Taking photos while my son plays with matches*:

Taking photos of my son dressed up like an extra from FAME!:**

* At least we didn’t give him the matches. He wandered off by himself, went ominously quiet, and was found engrossed in match play. I am, however, responsible for leaving them too close to the edge of the desk.
** The headband is because Huey’s hair is now so long it gets in his eyes, but I can’t bear to cut it. The stripy leggings are to keep his legs warm while allowing him maximum mobility to practice his new, wobbly, all fours crawling. The skivvy is to keep his top warm. There is a reason for everything, but the total outfit went way beyond the sum of the parts.

deep belly laugh. loey looks like a cool beatnik smokerman. and huey? extra from fame = yes.

Ha! I laughed out loud at that Huey pic. He’s adorable and would give Leroy a run for his money. I find that the leggings do give them maximum mobility while crawling - especially when you use bulky cloth diapers. And Loey - it looks like he’s enjoying eating the wrong end of that match too much.

De-lurking here (or have I commented before? I don’t remember…. sorry)
Anyway - I laughed out so loud my collegue asked what had happened. I have to stop reading blogs at work!
Thanks for a lovely blog.
