Funny face

Anyone who has a kid knows that amassing ridiculous amounts of cloyingly cute photos comes with the mama and papa territory. But, after a while—in our case nine months—all of those adorable faces that you just HAD to record for posterity’s sake start to blur into one beautiful-(but let’s be honest)-kind-of-boring-blob.

For this reason, it’s the silly pictures that begin to stand out. I realized this after browsing through hundreds, no, thousands of pictures of our little man. There were countless ones that made me go “aw,” but it was that ones that elicited a laugh that really stole my heart and made me want to start snapping away once again.

Without further ado, here they are for your viewing pleasure. I hope they bring a smile to your face—and heart—like they do mine.
