Speaking of milestones

[wayfaringwordhack]

I forgot to post a couple of weeks ago that Soëlie started crawling in earnest, two days shy of being 8 months old.  Instead of wiggling and pulling and rocking herself along, she now hightails it around on all fours, making for interesting times in the Faure household, times which will be even more interesting now that I have to pack and foresee all manner of things lying about... Oh, and did I mention the two flights of stairs this apartment boasts?

Yeah, fun times.

(The Sprout being a goofball during the passport photo session we did while picnicking down by the river, a session which ended up being a waste of time since we printed the wrong format and had to pay to have them redone in Paris. Argh.)

 

No, this post is not an excuse to put up photos of my daughter; why would you say that? ;)

Middle one, bottom row: she's got a great skeptical face. As well as a great sunshine face. :-D As far as I'm concerned, you can post as many pictures of her as you like.

I definitely thought bottom middle looked skeptical too!

*lol* I was half-thinking it looked like a possession in the making. Glad you two see simple skepticism. :P

Whew, I don't feel so much like I've been photo-spamming my flist now. :D

I agree!

So many expressions! She looks like she's understanding and commenting on, from left to right, and from top to bottom:

a song she likes, the way a cool breeze feels, a complicated math formula,
eating something bitter, the merits of futures trading in bundled mortgages, being called a pretty girl

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

I'd be skeptical about bundled mortgages, too. :}

Too bad the bankers weren't, back before 2008!

I'm basing this on the very few pics I've seen of you, but the resemblance in the Sprout to me is just uncanny.

Hehe. Most people see Julien. And his grandmother had this to say this past weekend:

She's the spitting image of her father! Looks just like him, in every single detail. Don't see her mother at all. That's a good thing thing, right, Miquela?

*lol*

May be fail as passport photos, but such a delightful character study. I really love these series, looking at them makes me grin!

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

She is a very expressive baby, and her smile never fails to make me smile in return.

not easy

To pick a "normal" picture of that character of daughter we have...
There should be room for more than one pic one those american passports!!!

Lol. Yeah, too bad they have all of those boring rules, too, when taking an "acceptable" photo.
