Please indulge me, because this is exactly what I needed today.
Professional photography by Kaileen Galhouse.
Music: Calico Skies by Paul McCartney
(Last year's session with Kaileen is here, if you're in the mood for TWO sappy montages and a good dose of OMFG WHERE DID THE BABY GO?)


He is too precious!
Absolutely beautiful. Whatever else life throws at you--sensory issues, fertility issues, anything--I hope you can always look at these photos and realize how blessed you are.
Thanks for sharing!
absolutely beautiful; thank you for sharing this with us. Makes my whole day better!
I cannot wait to get home now! Why? Because video has been blocked at work.
I have indulged and am now basking in the glow of your GORGEOUS family.
Gorgeous, that about says it
The pictures are amazing, and they do the best job of capturing what a treasure Noah is, and how absolutley happy your family is, too. I've come to a realization as of late that I deserve that kind of happiness for myself as well.....I really want that for myself one day....but, in the meantime, I'm so thrilled that you share your happiness with us, and I'm just as happy knowing that you have it right now! :)
Beautiful...
Absolutely lovely. Takes my breath.
What a blessing he is...
Your montages are set to the most PERFECT music!
These are just lovely! We have a fancy camera and take pretty good photos, so I've always been reluctant to lay out the cash to have professional shots done, but seeing you all together as a family - something we can't do when one of us is behind the glass - makes me think I need to bite the bullet and do it. Thanks for the (daily) inspiration!
Beautiful. And I love the song.
The wonderfulness is ... wow. Unbelievably great video. :)
Absolutely beautiful. Beautiful family, beautiful photos.
He is unbelievably beautiful. Great montage :)
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!
So unbelievably gorgeous!
Totally a blubbering mess at work.
Those are so wonderful. I especially love the one of the three of you where Noah is kissing your nose. You are so lucky to have these.
There's something about his eyes in the first b&w that's truly mesmerizing.
And at about 50 seconds in, he has an expression that matches mine in terms of "OMFG WHERE DID THE BABY GO."
I'm bawling my eyes out. So beautiful.
The photos are gorgeous!
very touching. he looks more and more like you, Amy.
i don't even have words to describe how much i enjoyed watching that video. the photographer is amazing as is your family. your hair too.
You guys are seriously the cutest family in the world.
Oh, that last shot was just so lovely. What a beautiful family you have.
He is faaaaabulous. What a darling, awesome, fun kid.
Can I borrow him?
Miss you, Amalah; I'm bad at reading/commenting/emailing now. I suck.
oh wow. that was awesome.
My 13 month old daughter is mesmerised by Noah. When he gets his own iPhone could she have his number?
(you are a gorgeous family and Noah is spectacularly cute and bright!)
covet that last one - (but insert the zdoodlebub family) - what a great shot.
That was beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Oh yay! Can you actually hear the gulp gulp sniff sniff from there?
I loved it!! That Kaileen takes great photos. But then Noah is such a beautiful boy.
Those are so good they could be stock photos. You could be rich!
Like i said yesterday, Noah is simply perfect. What a fabulous video.
I love your kid. Plain and simple. He is so scrumptious and perfectly Noah. Sorry things are a bit tough right now!
Blubbering here, because this is proof that no matter what the books say, this child is, beyond a doubt, perfect.
Thank you for sharing him with us -- today and every day.
Just about as bloody well perfect as it's possible to be.
I'm glad you included an aball. That was a nice touch.
And I know you don't need me to tell you this, but you have a beautiful familah. (Or is it famalah? Spellcheck doesn't recognize either, so you decide.)
That was awesome and beautiful and so sweet!
What a sucker punch. I mean that in the nicest way. :)
You make me want to figure out how to make those little montages.
Noah is a beautiful child and you are so wonderful to share him with us, the unwashed masses. I have been wanting to share back with you because you have brought so much joy to my life and it feels so one sided.
So if you would like to look, here is my little one dressed up for Halloween:

AIIIIEEEE! The cute!
Those are just gorgeous photos!!!
That was seriously the most awesome thing I've seen in a long time. You are quite the photogenic little family.
SSSOOOOOBBBBBB.
Beautiful. I must go make this, and have that song. I hope you don't mind being so blatantly flattered... er, I mean, copied.
The picture where you're with him at the stone wall and then gone - choked me up! Ain't that the truth. We're there to protect them and then they are on their own.
What a beautiful family.
Oh, dear, God. Are you all just the most beautiful family ever? Yes, yes indeed. You are. If you ever wanna come slumming out here in the upcounty, email me, because my neighbors already think I'm lowering the class level of the neighborhood and if you showed up I might redeem myself. Seriously.
Just beautiful.
Oh he is just too cute. Those family shots are wonderful, too.
OMFG, he is so precious. I am due with a boy in January, and if he is half as beautiful as Noah, I will be content.
He, of course, will be. :)
These are breathtaking photographs. So beautiful.
