Three Month Pictures
Well, it was an adventure, but we did manage to get three month professional pictures made today. It was a taxing day for Daniel and his little village of caretakers. Poppy and Mama got him ready and took him for the pictures. He was pretty upset at the end, so we made a run for it and Papa showed up in time for us to tag team with him for him to pick out the pictures we want and pay and so forth.
Daniel had a mini-baby-breakdown after we got him home. We first did several things to cool him down and then started on things to console him. We suspect that the new drug he is taking for his acid reflux, Zegerid, is causing this extreme nervousness. But there is nothing we can do. He has to take a drug and this one has fewer side effects than the Zantac did.
Part of our cooling strategy was a bath. This mostly just got Daniel more upset (he usually enjoys baths) but he was settled down once Poppy got him on the changing table. Poppy took these pictures. This is Daniel’s new favorite pass time. He makes a fist with his right hand and moves it closer and further from his face repeatedly while staring at it. It is the cutest thing. He can occupy himself for 15 mintues at a time this way.
Alas, poor fisty! I knew him, Horatio!
