Semi-Broken Camera

Baby pictures updated: http://www.davidschaefer.ca/brenden/index.html

Once again I apoligize for not posting as often as I should. I am busy, busy, busy between Brenden and work.
I do have an excuse for not posting pictures lately though. My camera broke. Well, not totally, but the flash no longer works. For indoor shots I like to take pictures with the flash, and when Brenden is outside, well, he has to many clothes on because of the cold weather, so pictures of him just don't justify him. I recently purchased a new camera on EBAY and should be receiving it sometime next week (I hope). It looks like a great camera. It's a Canon Powershot S3 IS digital camera. Looks to be very nice and I'm looing forward to using it. It'll take some nice shots I bet. I was really after a Digital SLR, but their just to expensive for me, so I settled for one a few hundred bucks cheaper. Once I get it, you'll start to see more pictures appear on here again, but until then, you're stuck with my ramblings.

Brenden just went to the DR. on Monday for a checkup. He had a TB Skin test done and it never even fizzed on him. I would have passed out. Hope he doesn't acquire that from me. Needle = Pass Out. His height is 30 inches, and he weighs 22bs. He is really trying to put words together now. He says Da, Da quite well now, and he really loves trying to copy what you say, and as well as some actions. He claps his hands very well, and now he's started intentionally falling over so he can roll to his stomach. He's still not able to move anywhere (other than shimmying backwards) though. So we can still leave the room and get a drink from the fridge without worrying about him crawling somewhere he's not suppose to.

This week we booked a visit with a daycare. Well not just a traditional daycare centre, but a Montessori School in Ajax. It's quite pricey, but we know he's in great hands there, and they can be trusted. It's also good because they'll take babies from 12 months, whereas most are 16 months.

Other than that, there isn't much new to report. I do find it real hard to believe that he's almost 1 year old.

Wow! Time really does fly.

I posted a few pictures I took today (without the flash as mentioned).
