I maybe shouldn’t have run to get the camera first…

…But I couldn’t help it. It was just too funny: the sound of catfood falling, and then his immediate wail of utter woe. Catfood. Everywhere. He could not be consoled until I got the dustpan and brush and showed him how to sweep it up. Such a sweetie, he is.

    I love those moments! Always a good idea to run for the camera!

    I wonder sometimes, about the camera.
    I had K bring it to the hospital when he brought my things last week, and then taking the pictures seemed such an invasion.

    But this? this is too cute…and all’s well that ends well.

    oh*my*GOODness! :) this is painful and cute all wrapped up into one. catching a moment of pain on film sort of ‘bottles’ the pain and even now when i look at pics of babies crying (myself or my siblings) it still sort of hurts. hmmmm.

    this pic though reminds me of when my dad spilled fresh blueberries all over the floor (his favorite with cream and sugar) and i just knew he was soooo disappointed but i RAN to get the camera too!!

    Such a big boy, wanting to help clean up! He’s too cute and looks much taller than last time’s pics… and his hair looks darling.

    This is great, just what I needed! He’s so damn cute ~ I love that he wanted to help and yes, I would have been running for the camera myself!

    Aw…it was probably around naptime, too. Poor guy! And he’s grown so much–it’s all the toddling and running!

    There have been several times when I’ve run to the camera first instead to the aid of my child. LOL.

    Such a sweet little guy. For some reason Bean looks a bit like a british chap to me in this picture.
