I think my most favorite thing about having 4 kids is the repetition.  It’s like each one is practice for their younger sibling.  We learn what we do well, what needs improvement, we learn what to ease up on and what moments to really enjoy.  I think that’s what makes grandparents so cool.

Side note: I’m totally looking forward to being a kick butt grandparent by around 2032.
(I’m also looking forward to finally getting that flying car.)

So, back in the day I used to do a bit of video work.  My company was cleverly called. The Video Guy.  Like any new business I had t-shirts made and one day I took Jo, our only son at the time, out and did few photos.  For some reason we also worked an iPod into the shoot.  Partly because it was cool, partly because listening to music was one way he would stay still while I photographed him.  The video business is long gone but the t-shirt and tradition have stuck around.  A few weeks ago it was Eli’s turn to rock the shirt & iPad 2.

And, because I KNOW you want to see more photos of my kids, here are some of their TVG shoots along with links to the latest and greatest Apple gadget at the time.

Jo | iPod

Sara | iPod (w/video) (I can’t begin to explain how much easier the tiny tiny video screen made road trips.)

Luke | iPhone 3GS (Luke never had to “suffer” watching a 2 inch video screen like Sara & Jo did.)
