we're still here
Well, my little blog break became longer than I intended, and there's still not much new to say. Brian had a ReStore convention in Denver at the beginning of last week, then the end of the end of the week was spent getting ready for a quick trip to St. Louis for some family time and a Cardinals game with good friends. We're back now and I'm working on a few custom sewing orders, so hopefully soon I'll have a few pretties to show you.
While in St. Louis we picked up my old digital camera from Brian's mom. I totally forgot I gave it to her to play with, but then we all pitched in and got her a new one for Christmas. So now it is J's. Enthusiastically snapping shots out in the yard, he has already this morning filled the memory card three times. (No school today.) I've picked out a few to add to his Flickr set. I wonder if there are photography classes for tiny kids. Here's a lovely little portrait of N that he took.
Happy Monday, friends!

I think the Adkins use to has photography classes for kids...
I'm hoping to get Griffin the new digital camera for kids for festivus (I think it's made by Preskool... they show it going down a flight of stairs, so that may be sturdy enough for this household).

Glad you're back and glad that you found a camera for J. I can't wait to see what he captures.

Giving a kid a camera is such a great idea. I'm going to give Lily our old digital camera - thanks for the idea! And giving J his own flickr set - brilliant ;-)

wow J looks JUST like you in that photo.
what pretty blondies.
such an awesome idea to let him use the camera - probably creating a lifelong hobby, which is terrific (dh won a camera when he was 8 and still has it).

My 5yr old loves taking photos. He's getting quiet good and it's fascinating to see the world from their angle (lower down!), to see things how they see them...
you should encourage that!
