Time Flies.

We had family pictures taken last October/November for when Brycen turned 6 months old so I figured it would be fun to do the same this year for when Brycen turns 18 months old. We cheated and did it a little early while the weather was SO nice. So technically, Brycen is only 17.5 months old in these pictures ;) And even though the high for this particular day was is the 70s, it being before Day Light Savings ends, it has been getting lighter later and later in the morning and at 9am, we could still see our breath. Slightly chilly but it really wasn't too bad. Brycen was in a terrific mood despite the red nose he wore the entire time.

The bench was broken long before we sat on it. I know what you were thinking! ;)

Brycen enjoys being a pest and knows exactly what we want when we pull out the camera. So he holds out as long as he can and is trying SO hard not to smile. haha.

"UHHH!"He thinks he is already getting too old for kisses.

His little red nose!

LOVE Fall!

LOVE his smile.

I love when he walks between us.

More Fall colors!!

I LOVE this one, even though it kinda looks like Brycen is trying to sneak up on us. haha

It's amazing to see the difference from last year to this year. Last year, he sat and laid in the leaves because he couldn't walk and look at him now!

Even though my face is in a shadow, this is one of my favorites!

My friend, Heidi, did our pictures last year and this year and we love her. She does an amazing job. http://photobyheidi.blogspot.com/

Just for fun, here are some pictures from last year. Despite his stubbornness, it was still SO much easier to get Brycen to smile this year (Heidi's comment) and actually, to get his attention in the first place.

Crazy how one year makes such a difference!

Eating a leaf...

Yup, definitely don't miss that stage!

1.5 teeth (the second JUST came in). He now has 12.

And in other ways, he is just the same:

Still got that same, double chin :)

That little red nose.

Wonderful smile.

Hm...so I guess he hasn't been a fan of the kissing thing for awhile now...

BUT, he did once upon a time.

3 months old, can you believe it?! Crazy how time flies.
