Maida's favorite thing to pretend is that she's a wife and a mom, however my personal favorite thing that we pretend is photographers.
While Skogen is napping and with Maida as my assistant, we build backdrops (with dirty bed sheets thrown over the baby swing) and snap some pictures with my fancy camera (the camera on my phone).
Here is our baby in the basket shot...
I didn't have a basket big enough to hold this 19 pound 1 ounce baby boy, but we pretended that it was just what we needed. I also couldn't get the camera to focus on his face, but since our little baby model woke up two seconds after this picture was taken and this is the only picture we took, we're pretending that it's all perfectly in focus.
I'm hoping that by the time we have a fourth one, Erik will let me pay for professional pictures, and then I'll not only get great pictures (and more than one), but then I'll be able to pretend to be a model, too!
(Ha! Just pretending again - about the fourth part...)
That pic is great! I looked at it before I read the post and wondered who the photographer was! You captured everything...his hands, his feet, his cubby rolls we all want to squeeze, his sweet peaceful face when sleeping.
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks professional to me - what a great picture!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe K is 19 lbs, that is hilarious & awesome. His rolls are simply delicious. Nathaniel (my third, currently 13.5 months) is 20 lbs, 1 oz.
And I love hearing you say, "when we have a fourth"....yeaaahhh! I won't be alone in the (fun &) insanity, LOL.
