squints, teeth, and bed hair

Last night, during dinner, Sam discovered squinting. Before I put him down for bed, we had several of rounds of silent squints at each other. I finally pulled out the camera to try and capture one:

This is the best one that I got, and it's really more of a pre-squint than a squint.

Most of my pictures don't even have squints. As soon as I would whip out the camera, and his expression would immediately change to a quizzical, "what are you doing?" look.

And then he just started to get annoyed. I like this picture, though, because you can see his first two teeth!

I got out the camera again this morning because Sam woke up with his first case of bed hair. I guess his hair is long enough to get really mussed up. Instead of capturing the bed hair, though, I ended up photographing a lot of squints (and jumps too, which account for the blurry images!).


And, in case you're interested, I did get a couple of bed hair shots too:

These photos of Sam make me want to get in the car and drive straight to see the three of you. I will look forward to exchanging squints sometime tomorrow. Love the shot where you show his two teeth. I assume Sam is only using that binky to chew on. I'm glad you're feeling better.
