Smiles

If you chance to meet a frown


Do not let it stay...


Okay, so Damon has been smiling for weeks now, but we have failed to really try to get a good picture of it. Part of the problem is that Nate is gone all day studying for the bar, even on Saturdays (poor Nate) so I have no one to take the picture. I'm sure Natalie's trigger finger wouldn't be fast enough. It's almost impossible (almost, because I did take these pictures) to be the one trying to make the baby smile and taking the picture. Damon sees that camera appear right next to my face and all of a sudden it becomes far more interresting than me, and he zones out into another dimension while staring at it. Anyway, Damon has a really cute smile. He is a pro at the open-mouthed smile. He's getting good at laughing as well. It's so much fun. Natalie loves to see him smile and can't stand to miss a single one. If she is in the other room and hears me talking to Damon in the "I'm trying to get a smile voice" she will yell, "Mom, don't let Damon smile!" and then comes running in. So hopefully I will get some better pictures soon, but for now, these are the best I have. :)

Baby smiles are so fun! It's too bad that you can never catch the best ones on camera--those are some of the moments I wish I could freeze in time and go back to on a regular basis.

I have been trying so hard to get a pictue of Haydn smiling, but every time the camera comes out he goes completely straight faced. Good job catching it.
