Baby image of the day: making my brother laugh

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 12th 2006 1:00PM

I know it's a bit unfair to select my own boys for Baby Image of the Day, but today is my last as sole judge and jury for this feature - I'll be handing off to Larissa Brown. This picture, for me, is the soul of the love between my two sons. ...

Baby image of the day: holding daddy's hand

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 11th 2006 7:00PM

I don't know if it's the same for all of you mamas, but for me, the relationship between my husband and the boys is the one I agonize over, hoping that it will turn out right in the end - that they will strike the right balance between discipline ...

Baby image of the day: family in sunlight

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 10th 2006 4:00PM

There's no mystery why this photo amazed me. Nothing's more evocative of the magic of becoming a family, and I love how the sun plays across the faces of mom and baby, symmetrically, and how they make shadows for one another. Photo of baby Teo and ...

Baby image of the day: cheek to cheek

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 9th 2006 10:40AM

Some images come with their own internal soundtrack. Like this one. It's entitled, "so happy together," but all I can think of is "....when you're dancing, cheek to cheek..." It rocks, it rolls, it moves and it grooves. This photo ...

Baby image of the day: sleepy love

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 8th 2006 6:00PM

My heart goes out to this photo because it's everything I most love about having babies... that moment, when you fall asleep with the baby next to you, and it's all peace and quiet quiet slurping. I'm all about co-sleeping and this image gives it ...

Baby image of the day: first kiss, sibling version

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 4th 2006 8:00AM

While there may be nothing so arresting as the first time you kiss your first child, there is nothing that brings tears to a parent's eyes more than that first kiss between big brother and his new baby sibling. It's the moment you hoped for, worried ...

Baby image of the day: Emma's first kiss

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 2nd 2006 9:00PM

Remember your first kiss? No, not that kiss. This one. The first time you held that new, wrinkled, impossibly vulnerable baby in your hands and looked at her. You promised to love her always, and you sealed it with a kiss. No gesture before or ...

Baby image of the day: passionate kiss

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 31st 2006 10:00AM

I think of my nine-month-old son, Truman, as a slobbery and obsessed lover. He looks at me with those moony eyes, he licks up and down my arm like he can't get enough of my skin, he attacks my face with open-mouthed kisses. This image is so ...

Baby image of the day: legs in pink

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 29th 2006 9:00AM

Many of the images I select are full of color, awash with personality, sparkling with bright eyes. But this one is monochromatic and entirely devoid of eyes, yet sparkles with something else entirely. It's a study in pinks, in the interlacing ...

Baby image of the day: through the window pane

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 28th 2006 11:00AM

Why is it that toddlers love windows so? From the time babies can reach out and touch something, they seem drawn to the glass, to the magic of feeling something that you can look through, the curiousness of seeing outside, and also seeing yourself ...

Baby image of the day: silly, off-center

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 27th 2006 7:00PM

I love a good off-center photo, and this one is so fluid, so silly, it's irresistible. It captures the soul of a preschooler, and it's pretty to boot. Photo of Vivienne uploaded by Metal Meredith. If you'd like your own child featured here, simply ...

Baby image of the day: eat your carrots

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 26th 2006 11:00AM

We're feeding a lot of babies today, and this one seemed a lot less sure than my little guy whether this baby food was all it's cracked up to be. Carrots... is this food? His look seems to say. Hey, sweetie, I'd wonder too, if I were you. Photo ...

Baby image of the day: that parade wave

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 25th 2006 4:00PM

Everybody loves a parade. But they can't happen every day. Why not? Katherine can teach us a thing or two about taking your adoring crowd wherever you can get it. Just strap the sparkly crown on, secure her in her float (a.k.a. stroller), and soon ...

Baby image of the day: learning to read

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 24th 2006 7:00PM

Mimi aime la Musique! And the baby obviously loves to read, even though (if truth be told) he might not be quite old enough to know which side really should be up. I love Ido's look, as if, he's about to fall asleep doing his homework. "Mama, ...

Baby image of the day: Lauren, off to war

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 23rd 2006 5:30PM

Lauren's daddy, a Marine, is being deployed in a few weeks. This image captures everything that's so frightening and proud and sad and grown-up about being the child of a military parent. I'd want to go with Daddy, too. Photo of Lauren uploaded by ...
