It was a bit unexpected the first time I said, “the boys” talking about our two sons. But it just seems to fit now and Ashley & I just watch them both with a giant smile and laugh at all the cute things they do and say.

It’s also funny how many times I’ve pulled out my iphone to show off my sons in the past two weeks! Probably at about every shoot and wedding as well as at the grocery store and running errands. I guess I’m just a proud papa as they say.

With that said, I know people come here for images of weddings and people and I hope to deliver some of that next week. We’re out this week shooting and celebrating with family. In the meantime enjoy these images of the boys interacting. The last few are of Baron who bonked his head. The otter pop sure seemed to heal both the emotional and physical trauma that came with the injury.

My son Baron and I have birthdays two weeks apart so I thought it would be fun to share a party before baby boy number two (Roman) is expected to arrive sometime in May. We had a bit of a scramble to get the house ready for guests as my wife Ashley recently took a crowbar to the kitchen cabinets. All that to say we were putting in extra hours sheet-rocking, texturing and painting the walls (I must say that Ashley actually did most of the work!! I had a pretty busy work week and she stepped up. I was up late a few nights with the heavy lifting and moving but it’s enjoyable once it’s all said and done). By the way, we found the best cups ever in San Diego (see above photo).

Is this too much torch?

too much cuteness?
