Liam, my budding photographer
Liam has started demanding my camera and wanting to take photos. These are photos he took before Christmas. I am going to try to remember to let him take more photos, especially since I got a nicer point-and-click for Christmas (a super-zoom Panasonic Lumix).
Our son also loves the camera. So much that we looked into getting him his own. His older sister has a pink kids camera, but we wanted to get something not pink. After looking at the rough and tumble kids ones, we went with a quite cheap but much higher megapixel one from walmart. That way if he breaks it, we won't be out a lot of money. It was actually cheaper than the kid cameras.
I love letting my boys play with my camera. Zeke is getting really good at taking pictures of people, so when Josh isn't around I know I can hand the camera to Zeke and he'll come through for me.
Looks like Liam and Deacon take the same kind of pictures - more random things and people. I love it. The second one you posted is my favorite. :)
Michelle, the mommy, the only girl, obsessive about sleep schedules, therapy schedules, loves reading, wine, and cooking (not necessarily in that order)
Dave, the husband, Air Force JAG officer, problem solver, loves travel, unscheduled time, and Syracuse basketball
Liam, the primary student, the oldest son, loves penguins, especially emperor penguins, space, science, people-pleaser, gifted/ twice-exceptional, diagnosed with PDD-NOS but making amazing strides with ABA therapy, speech therapy, and OT
Ben, the preschooler, the youngest son, loves spinning in circles, climbing, and dancing, fearless, moody, and spirited, wants constant contact from Mommy, diagnosed with high functioning autism (Asperger's), but making progress with OT and speech.
Murray, red-point Siamese cat, the smarter, skinnier cat, his world revolves around Michelle and judging others for their inferiority, He tolerates Dave and Ben, but hides from Liam.
Sammy, red-point Siamese cat, the fat, dumb, fluffier cat, scared of everyone, and believes Murray rules the world
Ollie, the white German Shepherd rescue, loves taking walks, our gentle giant who just goes with the flow in this crazy house
