i'm sorry, baby
Yes, that is me wiping black ink off Q's hand.
Yes, he was v. unhappy about having his little hand stamped for posterity.
Yes, he refused to unclench his fists.
Yes, I was determined to get a perfect handprint.
No, I never got it in the end.
All I got was one very sad baby and a few blotches that resemble paw prints.
Oh, and a lot of guilt.
Notes to self:
- Don't wait until your future offspring are six weeks old to capture their hand and footprints. A sleepy two-week-old bub would be much more cooperative.
- I must learn to embrace imperfection.

oh dear! I forgot to do it with DS so waited until he was 1 yr. He was much more co-operative then.
Footprints are easier - less ability to clench :)
You've done better than me Christina, David is 16 months and I still don't have his. I did have all good intentions...
