - Long toenails skeeve me. As do french manicures on toes. Double skeeve because toenails have to be long enough to achieve that look.

5 - I really enjoy all things concerning laundry, the warm clothes out of the dryer, the smell, the folding and the ironing. It relaxes me. However, things like spa days and massages put me on-edge and I want to head for the hills.

6 - I have a million ideas for small businesses I think I should run. I need to pick one and go with it. For reals.

7 - I am the laziest person ever when it comes to my hair. I get it cut about twice a year because I like to avoid the small talk you have to have with stylists. So my hair suffers the consequences....I can never dye, highlight or style it because I won't maintain it. I'll have dead ends for months. I just tell myself I'm saving money. I apparently like lying to myself.

3. Pass the award along to 5 bloggers who you've recently discovered and think are awesome (and be sure to let them know).

AH! I think I just died from an overdose of hilarity + cuteness!

Truly amazing photoshoot. Gabe is the raddest baby I have ever seen! Which has led me to this...is there any way that when I'm prepared for motherhood, you could just crank out a baby for me? You've clearly got fantastic baby making genes, and I fear mine won't be nearly as cute or as personable. :)

Kidding, kidding. But I am loving your motherhood posts. It gives me hope that having a baby doesn't mean you have to lose yourself. Keep 'em coming. (The posts, that is. And maybe more babies, too, if they're as adorable as Gabe.) :)

P.S. I loved this so much I posted the link on my facebook. Hope that's not too creepy...

Danielle and Clint said...

OMG! What a little trooper! He is very awesome! I love the expressions in the out take. I think one of them, he messed his diaper!

Mrs. Adventure said...

Too freaking cute... I say keep the photos coming :+)

He definitely makes me crave a little one! =)

Mandy said...

Oh.my.goodness. that is so stinking cute!! That has put a permanent smile on my face for the day. :) And thanks so much for the award!

Becky said...

OMG awesome!!!!!!!!!

Jackie said...

Are. you. kidding. me????? This is by far the cutest idea I have ever seen. How do you do it girl? When I had a one month old my brain was pure mush and I had no creativity flowing in my brain. It was lucky if either me or my baby even got dressed for the day. Major kudos to you my friend.

Katie said...

I already expressed my love of this photo. Gabe 4 Prez in 2060!

Isrut said...

too cute!!! happy 1 month!

SarahK said...

I think I keep leaving the same comment- "awesomeest. baby. pics. and. baby."

I'm nothing if not creative.

Jennifurla said...

OMG - the last 2 are super awesome! Glad you are doing well.

Jenn from Much to My Delight said...

I'm awe-struck from the cuteness overload. Big glasses on a tiny baby will never not be adorable. And the whole time I was reading the facts about you, I was thinking how I basically could have written them myself. And big thanks for the shout-out!! You are the greatness.

Amanda said...

I think the other ladies did a great job summarizing what I'm thinking.

The picture of Gabe sitting with his mouth in a little "O"? I died.

Way too cute.

P.S. Bethany and I are friends in the real world and she did post the link on Facebook--she also dies over that little guy.

(Am I getting a little too "Rachel Zoe for you with the "dies"? I hope not.)

Homevalley said...

DUDE. Awesome. I need to get more creative.

Jenn from Much to My Delight said...

PS: Have you seen milasdaydreams.blogspot.com? If you haven't, you MUST.

MrsKinne said...

Well, my versatile friend, that is pretty much the cutest baby ever. The nerd glasses kill me.

Koos said...

I love the pictures! Great idea.

Abby said...

Most creative monthly baby photos I have seen yet! Love it!

Project Shannon said...

Yea! Thanks for the award! I adore the pictures - the back to school theme is great!

Now that I'm back and online, I will have to answer the questions for myself!

Kristen @ Miss Prissy Paige said...

I love the photoshoot - the glasses with the tape are so freakin cute!

He really is adorable.

Christen said...

Hee hee!! SO cute!!

Kim @ NewlyWoodwards said...

Dear, Lord. That little one with glasses makes my loins ache for one. Bad idea. So, can you add some photos of him getting his diaper changed or just acting bad? That woudl really help the family planning. ;)

Love him.

alissa said...

Kristen {a little ditty} said...
