Mason's Blessing!

We flew to Utah to have Mason blessed so that we could be with all our family. My brother blessed his baby boy Henry too. Also my niece Emma was baptized! It was a great weekend as Mike's sisters were all there too! It was a crazy whirlwind of a trip and it completely wore us out but it was really worth it.

Are 'professional' portraits worth it?

If any one reads this blog, please give me your opinion. I got cheesy portraits taken of my first two kids at JcPenny, Sears, Target, etc. when they were newborn infants and I didn't really love how they turned out. We actually took much better pictures ourselves of the kids. I am torn on if I should venture that way again just for the sake of it. My sweet Mason is now 3 months and although we have many great pictures of him and we bought a brand new camera right before he was born to be able to take good pictures I am afraid that he will look back when he is older and feel less loved. My friend April said that happened to her sister (also the 3rd child) and she still feels a little bad. Do I spend the money and accept mediocre pictures or just realize that what we have and take in the furture is enough, or is it?
