Once I could prop him up, I started taking weekly photos of Nash in the same blue chair so we could watch him grow. It started out something like this….
And a few months into it, he looked something like this:
This is how week 52 ended up and I figured this would be the end of the show:
But alas the documentarian in me insisted the show must go on so now every year on his birthday, I drag out the chair for an annual photo. Here’s year 2, sharing the spotlight with Vegas:
Year 3 I let him pick his own outfit. Um, possible mistake:
Year 4 was pretty darn cute. It was the “don’t ever put down Thomas” and “Clifford Rules” phase:
Year 5 was on our way out the door to NASCAR. Really.
And here we are six years later. The chair had to be dug out of the attic of the garage only to be put back a few days later.
If I have my way (and you know I will) I will be stuffing a grown man into this chair in his tuxedo on his wedding day….
this makes me totally want to turn back time and do this with my kids. darn you nash’s mom.
WOW1 What fun to see the ywarly pictures again. He is just too darn cute. Can’t wait to see him.XOXO
i love the blue chair tradition – glad you didn’t let it go – i used to love those baby pics in the blue chair – I also recommend having him and his date sit in the chair for a prom picture.
