I’ve been meaning to take some photos of Kylie (or “kiwi” as Taryn calls her) and today was a good day to do it. Taryn wasn’t in the mood and not feeling well, so Kylie was my target (I took a total of 10 photos today – I wonna play with my new camera dang it!). She’s as bad as our other children about avoiding eye contact, she dislikes the camera.

I’ve been dying to take some pictures of Ty with his turtle. Escaper got a little freaked out by our big black dog licking her chops and wouldn’t poke his head out though….can’t say I blame him! and I have to throw this one in…..I get this face every single time I take out the camera. He’s 9 🙂 Ok, I’m off for the rest of the day, I’ve got to go work on the newsletter for Ty’s school. Taryn will be relieved to get a break from the black box of torture. Sometimes I think when she’s grown she’ll wonder why no one is following her with a camera!
