Wistful Wednesday : 1950

Who is this chubby faced baby with the big smile?

Gene 4 mo #4

This was taken on the west side of the house, just about 61 years ago.  He was all ready to go for a ride in the baby buggy all propped up with a pillow and he even has his bib on. 

Far Guy was a very handsome baby:)

    Nothing to do but eat, sleep and have your every demand met. What a life. I'm a 1950 baby too. It is so easy for the rest of the family to figure out your age. Darn!

    Great picture! I'm a 1960 baby, so it's easy for everyone to figure out my age too. And to remind me when I turned 50!

    I hope the birthday was great. 1950 was a good year that we share.
