The Adventures of Soëlie Anne: Soëlie, Meet Mr. Moose

[wayfaringwordhack]

The days and weeks are long when J is gone away on deployment. I miss him and his help around the house, and he misses seeing Soëlie everyday. So, when he is posted someplace that has Internet service, I send him daily updates, in photos, so he doesn't miss the sprout sprouting. A couple of examples:

 

Soëlie has company:

Hungry Moose:
 

 

Yes, I probably spend too much time playing with Photoshop when I ought to be sewing, knitting, cleaning; but Photoshopping is possible with a baby on the lap.  The other things, not so much.

Oh those are adorable! (As is Soëlie. She has such a great range of expressions.)

Yeah, with the gamut of expressions, I can never stop at one photo, hence the strips when trying to decide which one to send to J. :P

Those things are crying out to be preserved for eventual publication...if nothing else, to frighten the boys when she begins dating. *g*

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

*lol* right on both counts!

Awwww.

We Make People Melt...cool slogan, non? :D

Her expression in the last one is so perfect!

And she does look worried in the one where he's eaten her hat!

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

hehe. Yeah, that smile is to die for. :P

I think Soëlie needs her own baby photo blog!

These are so cute and funny. :)

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

hehe. Yeah, I prolly have enough material for one. :P

Love love love love!!!!

Thanks. and I love your icon. Do you know that Soëlie's middle name is in honor of Anne of Green Gables? My in-laws said: "Oh, Ann is such a pretty name. Wewish you would spell it without the E."

Ha! "Nope," I replied, thinking of Anne saucily adding the E to her name when she gets in trouble in school. :P

Soooo adorable. And I bet J appreciates getting them while he's away on deployment. How long is he gone this time?

And, seriously? You *oughtn't* be doing anything other than enjoying your new baby and being a Mom. So I'd say you're succeeding :)

It does tickle him to get his daily dose. :P

This time was two weeks, but he got to place two of his days off back-to-back and come home last weekend.

And seriously? I *LOVE* your philosophy. :D

Oh she is so, so cute! I bet J loves getting these pictures. *g*

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

Thanks, and yep, they make his day. or so he says. ;)

We're blessed to have you! Can't wait to see you!

A-DOR-able. I bet Papa is thrilled to receive them.

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

YEP, and he's even more thrilled to be back at the house with us now! (And we are thrilled, too! I got to go back to sleep at 6:30 a.m. while J took her upstairs.)

[pjthompson]

Yay for Papa being home!

Mom, btw, loved those "comics" and she loved the Glamour Baby with sunglasses picture so much it's going up on the photo wall.

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

Soëlie's made the photo wall! Woot. Tell your mom she has impeccable taste. :D

[pjthompson]

She does! (We have to buy the frame first, though.)
