01smWow, ten weeks already! Well, he'll be 10 weeks old on Tuesday, but still! We had a super busy week over here at Shuttersmack HQ now that we've hit mid-November. I've been doing more shoots, which means much more work at the computer as well. This, sadly, results in less time for Ezra photos (although I still photograph him a lot). So here we go!02smLast Sunday was Ezra's first trip to the Mall of America. Look at that face! He's just as overwhelmed as we are by that place! What a cutie. We went there to get in some exercise (tons of walking since the sidewalks here were covered in ice) and then we found some huge sales at baby stores. So it was a pretty good day.03smI like this photo a) because you can see all the standing that's happening around these parts, b) you can see adorable Magda trying to kiss Ezra and c) you get a sense of his size in comparison to my sweet (yet crazy) Vizsla. 04smWith all the added work, my friend Meredith is coming over to watch Ezra a few times a week so that I can catch up on computer work. SUPER HELPFUL!05smAnd, uh, we had shots this week. Poor kid. I snapped these photos super quick before scooping this cutie up into my arms to comfort him. Amazingly, he quieted down immediately and then just slept all day -- which was the most I could have hoped for. This photo seriously tugs at my heart though.06smBut see!? This was taken today, so he's all over those traumatic shots and just happy to be hanging out with the family.For your internet share of the day, are you listening to Serial? It's not a band, it's a weekly show on NPR. I was immediately sucked in and now I'm more skeptical, but I still love to listen. Anyway, this graphic on the show is AMAZING. Enjoy!
