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: love that you can't put down

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

I've been in this very image; when baby falls asleep in your arms. A minute ago you were thinking about all those things you absolutely must get done. Now? You can't stand to put him down. Every breath just reminds you how much you're in love. Hey, ...

Baby image of the day: big brother

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 6th 2006 10:00AM

I was watching the slide show of Blogging Baby group photos, picking out images I liked and exclaiming to myself from time to time over the sweet faces. This one, though, made me feel the moment. Warmth welled up in me as if the sun was shining out ...

Baby image of the day: daddy's first love

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 5th 2006 11:00PM

Remember when he was all moony over you? When you first met and fell in love, and your partner gazed deep into your eyes. You couldn't help but gaze back and it made your heart jump inside you. Now your heart is jumping again, even though he's ...

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: crazy kisser

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Feb 1st 2006 8:00AM

Zerbert... raspberry... crazy kiss. Whatever you call it, it's silly, it's joyful, and it's often Daddy's favorite. My three-year-old gives them to his baby brother to the tune of hilarious laughter from both. This image so perfectly captures the ...

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: poster perfect

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 30th 2006 12:00PM

Have you ever looked at your children and thought, wow, they'd be perfect as a motivational poster? I certainly have (and always wondered why those motivational poster people picked such darned boring photos with which to motivate me). This photo, ...

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: 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: 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 ...

Baby image of the day: Glowing Tess

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 22nd 2006 10:00AM

She looks like a fairy tale princess, like the chosen one of some fertility goddess. I don't think I've ever seen a photo, taken in such a mundane setting, glow so luminously. And not bad yarn, either (runs to nearest yarn store looking for chunky ...

Baby image of the day: spikey Ella Jane

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 21st 2006 10:00AM

Really, how could I not select this photo? Not only is that hair, wow, that hilarious baby mohawk, well, I needn't even draw attention to it - your attention was captured immediately as you scrolled down the page, wasn't it? But it's her eyes, those ...

Baby image of the day: eyes peeking out

by Sarah Gilbert, Posted Jan 20th 2006 7:00PM

I love this take on the "baby jail" theme. This photo was taken at the playground, and Matt says he was lucky... Guenevere held still just for a second at the right time, eyes neatly framed by the holes in the grating. It's both charming ...
