Big Finger, Small Fingers  (Apr 5, 2006)

Voted 3.5/5.0 (52 votes) — Rate it!  1 2 3 4 5 (5=best)

Ok, one more baby photo then I'll try to return to the abandoned stuff (though if I manage to grab something that falls into the realm of 'really cute', there's no guarantee it won't usurp an abandonment).

This was taken a little more than an hour after Connor was born. For some reason we're all drawn into wanting to have the baby grasp our finger -- I'm still doing it (and don't expect that to stop any time soon) -- so once the parents (well, grandparents actually) entered the room they took their turn.

This is Connor holding the finger of Jenn's dad and holding on tight! I haven't taught him the essential ninja death grip yet but I figure he's still got a few years before he needs to master that one...

It just doesn't get any better than this...can ya feel the love... As far as I'm concerned keep those baby pics coming, can't get enough

Its veyr cute but the b&w gives a traditional look too. The death grip is already strong in this one. He'll be a great ninja one day.

Put anything in a baby's palm and the fingers will close -- it's an autonomic response. I'm sure nature also intended that first "anything" to be a loving person's finger, so go to town and enjoy! Nice shot.

as long as 'abandoned' and 'baby' aren't in the same post.... we will be pleased.
