The Grandma Show

It's always been important to me that Will spends time with us in the kitchen. It was such a big part of my childhood, from learning with my Granny to playing diner with my sisters during the summer, trying to turn leftovers into a new "gourmet" meal. I've been very pleased at how much Will likes to help me or Gus in the kitchen, and I hope it turns into a lifetime love for him.

The other day, I turned on the Food Network, mostly just for some background noise. Paula Deen was on. After a few minutes, Will stopped playing and sat down to watch. He asked me about the food she was making and if we could "play cooking show." Almost every day since, Will has asked to watch the "Grandma show" and then asked what we could cook.

I shared this story with my mom and Gram came through with a surprise for Will. His very own apron and cooking utensils. This is us breaking them in for our weekly homemade pizza night.

We are a little late with our 2 month post. We're just having so much fun!

 

Luke's measurements were all in the 75th percentile: 13 lbs, 7 oz, 23 inches. He's a BIG boy!

Summer Portraits--Luke

Luke's photos from our session with Candy. She's got some talent. 

Summer Portraits--Will

Here are some more fabulous pictures taken by my friend, Candy. Hit her up today, and tell her I sent you. She's a Dawg fan, but we don't hold it against her. :-)

Summer Portraits--Family

My very dear friend and mommy muse, Candy Hanson, dropped by to take some family pictures. 

Candy is about to start her own photography business, and if you are local, I urge you to have her take any family photos, head shots, portraits, etc, that you may need. 

Until her website is set up, visit her blog, Hanson Party of Five. You'll see that as a mom of three, she's amazing with kids and makes them feel very comfortable, which make for the best pictures.
