My Baby is SEVEN | Franklin, Nashville, TN | Documentary and Lifestyle Photographer
You always hear people talking about how they cannot believe their children are so and so age, and you shake your head in agreement, yes, time goes so quickly. But I’m here at my desk looking at a newborn picture of this kid, and I simply cannot believe he’s seven. Seven years old! And well, his birthday was in mid-July, and I’m just a touch behind putting up my collection of pictures from his last trip around the sun.
This kid is pretty darn amazing! He is handsome and funny, mischievous like his PeePaw, sweet and sour and sensitive. He’s decided he loves swimming under water, as well as doing belly flops and twisting jumps into the pool. He loves to draw and color and get ready for a party! We all fell for Harry Potter this past year and have read the entire series out loud together, watched the movies and still listen to the audio stories off and on all day long. He is crazy about Legos and will diligently work to put a set together and then tear it all apart so he can do it again. He knows how to read pretty well, but he still likes to pretend he doesn’t! He gives big hugs, he loves to push his cousin in her stroller on walks, and he tells me he always wants to be with me. I just love to hear him say, “Oh, Momma.”
We couldn’t love him a bit more. I cannot believe what a big kid he’s growing into. He has lost a lot of baby teeth and gotten his permanents back in, and it has really changed his face. My heart aches for my baby, and I’m so glad he still likes to hold my hand, give me kisses and snuggle in my lap.
Here’s a little collection of his images from the year…
