This little boy will be a heartbreaker one day, that's for sure. Luckily he's already betrothed to Miss Natalie (hey, when you don't have daughters you have to handpick you daughter-in-law carefully to ensure the proper allotment of holiday visits and grandchild time). These little gems were taken by Sandi (My girlfriends think there should be a fun title how this person is related to me, "The Brutha's Mutha" is as close as we've come so far but it's not quite what we want)
So the story goes, that it all started with the hat. My Mom picked that hat up for like $.99 at The Children's Place probably 9 months ago (Campbell girls can't turn down a bargain) and she hatched a plan to get some Kim Anderson style photos of Christian. This little project morphed into a very sweet secret Mother's Day gift. She raided his closet for clothes I had packed away for later, found one of Papa's ties, and roped Sandi in to take the photos. Sandi doesn't normally put her little subjects through such torture, but since she knows Christian so well she figured she'd be forgiven eventually.
Apparently he cooperated pretty well, because these are some of the cutest darn pictures I've ever seen.
And she also managed to capture some of his "looks". Every mom knows what I'm talking about. Those sassy looks you're kids give you, or make when they're happy, frustrated, or surprised. I always forget to get a photo of those looks, and unfortunately they change or disappear over time as they grow up. So now I have photos of a few of his looks I want to remember too.
