#2 and #3

The one and only, May 2011

When my mom asked me for a family photo of the three of us from 2011, I gave her the best one I had. The only one I had.  Not sure how I so completely missed family-picture taking thing, but I did.  So when a kind mother approached us the other evening at Zoolights and offered to take a picture of the three of us, I jumped on it.  Here's picture #2 of 2011:

Anecdote: Just prior to this picture, we were walking behind a small family who had a dwaddler among them whom the mom was calling for, "Thomas!"  Jude joined in "Thomas, Thomas!"  A few moments later, and very matter-of-factly, Jude declared "Thomas is all gone.  I sorry."

Two days later (and an additional 3 pounds for me-the pregnancy is something else) we upped it to 3 family pics for 2011! Jude and I joined Mark in Inyokern, California for an overnight.  The flight attendant offered to take a picture of us for this one.  I may not be asking people to take our picture anytime soon, but my policy for 2012 will be saying "yes" to offers.   Here's to 4 family pictures in 2012...
