Can You See the Sunset From the Southside?: Just wait until I have a baby

Just wait until I have a baby -

Yesterday Amy and I went to a first birthday celebration for the lovely little Gillian. She is the daughter of fellow bloggers SD and CBT and is quite the little peanut. Because I have a new camera that needs using I took some pictures. I took 104 (mostly terrible) pictures to be exact, but as Jay said, "Sometimes we amateurs get lucky...and then there are the professionals."

Since neither of Gillian's parents have posted any pictures, let me post of few of my faves from yesterday.

What a smile.

Mmmm...Sippy cup.

Every little girl needs a Wilco tee. (Yeah, we got her that one!)

CBT behind the camera.

So both of Gillian's parents were in the short-lived band La Divina Demora along with Dave from Passenger (I swear they had a website) and Mark from Division. They played sweet pop music with male/female vocal interplay. Nice stuff here. I also thought I'd post a song from a much talked about band called Thee More Shallows. More nice dark indie-pop here.

Foreverdad at 10:29 PM: You are a professional! Great pics and pictures...Thanks for the nice post...I have to stay away from the politics on some others!!!
gone at 7:18 AM: Wow, Eric. Great pictures. I took no stills so if you could email me some of those 104 I'd seriously appreciate it.

Passenger is here at passengerownsyou.com.

I can't believe you posted La Divina Demora stuff. Our short-lived blog is here. We never rerecorded the vocals like we wanted to, but I suppose there is plenty to be proud of there anyway.
Kurt at 8:23 AM: Nice pics. If it's not too much trouble, when you post pics can you also post your camera settings? Or if you're in an auto mode, which one. My camera, since it to be a Cannon, I think has basically all the operations you got. Blog ya later.
sweetviolet at 10:26 AM: nice, eric. pretty babies make pretty good subjects.
PAgirly at 8:32 PM: in the words of Gillibean, "oooooooooooooooooo"
Eric at 9:49 PM: Kurt are you being serious or just a jackass? For once I can't tell. Either way sure I'll post what settings I use from now on. I generally set the aperature myself and auto everything else. Not too complicated.
Eric at 9:49 PM: SV - Thanks.
Kurt at 7:53 AM: Yes. Quite Serious.
Ayn Marie at 5:39 PM: I must get a wilco T for hayden. that is too cute!!

PAgirly at 9:10 PM: we bought a wilco onesie for our little unborn baby girl. she can wear it next summer...i cant wait to put that pink thing on her with little girlie jeans *insert fist into mouth & bite here*
gone at 6:54 AM: WOW! I'm seriously impressed Eric.
