More Glamorama

Glamorama

Here are a few of the high resolution images that we got back from the photographer. These photos were taken when Charlie was 3 days old.

Maybe Now I'll Actually Accomplish Something...

Charlie loves her sling and so does Mama Siegler (because she can carry a sleeping baby and still have 2 hands free). Thank you to Los Zeiners for the great sanity-saving gift!

Back to Work

My ACom peeps greeted me with gifts and ballons. Thanks guys. It's tough, but good to be back.

Photoshop My Baby: Winners!

Nice work everyone. The results are in - and I have to include a couple of votes that came in via non-electronic means:

• +1 for Things to Come
• +1 for MVP
• +2 for Charlie Barkley
• +1 for Too Easy
• +1 for Charlie's CA Surf Posse

And what this means, dear friends, is that you have managed to engineer a 3-way tie. Hooray! More prizes! For more people! At more expense! To me!
Without further adieu, our champions are:

 

Classic Charlie

by Judy Ng!

 

Charlie Toad 

by Brendon Frank!

Charlie's Surf Posse 

by Lauren Peters!

I'm going to propose this:

• Mr. Frank gets a pair of ball tickets (Padres?)
• LP and Ng can fight over lunch and iTunes gift certificate or split both.

Lemme know if this works.

And thank you to everyone for participating. I hope you had as much fun with it as we did.
Stay tuned for more contests including:

• Dress My Baby
• The First-Word Sweepstakes
• Trick-out My Baby for Halloween
  ... and many more!

Less Lazy Sunday

What the family really* did on Sunday. A one mile hike up to Water Dog "Lake" in Belmont.
Go team!
(Note: Karen's post while on Sunday, included a photo from a couple of days ago - cheater)

Bunnies! Bunnies!

Two Sieglers. Four bunnies. Three sentence fragments.

Taking "The Show" on the Road

We pulled-off our first social excursion earlier in the week. Thanks to the Franks for the shanks. Okay, we didn't have lamb shank, but that would have been a dope sentence. They did however offer up their home and some delicious ratatouille for Charlie's first turn as a house guest.

Vacuum vs. Fussy Baby

Vacuum wins.

Phototshop My Baby: Voting Begins

Hey peeps,

Feel free to start voting via the column on the left now. There's a little gallery above to refresh your memory, or you can scroll down to sync-up what the titles of each are (most are fairly obvious). For the life of me, I could not figure out how to add the titles to the slides, sorry.

I have the voting going through Friday. And you can vote for more than one entry - so click on every one you like -  but only the image with the most total votes will "win".

Prizes: Choice of Giants tickets, iTunes gift certificate, or Siegler family lunch.
Oh, and eternal fame and glory.

Photoshop My Baby: "Sunny Charlie" by Aunt Katharine

!

Okay,

Mark+Karen+Jake+Ryan just sent Charlie her first custom "anything". This dippity-shwank name-embroidered blanket. A photo sesh* ensued. Enjoy.

A part of me wishes we had followed Jacko's lead and named her "Blanket". A personalized blanket that said the word "Blanket" on it would be pretty wicked. Wicked and self-referential.


*"Sesh" is what we photogs** call a "session"
**"Photogs" is what we photogs call ourselves.

Photoshop My Baby: Update

Hey guys,

The contest entries have been great. Gonna take any straggler submissions through the day and start up the voting tomorrow.

Thanks to everyone who has participated. It's been a lot of fun.

Cheers,

Glamo(u)r Shotz

Yeah - a pro photog at the hospital came in and took some shots of the Family Siegler. Don't have the full-rez images yet - but here's a sneak peek. Suck it Brangelina.

Charlie less than impressed with my moonwalk...

Next up: Hair Did

We can still rock...

... just mostly in chairs.
And usually while feeding.

Photoshop My Baby: "Charlie's Angels" by Poppa

Please note "Charlie's Angels" is not in the possessive here but short for "Charlie is Angels".

I swore never to buy anything from this store...

In fact, today I joked we should stroll in and have Charlie vomit with rage (which she is really good at). And then we went in. And then we bought this sun hat (thanks Great Grandma and Grandpa Schaefer!):

It's still mainly for d-bags, though. Mainly.
