ILP rolling photo quarantine

I think it's gonna be ok! Not too long after you guys left, we got called up, and the actually nice lady assured me that if I could get my high school transcripts faxed over, I could bring 'em in (without having to bring the baby in again) and get the passport without having to make another appointment.

So I've called my high school, who can't, apparently, send a fax overseas. But my mom's neighbor is going to pick up the transcripts and scan+email them to me. Maybe by the time I get them my stomach will have returned to normal functioning.

(Awesome to run into you guys, and meet Louis, though!)

This is Jules with Ophelia. He's a doll that is used in school. He "teaches" the kids things from washing properly to... going to the doctor. Every weekend or so he gets to join one child and have a sleepover. Sheer hell for the parents cause the whole box with toys, books and CDs have to return the next monday. And "Ophelia"gets to write in the diary and add some pics. :-)

LIFE

Cuteness! Aidan has conjunctivitis at the minute so is not particularly photogenic, but I took these off the camera last night. He is so cute with his cousin! He tries to give her his toys to play with, it's so sweet

So adorable! His chubby cheeks!

Isn't it scary/amazing when you see them next to an even littler person and you realise that they're not babies any more...

omg vicky that last pic is adorable
makes me want more kids... hahah

Hahahaha Stevie she's so cute.

OMG Vicki Aiden and his cousin are RIDICULOUSLY CUTE. Babies = want.

^^^ o rly

Yeah yeah it's no big secret but the time isn't right now. If it were I'd have one in a heartbeat. I mean, look at how awesome they all are!

gotta say the picture of those two on the chair is major size lolz. every time i see really little kids i just think to myself 'you have got to be kidding me'

how is it possible that i am an adult when getting at some point in my life getting into a chair was a serious and vexing problem

I know, it's pretty wild when you think about it. A couple years ago my Dad hauled out some super 8 footage of me from when I was stumbling around in diapers and it was so nuts watching that little drunken sailor looking person and realizing that was me. Mind was blown. I can't even imagine what that's like when it's your own kids you're watching do the growing.

I think the cousin is actually a baby doll.

It may be the wrong place to say this, but I wouldn't worry about things like "timing" when it comes to makin' babies (if you want 'em.)

If someone had told sunny and me, Yeah you're going to get this kid, but three months later he's going to get six months of chemothereapy and then a year's worth of two mortgages, we might have postponed.

And that would've been regretful, to say the very, very least.

x-post - The cousin is like the perfect looking plump little babe. So sweet.

I know PP. That said, we're both out of work and well yeah - not just yet. I'll keep that in mind though because I've heard similar sentiments from others.

i didn't know about the chemo!! oh no!

I'm all good! Just a little cancer.

Vicky's 2nd photo is really gorgeous. They all are, goshdarnit.

I love it when A+T share stuff:

Or even a bit of parallel play:

Yay sharing!

I hope that is a cocktail of everything in that pub you're in.

(still lurking, still in awe of the lot of you, still never having one of my own, still think Aidan and Alice look scarily like their dads)

z playing with the photo booth effects again.

The timing is never perfect. Get off the net and make one already. ;-)

another childless wannabe in this thread just saying AWWWW and all these kids are totally adorable, keep up the good work!

guess the mom
guess the baby
guess the photographer

all three very famous!

never knew he had her as a mom!

coop!

Christ, I really am retarded. Never realized that Gloria was his mom. And Arbus took the picture! WTF.

is Gloria his actual mom or step-mom?

We got Beeps' latest school photo today. Its kind of terrifying how much she has grown in a year.
Note: ghostly figures are my shoddy attempt at hiding identity of classmates and teacher.

Nath, I only knew that was coop and who his mom was because i accidentally caught a biography type show on him a few months ago. xxpost

I found one of Anderson Cooper's dad's books at the library bookstore! I should have kept the GV bio.

surprised we managed to get a picture without the hat completely obscuring her face

Give that baby an award for cuteness right now! Beautiful :)

That is quite some growing up that Beeps has done! Loving her shoes. (What with Alice's Wizard of Oz obsession it can only be a matter of time before we have to source some ruby slippers of her own...)

beeps and pup
