Since last week, Kaikai's learnt how to express his likes by smiling and cooing. From the day we were rewarded by his smiles and coos, we were charmed and started capturing these precious milestones on camera! It's not as easy as we thought it would be! Everytime we whip out the cam, in the shortest time possible, the smiles are gone and no matter how hard we clown ourselves, he just ignores our attempts.. Hng..
Later, I learnt (from a parenting book) that babies prefer human faces and voices over other sights and sounds and would choose to smile at faces and voices. And so, the camera should never block our faces when attempting to snap a baby's smile. After several days and over a trillion shots, I finally got a couple of smiles on the cam! Ha, what an achievement!
And of course, some funny facial expressions that Kaikai came up with while I experimented, from frowning to displaying impatience.. Hmmm.. More recently, our little fren presented his 1st pout, turning his lips into an upside-down U and looking incredibly pitiful and adorable at the same time. As you might have guessed, capturing that silly pout's gonna be my next project! :p
