I searched back through a couple thousand photos and found the earliest recorded instance of Cheese Face in January 2010. Caleb was a few weeks shy of his first birthday, there was quite a bit of snow on the ground, and when I pointed the camera at him and ordered him to "Say Cheese!" he took me seriously.
Cheese Face
January 2010 - October 2011
Today, he still has the same adorable chubby cheeks, and he still makes the same face every time we ask him to smile. My walk down memory lane revealed that my middle child has not only always smiled like this, but has also looked exactly the same since he was about six months old. (That was around the time I buzzed his hair for the first time, a haircut he's sported ever since.)
I have a feeling his pictures are going to look exactly like this until he's sixteen. Maybe by then his cheeks will have settled down a little, or he'll have a girlfriend that will convince him to smile with his eyes open.
But for now, I'm still madly in love with his cheeks, and his cheese face. And I hope they both stick around for a while.
