Once Dylan had worn all of his newborn outfits at least once, the holidays were in full swing so the picture taking kind of fizzled out. However, we recently have switched from Dylan's newborn outfits to 0-3 month clothes (I know, it's hard to believe that an 11 pound baby still fit in newborn clothes, but he's so short!!), and I've received many requests from my mother for updated pictures of the boy, so the picture taking has resumed.
I must admit, my photos aren't near as elaborate as my mothers (no more props or clever poses), but Shane still gets fun emails from Dylan almost every day at work, usually detailing his sleeping and pooping habits that day and how bored he is hanging out with just Mom :)
I thought I'd post a series of the best of each photo shoot thus far along with Dylan's age at the time, just to give you an idea of what I put this poor boy through! (And to show how much he's changed in just over a month...) Enjoy!

5 weeks 6 days {Dylan chose to wear this shirt yesterday because somehow each time he woke up in the night it was right when I was in my deepest sleep. He just wanted to remind me why I'm willing to give up my sleep...}
6 weeks (today) -- Notice the ever-growing belly and cheeks!This last one helps me remember how close he is to smiling for real. He has the cutest smiles when he's sleeping, but we're still working on awake smiles. I think this one was a fluke, but it's so cute!
