Smile, Deeder!
May 16th, 2008 by Laura
Kids all seem to reach an age where they decide that when a camera is pointed their way they are supposed to put on a special face. Next comes the stage when they decide that they should hide from cameras, we’re not there yet!
Here’s Deeder’s special camera face:
Tongue out. Smile on, and laughing.
He’s a blur in the legs because he’s sitting there kicking his legs back and forth (um, okay, you already guessed that. oh well.) The kicking legs don’t really take much away from the picture–I just ought to increase the shutter speed a bit.
Isn’t the outfit cute?
It’s from Aidan, Deeder’s Alaska buddy.
Thanks for sending it along, Jen! It fits just right and looks pretty good on him too. What size is Aidan in? He must be getting pretty tall if this one was too small for him!
The pant legs fall down over Deeder’s feet yet when he stands up.
In Carly news. No baby yet! We’re hoping she’ll be here soon, really hoping!
Yesterday Deeder and I went for a walk, intending for it to just be to the end of the road and back, that’d be about two miles and the day was perfect for getting a little exercise. We ended up going about six miles! I wasn’t feeling tired yet by the end of the road and Deeder was having a great time looking around and saying hi to all the dogs that were out walking their people.
I sortof doubt that all that walking will help Carly come any sooner, considering I walked a whole lot while I was pregnant with Deeder and he came late. Oh well.
On Wednesday we bought Carly her carseat. It isn’t pink like Daddy was hoping for, but it is a carseat with high ratings on the ole crash test chart and that’s what matters. Right? It’s still in the box–Daddy says that he has a good two days after she’s born to install it, which is true.
He did unpack the sweetpeace and set it up. Deeder’s been having fun messing around with the controls, giving his dolly fun rides in it.
I guess that’s about all for now.

If anything exciting happens this weekend that lands me in the hospital with a new baby I’ll have my momma guest blog about it. How’s that sound?
