The last time I got a "SO Jake" picture, it was 2 months ago. I'm constantly in search of the perfect picture of him. You would think with the "talent" I have with photos, I would be able to do this more often. But it's SO hard to get a picture of him to look the way I see him through my eyes. (Mamas, I know that makes sense to you.) It doesn't help that Jake's always busy doing something else, and when he does notice the camera I get a cheese face (which I love, too, but I want that beautiful, REAL smile. And this isn't a FULL smile, but it's the sweet look in the eyes that gets me.) For me, this picture is IT. It probably just looks like one more picture to you, but I absolutely love it. *sigh* I love my buddy.
I agree, Jen...this is absolutely breath-taking adorable picture of your darling son! I can't blame you for being a "proud mama".
P.S. Get some decent rest tonight!

I just love and adore that little boy of yours Jen! I really mean that. What a PERFECT JAKE PICTURE!! I know what you mean about the pic thing, thats why I take hundreds of pics a month it seems, always looking for the "perfect Austin or Nathan pic"
Love you

I've yet to see a bad picture of the boy but yeah, those eyes. I know exactly what you mean. Especially at this age. The minute I point a camera at Elle, the little diva puts her hand up and says "no pictures!" Who does she think she is anyway? lol

Those eyes draw you right in! He is such a doll baby!! I know exactly what you mean about capturing our babies. I have so many "favorite" photos of my 3 girls!!
