Now I feel bad.

It's true what they say about not having enuf pix of the subsequently-born. When my brother was born the camera broke and we were broke so there aren't many pix for a few years.

With Alex, we have mom trying to align the planets of locating the camera, making sure the batteries are charged, figuring out how to download them, and THEN WHAT? Usually going to Target to print them out, but that's far away and $$$.

But to my credit (?) I did join (with resistance, and only sort of) the Cult of the Scrapbookers.

Anyway, what a cutie you have toddling through your house!

Yeah, this is the first child of two parents who work part time and whose father, me, works with a lot of media stuff. Considering all that, he doesn't get that many pictures.

More and more, I'm seeing places have little photo centers where you can put in camera media, do adjustments and order pictures. There are photo kiosks like this at my grocery store and in drug stores, so they're probably becoming more common.

Also, you can go to Flickr, a site that lets you set up photo pages. As a web developer, it helps a lot for me to have my own website, so I don't use Flickr, but I know lots of people who do, and they seem pretty happy.

But it is pretty natural that later children get photographed less. I can't remember having seen a single picture of me when I was Zane's age or younger.

If they would set up a kiosk like that in our barn it would be convenient.

Flickr, yes, cool, but we're talking about a grandma who refuses to look at such things! Also hard to frame & put on a wall.

well he is cute!!!
