Sarah, your photo is postively adorable. I LOVE the bonnet! Don't change it...what a sweetheart! :)

I don't have any baby photos...my mom has them all. Paul carries a picture of me in his wallet. It is one my mother gave to him when he and I first got married. It is my kindergarten school photo. LOL Yep...if anyone ever asked him to see a photo of his wife he'd have to show them a 5 year old. LOL LOL

Well here I am. I think I'm in 1st or 2nd grade. I'm not really sure. Don't you love my bologna curls?

adorable Joanne...Don't take this the wrong way...but that would pass for a fabulous vintage photo. I think it's the colouring that makes me feel like that..and the beautiful rag curls.

I think it was Tami who once told me, anything over 25 years old is considered vintage..of course we were talking about old lace and music paper etc to use for embellishments. i guess it applies to photos too!

Joanne, I just love it! I've been admiring it on Facebook all day. Such a cutie. I wondered if perhaps it was a 1st communion photo.

I just added mine.
I was 22 months old. I actually remember that little rocking horse!
I think colored photos were rare back then...the quality of the colors hasn't aged well.
I was blonde and curly back then too!

Jennifer, it could have been my 1st Holy Communication picture although I'm not sure I would have posed without my veil.

That was what I thought too...I mean if it was of your first communion then you'd be wearing your veil. But the sweet collared dress, your curls and cross pendent are wonderful.

Yeah, right! Like I'll be able to do that! You've heard me ask for help from the "Avatar Fairy". ;) If I load one on to the computer, I'll let you know.

Hope you like my favourite photo of me as a baby with our dog patsy, dont ask me how but she got in most of the family photographs (especially those taken with by the professional photographer).

Oops. Looks like I forgot to do this yesterday! See what happens when Emily drags me to the mall all afternoon? Ok, it was only an hour and we did NOT have to go into Hollister. WOO HOO. I hate that store. Its so loud. (Right Kathy?) lol She found some jeans at American Eagle and they were cheap compared to Hollister and Abercrombie. Yeah for me!! I will try and remember to do this today. I do have a baby book somewhere around here.

Paula Carden
01-17-2010, 04:09 PM
Oh wow I did get it as an avatar. This is a pic of me and my 2 older brothers (Cropped out) and I was probably 3 at the July 4th Carnival and they took pics. It is one my fav pics of the 3 of us.

I'm so bummed! My camera clearly does NOT like taking a picture of a picture. I can't tell you how many times I tried, it doesn't want to focus. :( I even focused on another item and then tried to take a pic, flash, without flash. Even the ones that didn't seem blurry were all blurry when I looked at them on the computer. Maybe David can figure it out for me.

We do need a closer up photo than that Kathy. I can't see you very well. hee hee

Paula, you were such a sweet looking adorable little girl. I love that picture of you.

Kirsty, 2 days old???? And look what beautiful big opened eyes you had -- so very cute.

Sarah, I absolutely love those "chipmunk" cheeks. I just want to pinch them -- precious!

Well, it is fun to see all those great early pictures. I wanted to play too but I don't have any pictures of me as a toddler so I added the earliest one I had.... 1984 grad picture from university!

loobylou
01-18-2010, 07:27 PM
heather, I think you look the same...you haven't changed a bit! I think I had that hairdo then too...maybe I should make the next avatar challenge a high school picture- or maybe Eighties week...that could be scary!

That would be one and the same for me, graduated in 1981!

Well, here's mine! Why my mom got one of me with my hands stuck in my mouth, I'll never know!! It's proof that stuffing the mouth starts very early in life, at least in my case :o)
