Visiting at 3mo...

1 comments

We turn the clock back to the three month marker where Jason and his older twin from a different mother and father got to visit each other for the first time. The reason I say that is because our good friends Krystal and Tee welcomed their first child the morning of Jason's birth. So Jason and baby.B share the special day together.

Also, just a tip...click on a photo to view the optimized size and then simply use the arrow key on your keyboard to step through the photos. Flickr sometimes sharpen the medium sized image too much, thereby sometimes changing my processing intent for the photo. Be sure to scroll through the page if you want to view the running commentary.

"Ok you two. Play nice with each other." I am sure those are words we parents will utter more and more to the kids as they grow older.2683738537

I do believe J had other plans though.37cca29c82

Funny sequence of the two little rookies, jostling for position.
I think B was calling foul here whether the foul was intentional or not.14f47c4548

This looks a bit more intentional. ;)d10fc3ee55

It's too bad our friends with kids all live in other cities. It makes these getogethers all the more precious as we witness each child grow. I just saw B again last week and he's grown so much since these early images. It's nice to have photos to look back on. Ok, back to work for me. Until next time.

Jason.

0 comments

It's been almost a week so here's a photo of lil.J taken through the opening in the stroller. We were outside at the park and had Jason pretty covered up to protect from the sun. Setting the camera's exposure for the inside is why everything surrounding Jason's face is over exposed. However it serves to frames his cute little face nicely.

I know, it's just one photo...but at least it's something. :) I promise a more substantial post next.

About Baby Jason...

2 comments

With all the post about Terrence, you would think I only have one son. The truth is, mom Julie often is with Jason and Terrence is usually with me. And when you're with me...you'll get more pictures taken and thus, more blog post. That's not to say I don't have a lot of photos of Jason to blog about. I did go on a hiatus for a while...so there's a lot to catch up on.

I thought about posting earlier photos of Jason until I catch up to the present. But I decided I will just post the latest photos and work backwards. Because you see...I am always working on photography techniques...and this is simply the latest of that result.

Please enjoy.

Terrence at Splash Fountain

2 comments

I was up in Irvine early yesterday morning to visit Canon. Decided to stop by the Starbucks at the Spectrum. This is the result of that stop.

It was funny because there were other parents hanging at the fountain with their kids. But all of a sudden there were trickle of water announcing the fountain was alive. So for the parents who were casually enjoying their morning brew...it became a mad rush to get the kids out of there before the water went full blast. Of course, the kids were scrambling around to avoid capture and trying to get to the sprouts of water. It was a pretty funny sigh. I guess those who are parents can appreciate the humor more.

Here's a video of lil.T going at it after the parents all found a more comforting location to sit. It's times like these that makes me appreciate all the moments I get to work from home and have a flexible schedule. The following video is shot from my jailbroken iPhone 3G. The video actually looks better, but the online sites compress it so heavily. However, I can't wait for the new 3Gs with officially supported video which should make fore even sharper web video.



Here are some pictures from the day.

I love the contrast of the apparent motion of lil.T with the stop motion of the water.f5c0b96248
