"a portrait of my son, once a week, every week in 2014"

Jimmy: playing with Dada in the one cupboard in the kitchen that is safe for him (no glass, no plastic bags, no net bags of onions (onion skin is just plain annoying to clean up), just tins, a few really big plastic bottles of water, the tray for his highchair and Dada). And he's wearing shoes just for fun.

Michael's mum (Jimmy's Grandma) has a photo of Michael in a cupboard, when he was a bit older than Jimmy is now. We'll share it one day, if she sends us a copy. Jimmy and Michael were having so much fun, it was just adorable. At one point they were both in the cupboard and played "where's Jimmy?" with me (Jimmy specific peek-a-boo).

And the shoes? Well, Jimmy's been fascinated with our shoes for a while and as he's standing more and more, I thought it was about time to bring out the shoes some friends gave us, as the shoes no long fit their son. It's been a week or so now, since the shoes came out, and Jimmy seems to enjoy wearing them. I have to admit that it's a little strange to see him in socks and shoes, shirt and shorts. He looks so grown up.
