Ok, so no pics, but we HAD to record CJ's first Family Home Evening. Now that he's in Nursery, and is picking up words left and right, and really gets a lot of concepts, we thought it was time to really have FHE - not just go get a treat and call it Family Home Evening :). Here was the rundown:
Song: "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam"
Opening Prayer: Mommy
Lesson: I Can Pray to Heavenly Father (from the Nursery manual), by Mommy
Scripture: 3 Nephi 18:19, by Daddy
Closing Song: "I Pray in Faith" (second verse)
Closing Prayer: CJ
That's right - CJ said his first prayer! Sometimes he mumbles when we're saying CJ's prayers, and about half the time he says, "Amen," but this was his first prayer with actual words (we assisted him, of course). It went like this:

"Thank you"
"Bless treats"
"Amen"
We LOVED it!! And of course, we headed out to Coldstone and all shared an ice cream for our FHE treats. It was a wonderful night and a great start to a regular Monday night thing!
