Bode is 18 Months! (Warning: Photo Overload)

Our littlest man is 18 months now!  He is getting SO fun these days.  We think he may be actually becoming just as silly as Eben is (so this outfit was just perfect for him)!  He is walking so well now - a smart walker which I blame on the fact that he was a later walker.  He tries to jump, but can't quite get it yet.  He is FINALLY starting to say a few things and tries to make animal sounds.  He really is so darn adorable, inside and out, and we look forward to continue watching him grow!!

I posted half of the pictures on Facebook, but decided to just post them all here (and there are a lot!).  I had recently purchased a new camera I had been saving up for - my "dream" camera - the Canon 5D Mark II.  This shoot was the first time I gave it a shot (even though I am still getting to know the camera and learning all of the new stuff and different locations of buttons, etc.).  Well, I quickly decided that my investment in the camera was TOTALLY worth it!  It is just so much smarter...finds my subject to focus on faster, the accuracy of the auto focus is incredible, and I do feel like the pictures were nicer straight out of my camera.  Also, it's ability to shoot in low light is wonderful as I do quite a bit of indoor work as well.  I am so very excited to have this new piece of equipment...now to figure out which lens to save up for next!
