Crazy Chicago Weather

It's been crazy warm here in Chicago this past couple of weeks. So today, I took a special little trip to the park with my munchkin. Wedding and portrait season is starting up soon and I am going to be insanely busy so I thought we could get a little quality time AND I could combine it with a little portrait practice. I've got a lot of portraits coming up in the next couple of months!

I know every mom thinks her kid is the cutest kid around, but truly, I think Max is the best. I mean, look at the pose.


Come on mom, let's go to the park!!

Trying to negotiate a step. I'm thinking this position is not going to work

This is the smile that he gives me every time I tell him "no"

...or this....

At the park, charming the lady next to us on the swings...

Apparently wood chips taste great. As do huge handfuls of sand.

Bye mom, I'm going home

Here's what he looked like on the way home
