Two Year Old Portraits

Paul and I took Alec to get his two year old portraits done today and they came out pretty darn cute. We were prepared with the lessons we learned at his one year old portraits:

1. We canNOT do family portraits and toddler portraits in one sitting
2. Bring a soft toy to make dance and Alec laugh
3. A change of clothes will simply NOT be accepted without a tantrum
4. No pictures can be taken after 5 minutes of smiling (photographer MUST be fast)

It worked! Last year we were struggling to find one we really liked, this year we were struggling to narrow down the poses we really liked:

Quick learning Mum - well done!
They look really lovely. I really like the one at the top with him holding the letters, and the one with the brown background.

So did Alec just turn two? I know his birthday is almost exactly the same as one of mine, but couldn't remember whose? Rachel's is the 6th April, so I guess it might be hers?!
