favorites from denver

I love this latest storyboard for one of my favorite families (the black border is just for posting here on the interwebs). You may remember the little ones from Drew’s newborn session this past fall. He is now five months old and a complete doll. And Leia is the cutest big sister in the world. It’s hard to say who enjoyed blowing bubbles in Drew’s face more–Drew or Leia!

My own doll baby suffered some misfortune while I was taking these pictures. He was at our neighbor’s house, and accidentally got his finger closed in the sliding glass door. It happened to be at just the right angle and just the right amount to amputate his fingertip (I’m not even being melodramatic–our discharge papers actually call it an “amputation”).

We had quite the lengthy ER wait, but he is on his way to recovery now–the specialist seems confident that it should grow back more or less on its own. He is very brave about it, and now that it is a little more protected in a splint I feel a lot better about his “I’m going to jump off furniture cause I’m doped up on pain killers and you feel too sorry for me to yell at me” antics. Were it not for the giant bandage you would never know the kid was injured!
