Long time no see (teaser pics from Parker's 12 month shoot included)

So it's clearly been a long time since we've had a Parker post.  I promise to have his 12 month/first birthday party post up soon. In the meantime, here's a cute little teaser from his 12 month photo shoot.

A little backstory - our photographer has her studio in the East Village of downtown Des Moines, which with the older buildings, provide for some fun outside backdrops.  We thought it would be fun to take Parker outside for a few shots and at one point, he was on a step all by himself (such a big boy!).  Of course, being a curious boy, he thought he needed to check out the rocks and decided one of them would be tasty to try.  Needless to say, after we all lunged for the rock before he could swallow it, an immediate meltdown followed.  Yes, I am aware that he'll probably have worse in his mouth at some point, but I prefer to pretend it won't happen ;)

Yay, what a happy family!


Oh look, a rock.
No caption necessary - meltdown complete.
