Rip Sam Wrinkle

Wrinkles, originally uploaded by Dan and Sarah.

Sounds like Rip Van Winkle... get it?

Last night, Sam slept 5 hours straight - a new record for him. The next challenge will be getting him to do that in his cradle rather that on daddy's chest on the sofa in the TV room. As much as daddy loves TV, he misses sleeping with mommy in bed.

I stole this picture of Sam a few days ago while Sarah was sleeping and Sam, just waking up in her lap, beginning to stir. I picked him up quickly so Sarah wouldn't be disturbed (any extra few minutes is gold to her by now), to let her sleep while I put Sam down on the bed and snapped away while he was happy. You'd never know by his look on his face here here that he's just a few moments away from making it very clear that he's done with the picture-taking and ready for breakfast - NOW! I like how the wrinkles of his back seem to cross over to his forehead; the lines complement each other. It could also just be that I'm getting way too into the artistic interpretation of these pictures?
