Don’t Make That Face at Me
Thursday 03.06.08When JJ was little, we took pictures: lots of pictures. Because, like all new parents, we thought, “How unique! How quaint! Our baby does things that *no* other baby does. And we will document every minute little bit and then share it with others, because they will care.” Now, we know better.
One time we sat taking pictures of JJ making faces, which actually turned out quite amusing, because he made about as many faces as Jim Carrey and his elastico-visage. So the other day, feeling a little guilty that Little A hasn’t had quite the photog treatment, I flashed him till his little eyeballs should’ve fallen out. The results:

Followed by:

And then we have:

Not to be outdone by:

Oh, and this one cracked me up:

Because it was so different from this one:

And then we thought we’d shake it up a bit:

This one, aw man, so crazy:

Wait for it, wait for it:

I know it’s a bit edgy, but:

And Tyra told us this one is fierce:

He was really starting to feel the burn:

But after much coaxing and affirmations that he’s gorgeous and his profile is just like Twiggy’s:

Whew: that was exhausting. I don’t know how he does it. He finally sped away in his SUV, managed to run over my toe, and made his way to Starbucks for some puffs.
A day in the life: I tell ya.

AJ, you have an awesome sense of humor. I was cracking up by picture #3. But, that boy is soooo cute even if we only get “one good shot.”

Bwwwaaaahhhaaaaa! I would do “LOL” but that is so nineties web :). I get the same, I’m telling you, the same reaction from Huxley–these young ones are just so jaded. Huxley gets in a huff and then blogs lies about me.
A is too cute–looks a tad bit Irish to his grand-auntie.
Yay for taking pictures. Mucho pics of you and your brother for future amusement of your munchkins (and brother’s too). I think your Mom had more pictures taken than her baby sister but she *might* disagree since, like JJ, I liked to get into every photo and show the pearly whites.
Oh, and you’re a genius.

I would say you captured Blue Steel in the third one. All I can hear in my head is good Old Derek: I caught my reflection in a spoon while I was eating my cereal, and I remember thinking “wow, you’re ridiculously good looking, maybe you could do that for a career.”

Ha! And a double HA!
And also, I’m totally guilty of what you describe!!!
