Atlanta-based mom and pastry chef Lindsay Morrison, 31, came up with the idea to use burgers to mark her son Graham's first 12 months of life using burgers because it's a family favorite.

Morrison and her husband, Ben Morrison, are such burger lovers that they incorporated burgers into their pregnancy announcement.

“I put my favorite burger above my side [of the bed] and his favorite burger on his side,” said Morrison. “When we found out I was pregnant, to announce our pregnancy, we put a picture of a slider above the crib.”

When the baby arrived on Feb. 5, 2019, and the couple was debating names, a small joke turned into the real-deal. They chose Graham and joked about the perks of a nickname.

“We were thinking, ‘What are we going to call him, Graham-burger?’ and then I was like, ‘Wait, that’s so good!’” said Morrison.

At this point, the burger-themed monthly milestone pictures only seemed natural, she explained.

Mother, Lindsay Morrison, says her favorite picture is month four because of Graham's smile.

“It just evolved into this ridiculous thing we did every month and it was so fun,” said Morrison. “Looking back on his first year, this is what I’m going to remember - dragging a burger box and a foam board to my parents house and making everyone come over for lunch.”

“I hope he doesn’t grow up and become a vegetarian because that would just be ironic,” Morrison told “GMA.”
