Beautiful Boy

Just a picture to share with you today. We tried to do a photoshoot at the studio where Murray works, but it was too cold and the baby just cried the whole time. So yesterday we did a photo shoot using window light. Here's one of the winners!


I'm learning that having a newborn means that normal day to day tasks take about four times as long to complete. And I'm learning to take advantage of those nap times. So if you'll excuse me, I would love to spend more time blogging, but right now I have dishes and laundry to do, plus get a start on dinner so that it can be ready by tonight. If I have a little extra time, I might work on sewing a few little toys for the baby. (I sent Murray to DI on Saturday to buy some cheap toys that have rattles and bells inside so that I could rip out the sound maker and make my own toys.)

Ooooh, that is a genius idea about the cheap DI toys! I might have to steal that one. And the photo is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

nap it up, sistah. Oh, and for a photo shoot, crank up the heat if you are able. You might break a sweat, but baby will be cozy. He's wonderful. Even though life is now completed in 20 minute increments in which you must decide whether to potty, eat, shower, clean, or even blog. You only get to choose one!

He's beautiful. And what a fun idea about taking the jingles out of cheap toys to make your own! So ambitious! I was rather un-ambitious the first few months. :)

he's very sweet! congrats on having energy to do anything! we ate picard the first three months and i slept whenever the baby did, which I miss now that noƩmie moves around too much to sleep with us.
