2005.05.18 - truman's modeling debut, and, alert! alert! -
"He's so alert!" a mom cooed at Truman today. And I realized he'd been awake, and peering at me with his beautiful blue-grey eyes, for an hour already. And throughout the day, he's been awake for longer and longer periods, playing, waving his arms, half-smiling at me. He's so interested in the world, his little breath coming in short excited bursts.
He has a lot to be excited about. Today we had a 'photo shoot' for Everett. He's going to be in a calendar advertising Fuji film (I can't wait to get the calendar, by the way). We had the sweetest Japanese photographer, who'd flown in for two weeks to get his shots. Everett was his last model and he was enamored with his blonde curls, and with Truman.
Even though Everett was the 'model,' the photographer took plenty of shots of Truman and me, as well. I only signed a release for Everett and I wonder if, somewhere down the road, Truman's sweet baby face will grace Mr. Photographer's portfolio. I hope he'll send me copies if it does.
you would have taken a pic of this cutey, too
