David is 9 months old! His eyes are still his most arresting feature, followed closely by his (getting long) wavy/curly hair. He has 5 teeth and loves Cheerios and organic pumpkin with apples. He's a fast little crawler - even a little noisy about it, purposefully slapping his hands down on the kitchen floor - and is happy playing on the floor with toys and exploring his environment. He is sleeping well (after a little training) - 12 hours at night and two 1-or-2 hour long naps during the day. He is absolutely an angel about being in the car running errands or being hauled around to any of his brother's activities.
Meanwhile I've been really getting into photography, learning to do whatever I can with my Panasonic non-slr (and PSE), so I've been capturing David in a more refined way than I ever did my other babies. Charlie's my ham, always willing to be photographed, which I'm grateful for since the older boys are less willing and comfortable models and David can't hold still - which pushes my slow AF with a max lens ap of 3.5 to it's limit! This post is a small collection of recent snapshots in the life of my smallest sweetheart.
I'd really love if my family & friends (and friendly visitors) would leave a comment! (Be someone who "shared the joy" below. Thanks.)
He's a doll!
ReplyDeleteAnd my invoice came in the mail. I'll try to call you tomorrow between our five soccer games. : (
Good job with the pics! I especially love the last photo. I would love to learn more about the manual settings on my camera. I read a few things just the other day and need to keep on reading....
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I love the one with Mark and his son. Which photo shall I post in the Gab?
ReplyDeleteLove the first one most, I think. That is a real Dame boy pic! Thanks for all of them!

His eyes stand out most - but I always think of his lips - so distinctive on a baby.
