Comrade Josie, Ready for Takeoff

Here's a picture of Josie in Smith Park. I think she looks a bit like a cosmonaut in this outfit.















Hello, comrade!

A few more shots from the photo shoot

Two more shots, stolen from the photographer's blog, for your viewing pleasure. Our camera is on the fritz so there may be some downtime here on the blog, although maybe we'll try to post some cellphone shots here and there until we can figure out what's going on with the camera (or we replace it).

Rainy day jam session

Josie can already pick out "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and a few other basic tunes...she'll be playing Segovia in no time.







We'll probably use this as the cover shot for her all-acoustic album (an unexpected departure from her heavy metal/glam rock debut, "All Systems Jo")

Supermodel shots

A few sneak peak shots from this weekend's photo shoot. I'll post more when they're available from the photographer's blog. Here's one where she's chatting with another baby model.


Josie's eyes are hypnotic in this one.












Hangin' out in the wrap.

Big eyes

I don't know why people keep commenting on Josie's eyes...








Pretty, blue eyes? Who, me?

Work it, supermodel

Josie and I traveled to Oak Park today to take part in a baby-modeling photo shoot for a company that makes baby wraps called Moby (I'm on a listserv for people who baby wrap and the photographer was looking for volunteers). I'll post the professional pix soon (and there are some great ones!)--this is just a quick shot using our camera that the mom of the photographer took. We got a free wrap out of the deal, as well as this nice hat. People kept stopping to comment on how cute Josie was and the photographer, who photographs babies for a living, was impressed, too.

Sitting up on the playmat

Josie is having lots of fun these days experiencing her playmat from a new perspective.







She is sitting up on her own for extended periods of time now.








Look at the little beer gut she has...maybe it's helping her to keep her balance.
