He's adorable, isn't he ;)
My Facebook peeps love the text at the bottom.
I shield them from the real stories. I really had, at 2 months, he has peed in my face as least once a week and month 3: by far the poopiest month - hands down. That's another perk of using a blank "canvas," the text changes when you add it later. Because, one day Brandon will get this beautiful baby growth photo book and on the last few pages - the real stories behind these photos. One day... I will have time to make these into a photo book.
Well, the truth is, he is a baby and like most babies', photos are taken on his/her schedule. He isn't going to stand for much posing. So I take a bunch of photos when he seems his best mood, easy is the only way we play this game.
The trick:
He is actually lying on a form poster board I painted with chalk paint. It's the blank sign idea I wrote about in this post for school photos signs.
Supplies:
- Blank foam board - 2'x3' or 8x10 or really whatever size you prefer
- ...LATER.... Computer using Picasa or PicMonkey.com to add text (when you have time)
Font in this photo: Eraser Dust available on PicMonkey or free download
Picasa is free software you download and PicMonkey is free online software (no download required)

Steps:
1) Lay baby on blank foam board or place a blank foam board next to baby
2) Take as many photos as possible before enough is enough.
3) LATER, and I mean LATER (days, months, years ...and if you manage hours or minutes, great job!) - use the computer to add text.
Every month passes by quick so don't over think it.
Thanks for visiting!
All the best,
Jessica
