Lovely Archie!
A trip to see their nana up on Merseyside - the highlight of which is always the ice-cream rest-stop 50 miles from the end in rural Cheshire. In the last pic, Ava wanders through my childhood park. They've landscaped the tennis courts, y'know.

I love how different your kids are! Mine are so similar. I was looking at pics at my parents' place in Tokyo. I was sure I had it right... until I noticed that "Ophelia" had a pacifier and Elisabeth didn't. I got it wrong. hah!

We're finding it harder to tell them apart vocally - esp when they call downstairs at night. Takes us a second or two to be really sure who is being the nuisance. (Last night it was "Daddy! Daddy! My covers!" Lulu's duvet was bunched up at the foot of her bed and it was obviously too much effort for her to drag it back up over herself. But who doesn't like being tucked in, eh?)

makes me a little nostalgic with our youngest already being 16 months. it's such a short time ago that i could literally tuck him into the crook of one arm. he's still a baby, other people still call him a baby when they see him, but he's not a baby baby.

Perhaps we should celebrate and capture the extraordinary phenomenon of these kids just getting bigger all the time with some collages. Picasa (which is free) makes this pretty easy. I don't think I could manage it tonight - too much work to do - but it might be fun to see a snap per month (or every other month) for some of the ILP near-toddlers/toddlers/pre-schoolers. For the moody adolescents...one a year?

― Hillary had Everest in his veins (sunny successor), Wednesday, 26 August 2009 02:30 (fourteen years ago) link
having a kid that eats is a huge relief, considering that his older brother who will be 5 in a week still only eats about 6 things. (we're trying to figure out how he's going to survive at school. for the moment we're planning on packing a thermos of macaroni and cheese for him, since that is what he has for lunch every day.) but rex, the younger one, is much wider ranging. you can put almost anything in front of him and he'll take at least a bite. and a lot of things he'll just chow right through. (especially fresh fruits and veggies. very gratifying.)
― flying squid attack (tipsy mothra), Wednesday, 26 August 2009 14:03 (fourteen years ago) link
Owen is on the right. My wife said he was standing on his toes (which is why he looks taller).
The first day went pretty well. They actually took a NAP, if you can believe it. It's a co-op, so my wife has to teach there one day a week. Today will be their first day without mommy.

That's Ava's sort-of school uniform. They're not too strict as long as you adhere to colours and everything is fairly plain. Don't want to go overboard here, but here's a couple of small ones for comparison (probably posted on other threads before) - Ava and Lulu at start of Ava's nursery year and the two of them at end of nursery year. (We do have a similar shot of them at the front door for Sept '09 but I prefer the garden pic above)...

Right after this shot, Elisabeth decided to have some of Ophelia's meat. It's the first time she has eaten something we cooked. She usually eats specific baby food (spaghetti 12-36 months). You don't know how happy this made.

Good work! With Ava and Lulu, blowing bubbles usually ends up being an advanced form of spitting. Lulu still hasn't mastered blowing her own nose (she finds the whole operation hilarious).

Y'know, I am STILL not getting a full night's sleep after two years. But that's with Elisabeth. Ophelia slept through from 3 months. Honestly I think she did it cause she wanted a sister. roffle. Like Michael I love babies but I'm way past that phazzzze.
― Nathalie (stevienixed), Monday, 5 October 2009 17:34 (fourteen years ago) link
Two years!!! Don't say that! I'm hoping for the magical 3 month mark. Chloe woke up every 2 hours last night and we're starting to go a bit mad as a result. That said, she has been sleeping much better - but as soon as our confidence rises, we have a really bad night. Oh well, I'm 95% sure we're only having one, so I can appreciate the experience.
― Darin, Monday, 5 October 2009 18:55 (fourteen years ago) link
Archie more or less sleeps through now, and he's only five months. This seems little short of miraculous considering what a terrible sleeper his big brother was (and he still wakes 1 or 2 times a night more often than he sleeps right through...)
But they are lovely so I don't mind!

I love the way you are slowly warming her to Jazz. ;-) Sylvia is such a sweet name. And she looks sooooo sweet.
Two years!!! Don't say that! I'm hoping for the magical 3 month mark.
A bit of hyperbole. she slept through from 14 months or so. Before that it was pure hell. For the longest time she woke up EVERY hour. After that it was actually Ophelia and Elisabeth taking turns waking up. :-) Funnily enough our employee delivered her second baby a month before and also had a hellish time. Every morning we would open the shop and lament over how little sleep we had. :-) Im pretty sure that if Elisabeth had been first, I would have waited with a second child. But y'know I didn't and I'm VERY happy: they differ only about 21 months in age.

Cool! So that's just a template on Picasa?
― tylerw, Wednesday, 21 October 2009 01:27 (fourteen years ago) link
Yes, there are various collage options. For the most flexibility you should probably go with "Picture Stack" (or whatever it's called) and then just drag, reorient and resize your images around, but this is "Mosaic", where you don't have much control over the size, placement or order of anything. Just whacked them in there, added text and there you go.
It's just struck me how the leap from 8 months to 10 months seems quite significant, physically. Faces mature quite a bit in that period, it seems.

It's incredible how Ava-like and Lulu-like they both look from the very start. Tallulah totally wins on comedy expressions, though (still the case, I think).

yeah, those are great. we went with a $10 off-the-rack outfit from kmart that he picked out. last year he didn't really want to wear a costume at all, so we were hoping that by letting him pick one he'd be more into it. which worked pretty well, he did actually go trick or treating for a while. the whole thing still sort of weirds him out tho -- he was excited but also sort of unsure what he was supposed to do and why.

Hallowe'en isn't really a big tradition in the UK (getting bigger though), in fact I think there's a fair amount of resistance to it here as it's perceived as an imported US notion and it's only 6 days before Guy Fawkes' Night. But Pam is American and she's been determined to pumpkinize London one postcode district at a time since 1998. Tallulah's birthday is Nov 2, so that's close enough for a spooky party as far as we're concerned. Two years ago I think only three or four dressed up - this year was full-on ghosts, skeletons, witches and kitties from the SE19 clan. And Pam's spider outfits of course.
Trick-or-treat is simply a four-stop pre-planned sweet-swop in the immediate neighbourhood. No candy until Thanksgiving now.

Hallowe'en isn't really a big tradition in the UK
when i was in manchester in 1991 i remember on oct. 13th seeing a group of kids trying to trick or treat. they rang the buzzer at one house and this pakistani guy came out and listened to their spiel and very patiently said, "we don't celebrate that, because we're muslim. but also, i think you have the wrong night." and the kids were all indignant -- "no, it's halloween!"

Hey MJ - do you use a flash much? If so, any suggestions? The built-in one on my camera is awful. I think I've had decent luck in the past with one that tilted up at 45 degrees, but that was a long time ago...
― schwantz, Sunday, 3 January 2010 16:49 (fourteen years ago) link
I don't use flash all that much with the girls - the only pic on this thread with flash is the fill-flashed shot of Ava in the park from July right at the top.
I got a Canon 420EX Speedlite for a decent price on eBay about 18 months ago, specifically for an upcoming wedding. With a Sto-Fen diffuser on it and firing straight up to a low, white ceiling at the reception, I got reasonably good results but it was beginner's luck really. Only recently have I decided to teach myself how to use the thing properly because I've had wildly inconsistent results since (and Pam really dislikes flash, so even when I get a nice, soft, even light on an indoor shot of the kids it usually doesn't make the Flickr cut). Those bathroom shots from last April (where Ava appears to be throttling her sister) were probably the best flash pics I've taken of the kids. I tend to shoot at 120-135deg tilt (i.e. swivelled round and tilted back so I'm bouncing off the wall high behind me) or straight up but recently I've been shooting more directly (45-60deg) at a lower power and I've been pleasantly surprised at the results. Obviously, outdoor fill-flash has to be direct.
Like lenses, flashes are brand-specific as the metering systems/hotshoe connections differ from system to system. The good Pentax ones seem to be as expensive as their Nikon and Canon equivalents (and I wouldn't really recommend getting the entry-level Pentax (AF200FG) as it neither tilts nor swivels); there seem to be some raves out there for the Metz 48 AF-1 for Pentax but that may not be as available (or as cheap - it's a European brand, I think) in the US. eBay may be your pal here.
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 3 January 2010 18:30 (fourteen years ago) link
So you just use a fast lens and hope nobody moves? That's what I do, but it's so hit-and-miss...
― schwantz, Monday, 4 January 2010 01:49 (fourteen years ago) link
I know what you mean. When I take photos at kids' parties I am slightly envious of the parents snapping away with flash because, as harsh as their photos are going to look, at least they'll be sharp and in focus and you'll be able to tell who is who. Mine tend towards the atmospheric! I do get a reasonable number of nice, casual f/1.8-f/2.8 shallow-DoF portraits though, with no flash to draw attention to myself, so the kids just get on with watching the entertainer or Santa or the cartoon...
A flash certainly takes the lottery aspect out of it - as long as you figure out how to bounce the light to yr best advantage and set up the camera so there's a good balance in the exposure between strobe and ambient. That all-important picture as they blow out the candles on the cake though - it's dark but you wouldn't want flash for that, would you?

I'm trying to scan all my mom's negatives and slides, which is a crazy, lifelong project.The ones I just put up were from a Crossroads Africa program, which is where she met Kennedy, and my dad.
I think the one crappy thing about the Pentax is the AF system, which really makes the pictures a focus lottery. I just shoot tons of shots, and usually some come out clean. Sometimes, though, I just get a big pile of out-of-focus stuff. Maybe the newer Pentax cameras will fix that, or maybe I'll have to make the jump to Canon/Nikon.
― schwantz, Monday, 4 January 2010 15:47 (fourteen years ago) link
That's a shame about the autofocus on Pentax - I didn't realise it was that inferior. A lot depends on the lens but I would've thought the 50/1.4 was about as good as it got.
I've been really spoiled with the 28/1.8 on my Canon - it nails focus, even with off-centre points, in absurdly low light. With lesser lenses, it helps to have an AF-assist light; the Canon bodies annoyingly dropped this feature with the move to digital, so the AF assist on my flash is useful. Does the Pentax have a light on the body?
Pam got me a secondhand mid-'90s Vivitar 100mm f/3.5 Macro this Xmas (seeing as the Canon, Sigma and Tamron equivalents are way beyond our budget); built like a toy, sticky manual focus, but really great optically. Where it struggles though is AF - I'd forgotten what it was like to hear a lens go through the gears, desperately hunting for something it can lock on.
― Michael Jones, Monday, 4 January 2010 16:06 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah, I think Canon has the AF system nailed. Of course, with an f/1.4 lens, almost everything is out-of-focus, so I understand a little churn, especially when the kids are on the move. How does AF assist work? The camera says it supports AF assist, via the built-in flash.
― schwantz, Monday, 4 January 2010 17:22 (fourteen years ago) link
AF-assist - with my old EOS 10 film body, and with the 420EX flash unit, it projects a little criss-cross pattern of red light onto your target for the phase-detect AF system to lock into. No good if you're trying to be discreet, of course, and I'm not sure how well it works if you're not focusing with the centre point. Using the pop-up flash for AF assist is much more intrusive, as it does a little low-intensity white strobe thing.
I imagine the Pentax 50/1.4 is a bit soft wide-open, maybe even as far as f/2.8 or f/4 - most of them are (only the megabucks primes, like the Canon 85/1.2L, 135/2.0L, etc, are sharp at wide apertures), so even with correct focus, pictures can look a bit fuzzy. But you don't really have the luxury of stopping down if you're trying to freeze motion with a high shutter speed indoors. Does the K200D have various AF modes - like one-shot, servo, etc?
― Michael Jones, Monday, 4 January 2010 17:40 (fourteen years ago) link
I try and use the one-shot mode (otherwise it will hunt forEVER). I also just choose the single-point mode, to avoid confusing the sensor. I guess it's just the deal with the 1.4 lens. If it had better high-ISO performance (less noise), I would just shoot at 800 ISO, I guess, which would help. It might just be that at 1.4, only a tiny bit of the picture is in-focus.
Maybe one of the external flash units has the AF assist lamp...
Thanks for the advice!

― koogs, Monday, 1 February 2010 09:41 (fourteen years ago) link
Yes, the clock is good, but Mae was distracted by chocolate/twix pretzels nearby and wouldn't stand under it when the bubbles started. So, for information - and non-Brit readers who might wonder wtf we are going on about - here's a non-child related photo of it...http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4321297881_2cc2656821.jpgI quite like the other sculpture though. I have no idea what it's about, I think the artist just likes hares. And hares would obviously hang out with minataurs. Mae and her cousin thought it quite hilarious of course and giggled about it for quite some time.

no, i didn't dare! i could tell it was expensive but i had no idea how much. and actually i still don't - i have tried to google its price but found nothing! which must put it into serious yikes territory. i mean, prices of gadgets must be the most googleable thing imaginable, yet it's like the internet barely acknowledges this thing can be bought or sold.

Shakey - Go to the photo page, click on "Share this" Then grab the HTML/BB code. If you grab the BB Code, you can paste it right into the "Add a Post" dialog. If you grab the HTML, paste it in, and then hit the "Convert Simple HTML to BBcode" button. I do the HTML option, so I don't get a bunch of extra links showing up for every picture.

Lovely. That 17/2.8 is quite a nifty portrait lens on the Oly PEN, isn't it?
So, they're now both at school... Lulu in Nursery, Ava in Year 1. Ava looks like she's worried lil sis is going to cramp her style on the morning walk. I took today off and, for three hours this morning, we were free of kids. Incredible.

I'm so torn between not wanting my kids to ever change/grow up and rampant curiosity about what they'll be like at Ned's kids' ages.
― I saw him in convulsive throws I said "I'll have one of those" (sunny successor), Friday, 1 October 2010 14:28 (thirteen years ago) link
Sunny: yes, Lulu couldn't bear leaving Ava behind at school back in the Nursery days. I think Pam is relishing the new-found freedom of being childless 8:40-11:40am; this morning she chaired a PTA meeting and planned the Xmas Fair.
And I know exactly what you mean about being torn between wanting them to be this way forever but also being excited about what comes next.

Goodness, she's a little girl now. And they look like pretty neat and considered circles and curves for 17 months! As recently as this spring, Lulu's version of drawing was still mostly trying to fuse writing implement and paper into a single compound through sheer pressure and frictional heat.

Veronica was given some new sunglasses by her childminder last week as a leaving present (she's now back fulltime with mum now that she's on maternity leave) and *refuses* to take them off, even in the bath and when she goes to bed. We have to creep in to her room once she's dropped off to remove them. Probably specs-envy because both parents are specky four-eyeses. She'll doubtless need her own prescription pair soon enough :(.

Ha ha ha....NO.
The number of photos of the girls that don't make the cut because, regardless of how much I'm blurring the background with a wide aperture, there's still so much CRAP everywhere that it gives you a headache to look at it. And part of the reason we got rid of the Nissan Micra was because it was really beginning to gross us out. Everything is in chaos about 80% of the time. But that's not all down to the under-sevens...

Let's say we had our annus horribilis - he was diagnosed a rare syndrome, suffered several ischemic strokes that left him semi-paralyzed and underwent brain surgery twice. Now he's miraculously recovering and, while there is still a lot to do, we hope things will be better in the future. I guess I'm posting these photos only to celebrate the fact he's a tough kid and we somehow soldiered on.

Yeah, there's a little photobooth in the lobby. You can choose from various backgrounds like Old West, Batman, cutesy hearts stuff, etc. My son just wanted the sepia.
There is nothing like a kid in a box.

Yeah. This pic killed me when I saw it on instagram. <3 BELLY.
Also, full confession - PP, when you posed the couple most recent pics of Bepps on IG I seriously didn't recognize her. This is in part because when the hell did she get so grown up also maybe because of the blue eyes. I seriously thought that was your niece or something.

Don't want to pull the thread too far down, but our family suffered a loss this weekend.
Veruca was like a big sister to our two kids. And, she was mine and Kate's first joint effort. (The cats were grandfathered in with the marriage.)
http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/6535/52659310151429879000311.jpg
Fortunately, we took a zillion pictures of her. It would be difficult to forget our pup.

OK so because I'm being all TRUE CONFESSIONS today here's another one, PP (and SS!). When you posted about Veruca on FB I read what you wrote out loud to RS and about 1/3 of the way through doing so I my voice started cracking and I totally choked up. I'm really sorry to hear about your sweet pup. <3
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Tuesday, 29 May 2012 15:55 (eleven years ago) link
How are the kids doing? Do they really understand? I imagine that would be really hard to explain.
We were the ones who took it the hardest. When we later asked Beeps what she thought about it all, her response was "I didn't know grown-ups could cry."

As a matter of fact, he still has one pair of Spiderman socks that he hasn't worn through. He's started wearing them again as he has recently started reading Spiderman comics (and writing his own). He's eagerly anticipating this summer's movie, but is skeptical of the need to reboot the whole franchise.

That kitten has the worst gas of any animal I've ever owned, and with all respect to the dead, keep in mind that we were living with an elderly three-legged Great Dane with cancer just a few months ago.

Love that bike photo! Striders are pretty awesome, L had one until a couple of weeks ago when he graduated to a pedal bike. My only beef with them is that the fork isn't welded to the tube it sits in, and frankly I have no idea what was holding it in place but eventually L's fork just basically fell out and I had to put a nut and bolt through the hole that's helpfully provided.. but it needs tightening every week or so, otherwise the steering gets wobbly.
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 20 September 2012 20:10 (eleven years ago) link
yeah we have to tighten sylvie's regularly. but she is crazy about it and is surprisingly good at riding -- surprisingly because she's kind of clumsy when it comes to a lot of other things.
― tylerw, Thursday, 20 September 2012 20:14 (eleven years ago) link
bike pic is great- there are many great ones on the thread.
i just bought a superzoom and am trying to learn how to take pictures. it's been a good distraction while i recover from surgery, but the surgery was on my hand, which makes manipulation of the camera hard.
― backed by regular small people (Hunt3r), Thursday, 20 September 2012 20:39 (eleven years ago) link
Love the bike pic! After using the Striders, my boys learned how to ride real bikes, sans training wheels, in about 5 minutes (when they turned 4!).
― schwantz, Thursday, 20 September 2012 20:42 (eleven years ago) link
same here, first kid used likeabike from 2-3, when i put him on the bike i just got him to coast down a gentle hill and experiment w pedaling.
second kid rejected likeabike in favor of training wheels, took her way longer, like an extra season.
― backed by regular small people (Hunt3r), Thursday, 20 September 2012 20:52 (eleven years ago) link
yeah hard to tell how long she'll be on the strider and how the transition to a real bike will go ... her balance is pretty much all there, guess it's just figuring out how to pedal.
― tylerw, Thursday, 20 September 2012 20:55 (eleven years ago) link
OMG, August's sitting up already?!
A whizzed around on his balance bike but when we bought him a pedal bike he was a teeny bit too small for it and it put him off it for ages. When he finally agreed to have a go on it he was off and away after about 5 mins of slowly trying it out.
I have no idea where my babies went

Adding to the bike madness. It's a pedal bike with training wheels. I advocated for a balance bike, but economics ultimately won out when we found this for $30 at a consignment shop. She's been watching her brother zoom around and trying to pick up other big kids' bmx bikes when we're at the playground. Not pedalling yet, but we push her around on it and she gets the biggest grin on her face.

It is (cheesy) classic, silly, makes no sense...okay I never liked those photos but had to do it anyway because I have a baby and a giant stockpot. Took five minutes to set up and another five to photograph. That's our floor, not the counter top.

Aw, Sylvie had a doll called Tallulah.
My Tallulah gave her sister a big plush monkey on Sunday night - christened Monko - to soften the blow of losing Monk. She'd bought it with her own money and had been saving it for Ava's birthday. On Tuesday I retrieved Monk from Network Rail's offices at Kings X station (and dropped off some chocolates off for the staff at the bookshop who'd found it) . That evening Monk met Monko for the first time - Lulu tried to formally introduce them but got a serious eye-roll from Ava. "They're BROTHERS, Lulu - I *think* they've met before, don't you?"

My little sister once threw a fish-shaped coin bag into the seal tank at Sea World. (It's more of a submerged arena where observers can stand around a round wall on street level and look down at the crazy dudes.)
My sister started bawling (she was 3 or 4) while the seals started bouncing the purse around to each other like it was nose soccer. Employees had this big long net and whenever they'd stick it in on one side, the seals would all bounce over to the other side.
Finally, some dude in a rubber suit gets in there and I guess the seals knew at this point that the fun was over because they dropped the purse.
Guy hands it back over to my mother and it smelled awful. My sister likely lost it within a month of getting home.

She shares that room with her sister, of course.
This is an old picture - from when Lulu graduated from cot to bed in 2009 - but the bedroom is much the same now. We've since extended the right-hand bed for Ava.

how old is she? our 2-year-old loves bikes, but she's got training wheels which basically means she loves sitting on her bike more than riding it.
― how's life, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 08:56 (ten years ago) link
Marvellous. We've been very lax with getting the kids out on their bikes. They're not nearly as proficient as most of their peers so we've got some catching up to do. Of course, they could just be like their dad and unable to ride a bike at 44.
― Michael Jones, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 10:16 (ten years ago) link
i think she is a bit early for doing this, she turns 4 in august -- but she has been using a strider bike since last summer, so she's been able to balance easily for a while now, it was just figuring out how to pedal, get herself going etc that she needed to do now. still working on that last bit -- we have to push her a bit, but it's only been three days now. really recommend the strider bike approach over the training wheels though!

My mom was a ridiculous photographer. When she died, I inherited like 50,000 or more negatives, slides, and prints. I'm working my way through the negatives and slides with a Nikon Coolscan, but it's slow going. B&W is especially tough, since the auto dust removal algorithms don't work on them.

What a treasure trove!
Here are a couple - not by me - from school. Welsh sprinter Christian Malcolm came by for sports day and, pro that he is, sat there for photos with *every* kid in the school! The guy is five-nine (and had PBs under 10.1 and 20.1 back in his prime), so hopefully an inspiration to Ava as what can be achieved with relatively short pins...

It's ladybug season in our neighborhood. We are checking out a ladybug that she caught and put on her arm, accidentally killing it in the process. She is becoming concerned with its lack of movement and I am trying to convince her that the ladybug is just hiding in her shell because she is a little shy.

I know what you mean. I get quite the pang when I look at old photos. That little person has gone, never to return. And Lulu was a laff riot at 2. But it does (mostly) get better and better.

But still that was pretty god damn cute so here you go.

Yes, yearly here. It's nice to be able to pull up a photo of the girls at a particular age via the appropriate Flickr set on the phone. It's actually easier via the app than on the website, I think.
They find old videos of themselves incredibly funny. This one (from Ava's 5th birthday) went down particularly well over the weekend (made temporarily public)...

I've settled on breaking the first year up into three month intervals; 0 to 3, 3 to 6, etc. I'll start yearly galleries after the 1st year. Maybe I'll combine the 1st year at some point. I don't know why I think about this so much.
Currently using smugmug, with a custom domain. That seems to work well for the family. I password protect it and they don't have to sign up for accounts to view any thing. They can buy prints. I can hotlink to different sizes of photos is forums. It's nice and has been worth the cost.
― Jeff, Monday, 24 February 2014 11:39 (ten years ago) link
I've always wanted to do something private and password-protected, rather than just throwing everything up on facebook. :/

Sunny's been at a work conference since Saturday. We're picking her up at the airport tonight.
Six very full days, just the three of us. I didn't know it last week, but we had nothing to be nervous about. We got out the door on-time to school each morning. We ate our dinners at night. Beeps has been behaving much higher than her seven years as I've tucked in Hammer each night and got him to sleep while she's fended for herself. (By lying in Mama's spot on the couch and watching TV, some hard work there.) I figured DHS (Dept of Human Services in this state, though the other one as well) would be called by now, but instead, we've got a relatively clean house, some full bellies, and a family that very much misses our matriarch.
Welcome back home to the Batcave, SS.

It was really surreal, hadn't put much thought into it until that moment tbf. one of those pillars of parenting that everyone gets/has to pass through I guess. Thought about it for days, what it was like for my parents? What big changes are ahead? What level of control are we losing and is it worth it? How will he get along with kids? Will he make good friends? Have I taught him enough? Is he gonna be a punk?
Now I KINDA see why people home teach!

She came home from daycare the other day having been introduced to Power Rangers by one of the other kids. It's probably the first media/art/culture that she has embraced that we did not introduce to her, and that's a weird feeling. But we will support her in her Power Ranger fandom as long as she's interested.

I'm admittedly envious. Francie will join Ivy and I in the recliner on weekend mornings when Jeff has gone running before feeing the cat, and will put up with some baby interaction in the service of maybe, just maybe charming me into getting up and feeding her, but Francie's just not the nose-rubbing kind of cat.
This is the best documentation of their interactions we have, and it about sums it up: excited baby, wary kitty.

carl agatha, they are usually not buds. she is fascinated by charlie parker, mostly because i'm always making her look at him, and rubbing her feet in his fur when he's asleep on my desk. but he has not seemed a fan of her thus far - he doesn't like her crying, and she has supplanted him in my partner's affections (he idolizes my partner) and now he's no longer to sleep in our room, lie on our bed, etc. so there's been tension. but when this pic happened, i'd just taking marin for a long walk in the sling, and we came back to find charlie and my partner snuggled up on the sofa, and now it was marin's time to look jealous. and i leaned in with marin so she could see her mum, and charlie got off her lap and walked over to marin, "kissed" her on the nose and scampered off, like "it's only fair that it's your turn now."
so hopefully a corner has been turned. this morning, as i took marin downstairs to play just before dawn, so her mum could get an hour or so more sleep, we stopped off in my office where charlie was standing and looking out the window. marin leaned in and actually attempted to stroke him, and he sort of went with it, so yay.
charlie's brother, charlie mingus, has some serious ptsd issues going on (they're both rescue cats, parker's a lot more confident though, evenings with mingus involve him jumping on the sofa, snuggling in hard and really enjoying a few strokes, then dashing off in terror), but he's already given her his seal of approval - ie, he head-butted her bottom while sarah was feeding her.

Pam is looking for a high-end compact / compact system camera, and the Fuji X models are definitely contenders. I have one friend who never touches his Canon 7D now he has an X100S.
Re: films...
Ava's favourite film ever is The Book Of Life.Lulu's is Ghostbusters.I think Lukas Moodysson's We Are The Best! is top 3 for both of them (they repeat the song(s), not the swearing, thankfully).They are at the age now where they both claim to hate Frozen.

We're at that stage too. We own the movie and watched it constantly for about a week and spent much of the summer listening to the soundtrack. But right now Abby is just into having her hair braided over her shoulder like Elsa and eating ice.

She doesn't read very much yet, but lately one of her favorite things to do is to page through grown-up books and pretend to read them out loud. This is a book about medieval warfare that her brother got for christmas.

I can't remember whether Ivy was having a case of the almost-toddler irrationally angries or almost-toddler irrationally exciteds, but I was hanging out with her on the couch the other day while she exuberantly (or furiously - it's hard to tell the difference sometimes) swatted at my face and when Jeff came into the room he was like, "Uh, your face is bleeding" because Ivy had managed to take chunks of skin out of my lip and my chin. I hadn't even noticed under the flurry of baby blows. So I guess my point is that IME they will soon stop trying to pull your face off and start succeeding.

― a cake of three ingredients (stevie), Wednesday, 11 February 2015 16:59 (nine years ago) link
omg the glasses thing
It's constant. If she's angry, she'll grab them off my face and throw them. If she's excited, she'll grab them off my face and grin at me impishly. If I think we're going to be doing a lot of face to face interaction, I just take them off now. Maybe that's why I don't see all the facial injuries coming.

J has already pulled a chunk out of my lip once with his cute little talons. I try to do a better job of trimming fingernails now so that I don't lose an eye.

Cecil just turned three months, and in the last week has transformed from being colickly as hell to generally pleasant most of the time. People said it's often very sudden at the three month mark but I didn't expect this level of change this fast.
He can also roll from his stomach to is back, which we thought was awesome but other people with kids looked shocked and sad as they know this is the beginning of the end in terms of being able to leave him knowing he won't move.
There's a decent chance we'll be in Chicago at some point in July depending on travel plans.

Hey can I ask you guys a question? One of my oldest friends is having her first baby! :D Despite being in the other side of 35 nearly none of my friends have kids so I don't have a lot of experience with this. I want to send her a present for the shower. I already got an adorable outfit but I want to send something else too. I figure that she'll get mostly stuff for the baby but she lives in AZ and it's going to be 100 degress by the time she's in her last month. Would it be really weird if I sent a gift certificate for pre-natal massage or some sort of mama pampering thing? Do you think she'd rather just want baby stuff?
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 17:55 (nine years ago) link
Oh! She's having a girl I also got her this alphabet book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0872866831/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0872866831&linkCode=as2&tag=openculture-20&linkId=CBY52NKUMALWLTHS also totally bought one for myself because HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 17:57 (nine years ago) link
I think a prenatal massage gift certificate would be great if you know she would like that. If you're not sure, Target or Amazon gift cards are always going to work.
― from batman to balloon dog (carl agatha), Wednesday, 22 April 2015 18:03 (nine years ago) link
Or you could get her a Sophie.
I'm not a parent but I bet she would be very, very happy to get something that lets her know you're thinking of her as her and not just as New Mom. I've bought things like that for pregnant friends. Or after the birth, nice bath stuff for the baby and even nicer bath stuff NOT for the baby but for the parent(s).
― ljubljana, Wednesday, 22 April 2015 18:04 (nine years ago) link
Depending on what their needs are, I don't think a mama-pampering thing is inappropriate - it's sort of a cruel truism that once the baby comes nobody gives a shit about the mother anymore. That being said, baby accoutrements can get quite expensive and if there's a registry or they've specifically asked for certain things then I would say respect their priorities.

^^^^ Yeah! That was my thought process! I do think she'd like the massage and I know her sister who lives out there so I could even ask her for a recommendation for a spa. I like Sophie and I LOVE Ivy :D.
Thanks for the tips, guys. ― Οὖτις - I emailed her earlier about a registry but her sister didn't mention on on the shower invite so I'm guessing there isn't one.

I think Carl's OTM.
Opinions may vary, but I know sunny's thinking when given a certificate for a massage was, "oh right, I've got plenty of time to do things like that now. I'll just pencil in a time for after my acceptance speech in Oslo."

I don't know if it's teething or we're doing something wrong but I was getting way more regular, predictable sleep with a 3 month old than with a 5 month old. We had a glorious couple of weeks where he'd go to bed at 7, get up for a bottle and change at 11, then again at 3, and wake up for good at 8am.
Now he goes to sleep between 6:30 and 8:30, wakes up fussing an hour later, gets rocked back to sleep, wakes up again 90 minutes later, eats, falls back asleep, then basically seems to wake up every 30 to 60 minutes for some bullshit reason or another through the rest of the night. I feel like I'm going to die.

so Marin's been going to a child-minder's 3 days a week since Sarah went back to work a month ago, and it was really rough at first, and drop-offs were teary affairs that were painful to then go off to work from until literally this week - but she seems to have a pretty amazing time while there, and I am loving the pix the child-minder takes of her.https://igcdn-photos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/t51.2885-15/11379073_384973061706583_1735613933_n.jpg
She is *really into books at the moment, too, though rarely patient enough to let me finish reading one to her.https://igcdn-photos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/t51.2885-15/11357282_499883680166096_398888721_n.jpg
― NotKnowPotato (stevie), Friday, 5 June 2015 15:29 (eight years ago) link
My lord she is so cute.
Are there other kids at the child-minder's? I had a hard time taking Ivy to daycare at first, too, but now she loooooves it and it helps her to be very social and learn to share (although last week she expressed her displeasure that her favorite teacher was paying attention to another kid by biting that kid, so there's still work to be done), which is key since she's an only. So even though it's tough, I think that's a really good benefit to childcare.
Also, and I didn't believe this at first, but it is really nice to have some kid-free time. I'm working, so it's not like I'm getting wasted and watching horror movies or anything, but it's nice to be able to focus on something other than the urgent and inscrutable needs of an 18 month old for a few hours each day.
― from batman to balloon dog (carl agatha), Friday, 5 June 2015 16:03 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, lots of other kids, and she's always been crazy about other kids, so she now has a bunch of older "siblings" to hang with. Also they have lots of food, because Marin is an eater, and I don't think any of you understand just how much of a bottomless pit she is. I picked her up the other day and she gazed into the child-minder's kitchen and started saying "mmmmmm!" because she spotted a fruit bowl with some bananas in it.

Can't remember if we talked about it here, but the first few weeks of F going to nursery were traumatic, and left us all in bits. And now he's pretty delighted with things. Still not too wild about other kids, but I think it's mostly because he's still finding his feet and they're all high-speed.
― stet, Friday, 5 June 2015 16:40 (eight years ago) link
Yeah Ivy is in the process of moving to the toddler room which needs to happen ASAP because she basically mauls little babies with kisses and attention now. I never thought she'd be too rough for anyone, she was always so wee, but her love is intense, physical, and slobbery.

She's pretty much unimpressed by tv as a whole so far, which might sound like a humblebrag but oh my god how i wish she'd zone out for thirty minutes in front of peppa pig every now and again.
Also they have a big box of off-model Snoopy toys at out local library for kids to play with, I was clearly much more excited about this than she was.

Peppa Pig is actually awesome, agreed. I especially enjoyed one Ella watched recently where the plot involved the Pig family, some ducks and some wolves being ferried back and forth over a river in a comedy reenactment of the old logic problem.
And it only twigged the other day that Mr Rabbit is a Welsh rabbit

Ah, gotcha! I didn't even know that existed. Was going to say I've got the 10 watt Pathfinder and it can still be a little much in my small house. Really want to get my daughter a drum kit, because she gravitates toward that section of any music store we end up in, but I can't find anywhere to put it.

Schwantz, you are doing things the right way! Lulu is pretty No Wave right now. If she breaks as many strings as Arto Lindsay, it's coming out of her allowance.
The first tune she tried to play on it was Dead Beat Descendant but we couldn't remember how to do it (I am not a musician; fortunately, she has her mother...).

We used to have basically an entire umbrella stand full of big sticks. My oldest kid would find a special stick every time we went hiking in the state park, and there was no way that I was allowed to chuck them out the back door or use them for kindling or whatever. Eventually he got into whittling though so it all worked itself out.
My little kid brings home smaller treasures, like the one in your saxophone. She doesn't care about them as much as her brother did though, so I usually just end up finding them when I clean under the couch or whatever.
― how's life, Monday, 23 May 2016 13:52 (seven years ago) link
Stick Man is *amazing, tbh - the animated version is pretty cool too. My daughter treats every stick she finds like a Stick Man action figure, and starts saying stuff like "I'm taking you home to my stick children three..." She found one the other week and I swear she recited almost the entire book on the walk home, she was so excited.
I fired up the bbq this weekend and was v tempted to throw a couple of 'em on to keep it burning, tbh.

Wow! A gigging musician! And my daughter just got into Pokemon heavily in the last month. I had to learn the rules for the card game yesterday as she picked up a couple decks and wants me to play with her now.

That's a prime reading spot!
Lulu is obsessed with Pokemon - she sets her schoolmates Pokemon homework, talks of little else, plays Brick Bronze on Roblox, commandeers my phone to play "Go" (it's my fault for getting that app last summer)...
Ava has fallen in with a good bunch of new pals at secondary school - budding musicians, kind of nerd-cool. This is the point at which friends because more the focus, not parents.
