 His favorite spot, looking out the window.

 This is how most of photos went. Trying to get him to sit still and not try to grab the camera or jump off the couch.

Not happy, but sitting still.  It lasted about two seconds before he ripped the sticker off and stuck it in his mouth. Photo shoot over.

 Climbing the stairs. He gets a little nervous at the beginning then scurries all the way to the top.

 We LOVE to brush our teeth!!

 Permanent swinging face. He always has his mouth open.
