It’s Tuesday…
…and I don’t have a new recipe to share with you, but I DO have some new adorable pictures of Joseph hanging out in his pajamas by the Christmas tree :)
He picked up waving a couple of weeks ago and he’s pretty good at it now… every morning when I go into his room, he stands up in his crib, gives me the biggest smile and waves like crazy. It melts my heart every single day.
Glimpse of a future senior portrait?
And this happy, smiling face… it’s the best thing in the world.
I hope you have a great day!
Joseph is such a cutie pie! I look forward to seeing pictures of him as much as I look forward to seeing recipes. Enjoy this time with him they grow way too fast!
What a little heart breaker! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
These pictures brighten my week! Thank you for sharing Joseph’s cute smiling face! :)
Love the baby pictures and the pup pictures. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy these baby days as it truly does fly by. My baby boy is 22 and 6’2″ but I still try to cuddle with him. Happy Holidays!
Aww, this was such a delight to see. This December is really difficult to enjoy because someone very, very special to me is now gone; it’s been hard to smile lately. But your photos of your adorable son definitely had me smiling. What a sweet expression, God bless him! Thanks for sharing with us :)
My condolences to you, Maxine. Sending lots of hugs and happy thoughts your way.
What a lovely post, Michelle! Your recipes are fantastic, but we can easily go without an awesome BEB-recipe for a sweet post like this. Thanks for the treat today!
What a cutie!
What a fabulous surprise . . . came here for the latest recipe, but wound up finding something – someone! – better than a recipe. You just can’t beat his smile. Although I have to say the “glimpse of a future senior portrait” brought tears to my eyes. In retrospect the time goes so quickly. I can hardly believe I have 2 recent COLLEGE grads and a college junior, and my 2 recent graduates are both getting married within the next 10 months. I enjoy your pics of Joseph so much as they bring a flood of memories from “yesterday” back to me. Have the most Merry Christmas. I know you’ll be treasuring each minute.
You made my day posting these ADORABLE pictures! How can you not smile
seeing THAT smile. These moments are priceless! I was a little surprised to see a Tuesday post (ha) but actually thought to myself “I hope it’s new pictures of Joseph.” WHAT A BLESSING!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
With a cutie-pie like that to play with every day I’m impressed you have as many new recipes as you do! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thanks for the big smile this morning!
I cannot believe how big Joseph has gotten!
What beautiful pictures of such a happy little guy! May I ask? What camera/lens setup do you use? We’re expecting our first baby in February and I’d like to take more photographs. . .with a camera that is not my cell phone! Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you!
Hi Lisa, We have a Canon 5D Mark III, although I totally loved my Canon Rebel t2i as an entry level SLR (way more price friendly!) – that was five or six years ago, and I’m sure there are much newer models. Most of the pictures are shot using my 100mm 2.8 macro lens, mostly because that’s what I keep on my camera for food photos. I also love a 50mm lens for general purpose pictures!
This is better than a recipe. He is changing so much and know how much you love him. Enjoy your time with him. They grow up so fast. He is old enough to enjoy Christmas and you will have more fun with him. Merry Christmas.
Such a sweet boy! What gorgeous pictures – he really seems like such a happy baby…you are a very fortunate mama! Hope Duke and Einstein are happy too!
Thank you for posting these pictures, it put a huge smile on my face. Joseph is the most precious little guy! Merry Christmas…..and a Happy New Year.
As my grandma used to say, “I could eat him with a spoon” He is so adorable. I think his smile, might be better then any recipe you could share. Merry Christmas
From a mom with grown boys, enjoy every minute, it goes fast
He is so cute in his little pjs!!
He is just too, too cute! Love the pics of your little guy and the pups and love all the recipes that I have tried here. Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
Thank you for sharing your handsome little guy with all of us. He is getting so big! This made my heart melt too remembering my little boy’s 1st Christmas. What a blessing! Enjoy everyday with him!
What a blessing! Thanks for posting these pictures of Joseph – I will be smiling all day! It’s been many years since I had a little one of my own posing by the tree, but I remember giving my kids new pajamas every year on Christmas Eve, just so they would look great in the Christmas morning pictures :-)
Enjoy every minute!!
I still give my 10 year old new pajamas on Christmas Eve. He rolls his eyes at me now, but he looks great in Christmas Morning pictures! :)
We didn’t have this tradition growing up, but it’s one that I love and am going to be doing this year with Joseph!
He’s precious and always looks so HAPPY! Your tree looks nice too. : )
Ur son is soooooo cute . His smile made me smile . He is a sweet boy. Thanks for the amazing recipes .
I love seeing photos of Joseph! My little girl was born on the 22nd, so just a few days after him. It’s fun to compare them as they grow every month. I have to say that Joseph has A LOT more hair than my baby :)
Hi Jana, Haha! He was born with a TON of hair! He lost some of it and then it came back with a vengeance. My husband has already given him two haircuts!
Your little boy is adorable! I am looking forward to the time when my 8-week old little girl can do some more. Her smiles are melting my heart as of now!
Your baby boy is gorgeous! I also love your dogs. Thanks for all the great Recipes. Have as stress free Holiday Season as possible! :)
Enjoy this time with your little guy! Having young children has totally reignited my love of Christmas! To see how excited they get for Christmas lights and trees, the magic of Santa, hot chocolate with marshmallows, Christmas movies, etc. is the best! It’s like I get to be a little kid again, too!
He is SO GORGEOUS !!!!!
Spent special time with my 14 month old Grand daughter for Hanukkah …Sabrina is close to calling my husband ” PA PA” ” … I’m just thrillled she dives into my arms from my daughters .
Enjoy EVERY second …
Happy Holidays & Lots of Hugs

Thanks for sharing such adorable photos of your handsome little boy! It is a joyous season & I love that he is in tune with that & all of his surroundings. This age is so precious with everything he is discovering it brand new to him. Likewise we are re-discovering it along with him too! Can’t wait for you to see more of him! He truly is so engaging & delighted at himself waving, perhaps a future politician?
He is the most beautiful little boy!! You are truly blessed this Christmas Season!
I use to come here for the recipes, now I come hoping for a Joseph picture! He is the cutest, sweetest baby boy!! Merry Christmas!
This posting is a recipe for smiles!

What a great way to start the morning……. with precious pictures of Joseph ….I believe he’s a keeper….lol,
He is just too cute for word. Merriest of Christmases to you and yours! XO
You could have titled the post as “Recipe for a Smile”. Thanks, I needed to start my day with a smile. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
What a little sweetheart Joseph is! It’s no small wonder that his smile melts your heart. Christmas is going to be so much fun for you and your family with a little one running around. Enjoy these special moments!
I read everyday but never comment. Today I just gave to say he is adorable! The senior portrait is the cutest. Enjoy these days they fly by way too fast.
Joseph is so cute!
