I wanted to share some cute pictures taken by my friend Lynette. She isn't professional (she's a fantastic nurse), but she did a very good job. I think this one is my favorite. We just went to the Bountiful Temple last Sunday evening. The lighting was perfect (she never really used a flash) and baby was fairly compliant, although most of our time was spent trying to make him smile. It didn't always work. He liked looking at his daddy, though! I really like the angle on this one. I think I'll put it on my wall. There are more in my Picasa album. I'm much happier with these than with the only family shot I got from Amber at our last shoot. I'll go to Amber again for pics of the little man, but not for the family. It is about time for Halloween pictures. I still don't know what he should be! Suggestions? By the way, Mrs. X came downstairs to apologize. I really appreciated that she admitted she was at fault for letting Benji fall. I told her I understand, but I didn't say that I'd be comfortable with her watching him anymore. She did ask me how many days per week I could watch Becca, and I said one. I think that will be okay (it's way better than four, and whatever her reasons, I hope she'll be grateful enough for one day that she won't space it off). She even offered to pre-pay. I'm okay with that. She did say that this is her 'last chance' with the Navy Reserve: if she doesn't lose 20 lbs this month, they are kicking her out. That's a lot of stress, but it just might be good for her, too. I don't wish her ill; I hope she gains some perspective.
