The Schuster World: October 2010

Sorry to put it all in one post, but here are some pictures I took during the month of October!

Eating his Pokemon Mac & Cheese

Lila's first bath with Keegan!

At Pratt's 2 Year Anniversary Party, Keegan and our babysitter Morgan

Getting his face painted at the party!

At first he was a little scared of Spongebob

But he soon warmed up to him!

After the party at home

Lila's first day at Mother's Day Out (October 14th) - she goes in the morning time twice a week. It's great because that way Keegan and I have our alone time again!

Painting with Moma

Sweet boy

Ah yes.. he found some styrofoam and I figured it's better than something like markers on the wall! We had some fun with this

But it did take a while to clean.. those little suckers like to stick to things, making it difficult to sweep up!

We love this picture. Anytime Keegan sees someone with sunglasses, he says "cool guy" (yes, even if it's a woman wearing them) so he calls this picture "Cool guy Keegan" :)

Keegan has more fun with the walker than Lila does

Pretending to go potty... not quite there, lol

Mother/daughter

So I know this isn't a great picture, but it was looking at this very picture that I first noticed how much Keegan and Lila look alike. Something about the angle and how they're both kinda looking up, you can see the similarities between them!

This sweet girl is FINALLY colic-free! :)

And they are so good together - Lila really is happiest when Keegan is nearby

Oo so serious hehe

Holding hands :)

Father/daughter :)

I had the opportunity to be an extra in the upcoming film Trespass, featuring Nicole Kidman and Nicholas Cage. I showed up right on my call-time, and immediately got sent to hair and make-up; there were about 50-60 extras there for the scene we were shooting, and only about 10 of us got sent to hair and make-up. I took it as I just didn't look good enough haha. So as the guy is finishing my hair (which I was getting done right next to and at the same time as Sara Paxton), they said all actors and extras had to get on scene a-sap. I got up to the house we were filming at and immediately, one of the Assistant Directors brought me to the back of the house by the back door and told about 20 people outside to form a group around me. We did a couple practice runs and then Danny Dimbort (the guy who produced "Rambo", among other films) grabbed me and told me to go to the front of the house right next to where the main actresses would be walking into the house, and the way the camera angles as they walk in, I am almost positive I will get some screen time! It took us about 4 hours to get a 20-second scene shot. In between shots, I had the privilege of meeting the main director/producer, Joel Schumacher (known for "Phantom of the Opera", "8mm", the 90's Batman movies, "Phone Booth", among many others). I had looked him up beforehand and seen that he and I had the same birthday, so when he walked by me and asked if my partner was lively enough for me, I told him that I could manage and that we had the same birthday. He got a happy look on my face and grabbed my hand and said it was great to be a virgo, and then proceeded to dance with me. I never thought that a big shot like Joel Schumacher would've ever been so nice to me. Needless to say, it was a lot of fun and I anxiously await for the movie to come out in theaters!!

Keegan Keegan Keegan. On Sunday, October 24th, Keegan got a hold of some super glue and managed to get the cap off and squirt it in his eye. I was occupied with Lila at the time (which I feel AWFUL for :( I should've kept a closer eye on him) and he came running to me with his eye glued shut. I immediately ran it under some water and called Jonas home. Keegan went to the ER, where he had his eye irrigated and injected with dye, so that the doctor could check for damage. He had an abrasion on his cornea, which we are still giving him drops for. The glue finally came off and allowed him to totally open his eye on Saturday, just in time for Halloween. This picture was taken on Sunday night, after he got home from the hospital.
