My Family Picture

Here is my Mom, Dad, and me at our first family picture. These pictures were taken just before my two week birthday, by a friend who is a photographer. We took lots of pictures that day, so I picked out a few of the best ones to share with everyone.


Here I am in my Dad's hands. He holds me like this all the time and talks to me. It is our favoite position. It won't be long and I will not fit anymore, so we will just have to find a different position. I figured out, in the mornings, that all I have to do is stare at him and he will do whatever I want, even go in late to work because he doesn't want to put me down.


This is my Mom. She sings and dances with me all the time. Sometimes I cry just so she will pick me up and sing. For 8 months while I was in the womb, she taught 1st-4th grade elementary music, so I got use to hearing her sing, along with all her 1100 kids that she taught. My parents are starting to figure out that when I am fussing, a little music will calm me down. Boy parents are hard to train!


And finally here I am all by myself, sitting on a nice, soft pillow. They tried to get me to sleep to get one of those cute pictures of me in a basket or flower pot, but I didn't want anthing to do with that. I was afaid of missing something. I am learning here, I need to absorb as much as I can.
