The photohunt theme this week is family. I decided to show you a photograph in my family flip album. Bill took this shot of me and our daughter in 1985, shortly after we got home from the hospital. 
So many of the shots Bill took of our daughter as a newborn, with me, only show a part of my body. In one shot I won't use, all you see of me is my breast. In the shot above you only see my lap and torso as is shown above. I remember a time I was bothered by how I almost looked like furniture for the baby. Now I love these shots. You don't need to see my face to see a mother/child bonding. I have another shot from this album in the parallel lives photohunt on Snap2Days. You can browse other early bird photohunters on technorati -

Family ties, the most important of all in the world :)
Very beautiful, Carver, and what a great idea for the theme.
Haha look at my little alien head.
I couldn't wait for this theme to come because I was excited to see fellow photo hunters' families or their spin on the theme.
Yours is oh so darling. Thanks for sharing this lovely shot of your daughter and some parts of you :D
Happy weekend.
This is so beautiful! Wow, she is tiny. Love the composition with the flip book too. Have a nice weekend!
oh yes, this is so beautiful! Lovely pick for the hunt.

That's a gorgeous picture, Carver!
I like your flip album - very creative composition.

Happy weekend, Carver!
This is a beautiful shot!
Happy Weekend.

Beautiful baby :) I too went with a vintage shot. Have a wonderful weekend!
Wonderful photo Carver. A treasured memory!
Almost put my comment on the wrong post, the screen jumped for some reason!
Great interpretation of this theme Carver. We treasure these photos so much, it just seems like yesterday, doesn't it?
Lovely one, great choice for the theme... Have great day! Mine's up too... hope to see you @ my corner!!!
Lovely shot! When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.... Mine's up too.. Happy weekend!
Somehow that photo is heart-tugging. I have a similar shot with my son but that's not what I posted today. :-)
how time flies. it is almost 24 yrs sice that time. so much of a learning curve too raising a child. i still got a long way to go n sometimes i feel it is a daunting task n overwhelming but at the same time we give thanks to God for the honor
Lovely family flip book! So nice to look back.
Love this post, so full of love :)
thats a beautiful shot of bonding with a newborn :-)
What a sweet photo! I have ones like that, too.
"I remember a time I was bothered by how I almost looked like furniture for the baby. Now I love these shots. You don't need to see my face to see a mother/child bonding."
With words like these, I just know that you have to be a wonderful mother! :)
hello, happy hunting.....mine is up!
Strong family ties makes life worth living. Thank you for sharing this precious photo.
Adorable,Carver! Soo cute:) Mine is posted HERE. Happy PH!~
What a cute photo!
it is a lovely photo indeed. I love shots that only show a part of a person like that. they convey emotion very well.
happy weekend.
aren't those memories just perfect.
Precious shot, Carver. I really like the way you set it up ~ so creative.
Just perfect.
So sweet..wish we could keep them like that...
Love the black and white, your analogy of being furniture made me laugh, although it makes for an interesting theme of an array of baby pictures. I bet your daughter cheerishes them all.
awww, aren't babies the most precious things?!

What a sweet shot. You can see the love and nurturing even without a face.
When my husband and I first got together we went on a road trip and I was not too good with my camera back then so often his head was cut off or he was blurred. Today we still have those shots and we laugh at them.
Great family shot!
Have a happy weekend!

Lovely photo, and I can see how you must treasure it and the others.
that photo is so precious..
This is a beautiful idea Carver. I need to get some of my photos scanned in. I too am lacking in the early years as I always took the photos.....
You're absolutely right! Nice shot...
Precious, Carver.
What a wonderful family picture of you and your new daughter!
lol- guess I can't say it's nice to have a face to put with the name to you, can I? But, you are right- the photo does express bonding very well.
My Family
Perfect photo for the theme! And such a wonderful photo filled with memories to treasure!
I loved the " baby" picture.
She's so tiny... amazing isn't it :-)
I know what you mean - we have a breast-shot too, not for public display!
This is such a lovely photo.
This is a beautiful photo, I love the way u guys have done this, whether deliberately or not. And an absolutely beautiful baby!
Yes, on the bonding, great, original picture.
Pam
that is the most adorable photo ever! ;-))
Nice shot - I like the flip album - in many ways it is better than a scrapbook or group of photo's in frames - In a flip album each photo has its own chance to shine and it is fun to anticipate what little surprise the next will hold
