Winter Wonderland

Winter Wonderland

I’m a little light on new material… but apparently have plenty of pictures of Jake. Hoping to get out tomorrow to get some new shots.

Happy Day

Happy Day

Sorry, I missed yesterday. We had a fantastic birthday party for Jake’s 1st and by the time everything was cleaned up, I was totally beat. For his first cake experience,…

Godparents

Godparents

Jake’s godparents, after his baptism. Yes, that’s right. Baptism. Yes, I’m Quaker. No, we don’t believe in ceremonial baptism. Yes, I acceded to this because Sue’s half of the family…

Standing Man

Standing Man

Yep, I missed yesterday. We’re at the point of the season where there’s a ton of extra housework to either get ready for or clean up from some event at…

Jakeberry

Jakeberry

I didn’t have my flash along, so the white balance is completely ruined here. I had to settle for composition (and ISO 1600).

Teething Is…

Teething Is…

… not having to say you’re sorry for carrying around a crinkly star toy in your mouth. Too bad the camera was set for ISO 1600 when I grabbed it…

Proud

Proud

Proud grandmother, showing off grandson to all that will listen. Not to toot my own horn (because I had nothing to do with it): I think this is the best…

Secret Messages

Secret Messages

Unfortunately, now Sue is sick as well. Not a good day/night in our household. However, Jake has started leaving me secret messages in his morning Cherrios. Or he wants them…

Special Hat

Special Hat

Another shot from my dad’s house yesterday. The hat is my dad’s (once can tell because of the safety pin in the brim — but that’s a story for another…

Born To Play

Born To Play

Jake was listening to me play harp this morning, and as long as I stayed away from the G harmonica (which is lower in pitch than my others) he was…

Somber

Somber

We went for several long car trips today, and Jake was a trooper. This is a shot of him fighting off sleep. I found myself playing with selective colorization this…

What Now?

What Now?

Finally, Dell fixed my laptop! Not surprisingly most of the shots on my camera are of Jake. This one is my favorite. He can now sit himself up, and I…

Chocolate Cake

Chocolate Cake

Not the best shot in the world, but it’s the best subject. We spent the evening watching Bill Cosby’s “Himself,” in which Cosby talks about feeding his children chocolate cake…

Old Dog Blue

Old Dog Blue

Again, not the shot I wanted to post today. We visited friends and a great idea for a shot of Jake just didn’t come out (even though it looks great…

Puma

Puma

I’m finally starting to get caught back up on all of the photos I’ve taken in the last three months but done nothing with (now that I’ve freed up some…

Eyes

Eyes

Jake, sporting his beautiful eyes. Believe it or not, this isn’t a post-processed effect; it’s an overexposed picture.

Mommy Time

Mommy Time

Okay, that’s enough holding out on the Jake pictures. This one is from his third day. Mom and son, spending some time together…

Bands

Bands

Pandering to the audience again (and due to a lack of hard drive space to manipulate pictures — D’oh!), this is another shot of Jake. It’s a little hard to…

Teeny

Teeny

I’m apparently incapable of helping myself. But it’s a really, really cute photo so I feel less bad about it. And my family members are, of course, bugging me for…

Sleepy

Sleepy

By popular demand, another picture of my favorite person. I love the way the light plays across Jake’s head in this shot.

Parenthood

Parenthood

Please welcome into this world Jakob Emanuel Talbutt-Bauer. He was born at 12:22 AM, weighing 7 lbs. 6 oz. and measuring 21 inches. Mother and son are resting comfortably. Dad…
