Liam 9 months | Bozeman Helena MT Baby Photographer

I know kids grow fast, especially their first couple years. It always amazes me how I look at older pictures of my girls and wonder where the time has gone with they're not even in kindergarten yet! That's one reason I am so happy when parents ask me to photograph their baby's first year. The changes in these little ones every three months just blows me away.

I met Liam the first time when he was about a week old. He gave me a run for my money, but looking back I still can't get enough of his little wrinkles! A few months later, his mama and I met at Lindley Park for an outdoor session. He was even cuter than the first time. By the time he was six months old, he was already figuring out how to get himself around! And now, at 9 months, he's even more of a charmer and SO aware of what he wants!

He's been giving me this look since day 1:

But all it took was some of his daddy's antics to get him to flash me that big grin!

I couldn't resist the whole ET thing when I saw all his adorable friends in his nursery. What a lucky guy to be surrounded by so much love!!

Go get 'em, kiddo!!

See you for your birthday - I know it'll come all too soon!!
