Whitaker gives us a workout

On Saturday, we met Whitaker, an 18 month old cutie with a TON of energy. Whitaker's shoot was at Klode Park in Whitefish Bay. For anyone who has never been to Klode Park [it was our first time], there is a HUGE hill that leads down to the lake/beach area. While this was quite trying for still-out-of-shape-post-baby Shannon, for Whitaker and his little 18 month old legs, it was easy-peasy.

We did alot of chasing of the little man, who was very into going down the large staircase, making his way around the park, playing in the sand, and trying out the playground equipment - all the while carrying around Daddy's keys [which he refused to give up]. Every so often, he'd find himself in a bind, because there are some activities you need your hands for, and when your hands are preoccupied with keys, well, what do ya do? The 18 month old answer is, you yell out "Stuck!" and wait for Mom to come to your rescue :)

We definitely got a workout in [I'm still sore... and pathetic!], but it was worth it, Whitaker's pictures turned out awesome, very genuine.

Whitaker, thanks for giving us a sneak peek on what the next year will be like once Ella & Grayson become mobile. We hope you and your Mommy & Daddy enjoy your preview!

One of the first pics of the day - such a cute little family!

I just wanna pinch his cheeks :)

Notice the keys....

It wasn't all rainbows and sunshine, luckily, he was just as cute having a meltdown.

Puddle jumping!

Last pic of the day, and my fave - he just look so no nonsense... like, ok, can we be done?
