Never Before Seen Photos

The title sounds like a tabloid headline... but I assure you, these pictures are not scandalous. =) I just happened to come across these pretty random photos when I was looking back through the pics on my camera and decided I wanted to share. They didn't really fit into a blog post but they are funny and/or precious so therefore blog worthy.

This was the 2nd picture my mom took of us on Sunday after church... right before bribing Garrison with a quarter. Isn't this just how it goes? For every semi-perfect (cause I'm not sure perfect even exists) family photo you have at least 5 of these. Gracious.

 

One of Austin's favorite things to do in his room is empty his entire basket of books and "read". So precious. These pictures were taken before Christmas one night before bath time. He just had to get in a little reading first.

 

Then it was time to survey the damage... baby boy knows that messes must be put away...

 

Possibly the same night before Christmas but after bath time, my big boy requested daddy take his picture in his lion towel. Love that handsome boy and his adorable smile.

At Covington's Christmas parade Terrell and I were taking turns making pictures of each other and the boys before the parade started when a nice, older man offered to make a picture of all of us. Austin almost didn't make it in. Oh well. It was really bright and sunny that morning. Ha!

This is one of the outtakes of the "cousin" pictures on Christmas Eve, Eve. It's the tale of 4 cousins...all expressing slightly different emotions. Too funny.

A couple of weeks ago I let the boys, both boys, play with ice. Garrison loved doing this from the time he was almost 2 until Austin became a mobile baby and we neglected it for a while. But for some reason I gave in and tried it out recently. It didn't go terrible but it also didn't last long. The floor was getting pretty wet and so was Austin. And I definitely didn't want to relive this episode so we cleaned up quick-like. We'll try it again in a couple months.

A few nights ago Austin experienced his first ever bubble bath! Since the boys started taking a bath together 2-3 months ago we put away the bubbles until the other night. Austin wasn't impressed. Once the bubbles started growing he decided to stand up for his entire bath. At least he was still happy! Although his bath was pretty short that night. He never could relax and play and enjoy himself with those strange bubbles in his water.  

 

And that's a wrap on Never Before Seen Photos. =)
