Who could resist this new linky by Shell at Things I Can’t Say?
Rockin’ the Baby follows the hugely successful Rockin’ The Bump with over 200 Mamas showing off their baby bumps! And all you have to do is link up a favorite baby picture.
I have so many pictures of my Monkey to choose from, so I’ll spare you and share with you my absolute favorites from the early days.
Chubby-cheeked goodness, 4 days old, January 1, 2010
“Eye” see you, 5 days old, January 2, 2010
The first photo of us that I love, 5 days old, January 2, 2010
Showing a healthy attitude, 1 week old, January 5, 2010
(I posted this before way back in April, but it’s too good not to share again!)
Do you have a favorite baby picture you want to show off? Link up now! Link is open til July 18.
Yummy, yummy baby. Love those shots!
Thanks Ali! He is nom worthy indeed.
Aw, so adorable!
Thank you Jackie!
Love that last one. My daughter really liked showing off her middle finger as a baby, too. It was hilarious. I miss that.
C @ Kid Things ‘s last awesome post..Cheerleading
It is pretty funny. Now that she’s older, I guess it would be inappropriate to ask her to show the finger again while you take a picture. A pity, it would have been funny
So sweet and fuzzy! And you rock that short hair, mama!
Julie @ mamamash ‘s last awesome post..Officially burning up with baby fever
Thank you! I do miss the short hair, but I don’t have time to maintain it now!
Such a cutie!
Love that last one!
Shell ‘s last awesome post..Rockin’ the Baby Link-Up with Prizes!
Thank you Shell! And thank you for dreaming up this fun linky.
Oh my God how adorable !!!! I love all of these photos but my favorite is “The Eye.” What an incredible, incredible shot. Great photography (but what a cute subject you had to work w.) Love the shirt too – I’m New Here. So cute!
Ado ‘s last awesome post..This Week’s To Don’t List
Thank you Ado! The ‘Eye’ is one of my absolute favorites of him. I wish I could take credit for the photography but I can’t. My brother-in-law snapped all these (except for the one with me in it) with his fancy-schmancy SLR camera.
I have kept that onesie
HA! He’s so your child!
Also, love the onsie!!
Beautiful pics

Runnermom-jen ‘s last awesome post..Rockin’ My Babies…
Hehe, thank you Jen.
So adorable. I LOVE the middle finger shot. I bet he meant it too and that shot of the 2 of you is fantastic. It’s hard to get a good mom and newborn shot because it is hard to feel pretty after giving birth, but you look gorgeous. Anyway, awesome pictures!
Thank you!! I was run ragged by day 5 but cleaned up when we were getting discharged from the hospital – which is why I consented to pictures
I believe he meant the finger shot too – we were trying to get a picture fit for his passport, can you believe it. I think he got pissed off with us lol
oh the cuteness {And the hilarity!}! *Love!*

Thank you, I think he’s pretty cute too! My brother-in-law took the photos (except for the one with me in it), he’s pretty good eh? I love the onesie too! Have kept it naturally.
So cute! Love the bird picture.

Christine @ Quasi Agitato ‘s last awesome post..On Children #vlogtalk
Thank you! I was only fully dressed as we were getting discharged from the hospital
Monkey is so cute. He still has the same lovely eyes. Incredible how easy it is to see the resemblance with early baby photos,even when they look completely different in years time.
Stasha ‘s last awesome post..Monday Listicles
Thank you Stasha – Monkey sends his love and sloppy kisses. Yes, I can sometimes still see the baby in him, especially when he’s sleeping. With his bum in the air.
He is adorable but I canNOT believe he is giving the photographer the finger!!!
Alexandra ‘s last awesome post..Finding The Moments That Count
Hee hee! His uncle was taking hundreds of pictures. I think he was tired of all that clicking
Okay, CUTE! Love it and I adore the one where he is flipping the camera off! We have one sort of similar of Max and it makes me laugh every time I see it!
Minky ‘s last awesome post..What I like about me…

So cute! All of them. I especially love the “Eye See You.”
