Patterned paper by Anna Griffin, also used several plain cardstocks. Top heading printed from M/soft Publisher and decorated with heart punches, Cloud quote reads "The only thing worth stealing is a kiss from a sleeping child. Joe Houldsworth" and is also printed from publisher, decorated with acrylic stars. The mini tag is cut out of cardstock, edged with purple ink, and decorated with flower sequins, safety pin, ribbon bow, and heart reading Sweet dreams.

Hidden journalling under the bottom photograph reads:

These photos were all taken at about the same time, June and July 1997, when Tyson was 6 to 8 weeks old. His sleeping problems hadn’t started in earnest yet, but we had already given up on the bassinet, it was so much easier to rock him to sleep in the pram. Anyone familiar with how babies sleep would recognise these sorts of photos. They would sometimes ‘startle’ in their sleep, and stretch their hands out as if to grab on to something. If you watch closely enough, you can see their eyes moving back and forth as they are dreaming.
What do babies dream about?

You can see in these photos also, how he wore off all of his baby hair, so as to be even balder than at birth. All he had left was a little fringe around the bottom, where his heavy head didn’t rub. His hair took a long time to grow back, he didn’t have his first hair cut until after he had turned 2.
