Ok, just for one day I'm giving up my "Queen of the World" title and bestowing it on my mom. Why? Because she took these kick-ass pictures of Jake. I am very impressed. I have always enjoyed her pictures and she is really the one who inspired my love of photography, but usually her style of taking photos is drastically different than mine and we always disagree on how to take pictures. But I absolutely love these. When Priscilla saw this first one, she said "Aww, he looks like an all-American boy!"
(And you know I have a scrapbook page of these picture in progress on my dining room table as we speak.) That's my DAD'S baseball hat he's wearing, by the way. Jake's head is HUGE. He just outgrew a hat for sizes 4-8 (kids, not like a toddler sizing. We're talking his head is the size of a third grader.) But I still think he's cute. ;o) As always . . . click on pictures to make them POP.
Gosh darn it, he is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
freakin cute Jen! Way to go MOM!

Gorgeous pics! The scrapbook page in the last post is awesome also. No ideas on what to write though. I'm sure you'll come up with something heartfelt and brilliant when the fancy strikes. :)

Hey Jen!
I loved these pictures! They were adorable! Be sure to say hi to your mom for me. I really missed her at church when I was in Colstrip.

Wow, they really ARE great photos!! No wonder you were thrilled with them. Jake is such a gorgeous little guy. (I'm still catching up on all your new posts, Jen - I've been out of action for the last couple of days). Just wanted to say first though how beautiful Jake is :)

LOL at your comment count in the column! Jen, I have shit luck in life, so even though you say I comment a lot, it won't be me who wins! :) I am NOT the only one who loves you, I am just a total dork, who comments a lot! And one who spends too much time online some days!
Love you
Kelly
