What Sound Does a Bear Make? BEAR!

Photographing Saad and Krystal's family reminded me of why I want twin boys (their sons aren't twins but are very close in age).  AJ and Isaiah were an absolute riot to photograph.  At first they were afraid of our quacking duck but then they decided the duck wouldn't be scary if they were the ones making it quack.  The quacking duck spurred the best quote of 2010.

AJ: "Quack, quack, quack"
Stuffed duck: "quack quack quackquackquack"
Saad: "Yes, that's the sound a duck makes."
AJ: "Quack, quack, quack"
Stuffed duck: "quack quack quackquackquack"
Saad: "What sound does a dog make?"
AJ: "Woof woof!"
Stuffed duck: "quack quack quackquackquack"
Saad:"What sound does a bear make?"
AJ: "BEAR!!!"

I think that "BEAR!!!" response had everyone rolling for about 10 minutes.  That laughter was definitely a sign of things to come.  After that, Rock was not to be outdone so he ran outside when we started group shots and decided to do a pull up on the tree in the backyard before he did his crazy man run around the yard.  It was easy to see the joy and happiness these two little boys brought to the whole family.  Saad and Krystal have really worked hard to raise the boys the right way and it shows.
