A child's perspective, in pictures

A fun little post today...
O-dog didn't have any room left on his little fisher price camera that he received for a birthday gift when he turned 3.  I usually just went through the photos, deleted all the ones taken of walls, feet and the floor, and he was good to go again. However, he didn't want me to delete ANY this time, so they are now saved on our computer, YEA - not so enthusiastically.  However, I have enjoyed finding some of them, because they are of moments that I would never have had my camera out. I'm not saying I always love the condition of the house when some of these photos were taken, but I do like the randomness and realness that they depict. There are also several pictures taken at our little rental house in Franklin and some of me pregnant with Amelia, which I don't have very many of.  So without further ado, here is a child's perspective... in some not-so-focused, not-so-centered, from a low vantage point - fisher price pictures!

Did I mention our Franklin house doubled as a hunting lodge?


I hope I was pregnant in this pic :) no head, no feet, just what is at their eye level.

Aunt Rebekah, who has gotten more than one "Are you my mom?" from my sons at family gatherings.  Too funny.

"A perfect set-up. My favorite chair as close to the tv as possible."

Oh, brother.

Oh, brother.  Oh, mom.

Finding that a lot of what he sees all day ----- is me.


Ev figured out how to work the camera.

Here's my face.
 
Here's my foot.


"I don't know who took all the books off the shelf, Mom?"

Railing. Eye level.

"Come on, you can make it."

"Wouldn't it be cool to take a picture of the movie we are watching?"

huh...

"I don't climb on things. Only when I really need something." - Ev
"She's going to know it was you - because I'm taking a picture of it." - O

"What does focus mean?"




Improvement.
