my modeling debut

so mommy and daddy got so busy with all our recent visitors that they totally forgot to put up a few pics from my recent modeling photo session for the 'lil joey cloth diapers by rumparooz. i've been telling them they need to make them available...after all, i'm sure my fans are waiting! here are just a few of my favorites.

classic white...it goes under anything!

daddy was a little worried about me in lavendar,
but it goes well with my skin

i'm sure i was pondering something important

my true model pose...don't you think it'll get me picked up
by some other big wigs!

i'll make sure to let you know when they show up on the rumparooz website, as well as the promo video that i'll be in. so keep checkin' back.

the magnificent cloth diaper duo

i had some fun playtime with truett this morning. mommy and lula put us in colorful cloth diapers and we got a chance to have some fun.

like our dads, we needed space

until our mommies moved us close

can i tell you a secret?

we're buddies for life

here comes truett

a little closer...

um, a little too close buddy

you made me cry!

great! there's simon again

me and my cousin truett

diapers, diapers everywhere!

daddy's money savers

i got my cloth diapers today from rumparooz. mommy convinced daddy to make the investment. it was a hard sell until mommy explained to daddy the cost of buying disposable diapers in the long run versus the upfront cost of cloth diapers. since daddy is a budget person, the savings he saw clinched the deal. plus, daddy had a different image of what cloth diapers looked like. the ones we got have snaps which are adjustable for when i get bigger and are shaped just like a regular diaper...and they are easy to clean. they come in all sorts of fun colors and patterns. a baby boy has got to look his best and these diapers are stylish. if you recall, i was in a photo shoot to be a model for the lil joeys, which are the newborn size cloth diapers made by the same company.

hey ladies, notice the bicep

mommy's favorite pattern

So comfortable

i'm a model, you know what i mean...

...and i do my little turn on the catwalk (i don't know what any of that means, but mommy says that many of you will already be humming the tune that goes with it).

sporting my lil' joey diaper at home

today was a big day. at my newborn photo session last week, lora (the photographer) made mommy and daddy a proposition. she was hired to do some promotion shots and a video for rumparooz, a major cloth diaper brand based here in colorado. lora thought that i was so cute and would make a good model for the new "lil' joey" diapers made especially for newborns. so, today was my first official day as a baby model! mommy took me to the studio this morning where lora took lots of pictures of me in the diapers. they kept changing my diaper and i couldn't figure out why - i hadn't even gone potty yet! i guess they wanted to get me in different colors. i even wore a purple one! the still photos will be used on the rumparooz website, as well as other retailer websites.

plus, lora also took some video of me that she will work into the promo video they are shooting for the website. it's being put to a new song by uncle jim (he is actually the guitarist for jimmy buffet, but also does children's stuff on the side).

mommy was so proud that a professional thought i was cute enough to be a model, especially for a great cloth diaper...the ones that she intends on switching me to soon anyway! and we got some free lil' joeys out of the deal, too. so fun! i can't wait to look back on the photos someday and tell all my friends about my modeling debut. now, i am just like my gampa - i am a baby model and he won a baby photo contest! yeah us, gampa!

as if that wasn't enough excitement, i also had some visitors come see me this afternoon. three ladies from my mommy's work wanted to come over and meet me for the first time, as well as bring lunch to mommy. it was great to meet you donna, christie, and hannah. thanks for being so gentle with me and letting me sleep the whole time. and the chinese food was yummy...it added a little kick to mommy's milk tonight and i didn't want to stop nursing! yum, i can already tell i'm gonna like spicy food just like my daddy!
