Say cheese.

About 10:30 this morning, we took Big Boy out to Hopkins, MN for a Target photo shoot. Upon arrival at Fuzebox Studio, we hung out for a bit to let the little guy slowly awake from his "commuter snoozefest." (Owen always likes to catch some zzz's when us big people are driving him around.) Upon filling out some paperwork, we were off to Hair & Make-up. As you could guess, the first part was a breeze. For the make-up part, I have to say O-Robs was as cool as a penguin drinking a milkshake-- even while the lady brushed some kind of powdery bidness on his cheeks. Nearby, a couple of crew ladies were ooh'ing and ahh'ing over him as he giggled and flirted with them non-stop. Total lady killer, that boy. Next thing we knew it, it was show time. As the pictures show, this was a topless shoot for Mr. Owen but he handled the task nicely-- like an extremely professional, Brazilian supermodel. Oh, and to keep O from getting cold, the assistants directed a heater at him the whole time. He was in heaven. The boy just laid on his back looking up at the camera while all the strobe-y flashes were going off. Mom and Dad tickled him, dangled toys and played baby games for the full hour while Owen impressed the photographer with his calm and patient demeanor. Such a good day for Owen. Not a peep out of the little guy, much to everyone's surprise. The pictures looked incredible so I'm hoping that we get a couple to share these with you all soon. O's photo should appear on packaging for a Target baby product in the next few months, which we'll naturally be buying a ton of whenever we find out whatever it is. Meanwhile here are a couple snaps I got with my phone...
