“Napoleon Dynamite” had a catchy title and a good 7.1 rating at IMDB, so I watched it while it was at hand.

Many parenting books and websites have this suggestion to understand the baby’s world better: lay down on the floor and look around from the point of view of the child. Same things (furniture, people, etc) look very different from down there, they say.
Today I tried that and saw a totally different view of our living room. It was so different from the picture I am used to see that I decided to photograph it. Lots of chairs, a couch, a couple of armchairs and three tables create a forest of wooden legs. Fascinating. I should do it more often, I guess.

Maxim can sit. He is more and more confident with every day. He can even balance himself for a minute or so. It’s funny to watch him. He looks around in amazement. New way of looking at the same things for him makes him puzzled sometimes. And we he gets tires and falls, Olga and I are laughing our bellies out. Because he never tries to do anything about his fall. He never sticks his hands out or anything like that. And when he falls down (sometimes on the face), he lookes even more confused. It’s like he can’t understand what just happenned. Fun.

no one in the shop could tell me anything about “Cradle Will Rock“. I couldn’t remember any trailers or posters either. The list of names on the DVD cover looked impressive, so I rented it.
