A post from Evelyn

[same_sky]

Dear Internets,

Please help me. My parents seem to think I am nothing but a tiny doll that they can dress up and take pictures of. All. The. Time. It's not that I mind having my picture taken, for admittedly, I am gorgeous. Also, the camera is funny and sometimes I like to talk to it. But seriously, every new outfit, every new location, every day? It is taking important time out of my life that I could otherwise spend cooing adoringly at the tile on the bathroom wall. I love tile. Tile is my friend.

Daddy used to say he wouldn't let Mommy dress me in overalls. Where's his backbone? Tell the woman "no" now and then, Dad!


Is this really an appropriate place for picture taking? Geez, Mom, you're embarrassing.


I am not even dressed. Have you no shame? I don't care if the dumpy one did make this diaper!


This shirt is humiliating. It's a good thing you can't see the mini skirt I'm wearing with it. My mother is turning me into a hoochie-mama and no one cares!


Another outfit, more pictures. They took about fifty. They all look about like this. See what I mean?


A robe and slippers. What, do they think I'm going to slip when I walk? I CAN'T EVEN ROLL OVER. Nor can I sit in a chair, so what am I doing here?

But I have to admit that sometimes the pictures are pretty cute. My friend the bear is fun. I can't wait to go back to Granny's house!!

Love,
Evelyn.

p.s. They just started calling me "Possum Charlie" and then laughing like they think they're funny. If they don't cut it out, I'm not going to sleep through the night again until I'm ten. They've been warned.

Oh my goodness! That smile! She is melting me! Maybe I need another one of those after all.

And Possum Charlie? That must stop.

Thank you! Hey, weren't you supposed to come visit this summer? Were you just afraid that she would trigger your ovaries? *laugh*

Also, I know. Possum Charlie is a bad, bad nickname. At least we stopped calling her Ducky?

Okay, she won me over with the teddy bear grin! :) So, so, soooooooo cute!!!

Thank you! Those grins are so sweet!

Funny. On the contrary, I'm sure she'll love having her life so well documented. And on the plus side, taking 10,000 pictures ensures MANY "wow" pics - like the teddy bear and the one of the 3 of you outside.
Hope you don't mind me being nosey - I found your link from Glenna's page.
We miss you.

If this is child abuse, then I'm behind it 100%. Sorry E, someone else is going to have to call CPS. :-D

If it IS child abuse, then unfortunately, I am going to make it pretty easy for them with all this documentation. :)

You actually have the most beautiful baby I have ever seen!!!!

Thank you! We think she's gorgeous but you know, would I really know if she wasn't? *laugh*

Hahahaha! Oh gosh, she's absolutely precious and the captions had me LOL'ing all over the place! I love this! =D

Thank you! I think she might have other posts occasionally. I was hoping it wasn't too obnoxious. ;)
