The Budding Photographer and Aspiring Model

Landon has always enjoyed playing with my cell phone and taking pictures.  While I was making dinner the other night, he asked if he could take some pictures with the camera.  After reminding him to be careful, I told him sure.  I found these on my camera later:

Davis seemed to be a favorite subject of his.  This was the only one that was in focus.

 

He also seemed to enjoy taking pictures of his hand. I guess he figured out to move it a little more away from the camera on the second one.

 

His favorites were these crooked ones.  He thought it was so funny to have the room like this.  He kept laughing and showing me the pictures over and over.

The next day, while Landon was at preschool, Davis came up to me, handed me the camera, and said “cheese.”  When I asked him if he wanted me to take a picture, he got excited.  He kept posing and grinning at the camera, insisting I take more pictures.  Here’s a couple of them:

By the way, DavisLOVES this grandpa shirt, and always asks to wear his “papa” shirt.  If I tell him it’s dirty, he gets a sad face and repeats “diry” over and over.

  And finally, one last picture of two bubs in the tub, as my dad would say.

Some Fun

Sunday night, the boys decided to play dress-up.  They had fun trying on different hats and coming to show us how they looked. 

 

Where’s my hat?  Oh, there it is!

Grandma and Grandpa Malan got the boys some fun presents for Christmas, including a train sandwich cutter and a dry-erase board for Landon.  He wants a train sandwich almost every day.  We did a train track on the bottom with the extra bread yesterday, and he wanted me to take a picture.

He liked his train sandwich so much he wanted another one.

Davis of course wanted to join in with Landon on the coloring.

Sunday Crash!

After Sunday dinner, I was at the sink loading the dishwasher when I heard a deafening crash and the sound of shattering glass.  I turned around to see this:

The light fixture in this picture was originally screwed into the ceiling.  It had somehow come loose, fallen down, and as it fell, all four glass bulbs fell off and shattered on the floor.  You can see in the corner by the fridge that one bulb somehow survived.  We were just glad no one else was in the kitchen under the light!

January Snowmen

I know I am WAY behind on blogging, but I need to start somewhere, so here are the snowmen Landon and I made yesterday.  He saw them in a magazine and wanted to make them.  He had fun putting on the eyes and buttons.  We had to be creative with the carrot nose because I only had red and yellow gels, so we mixed the two until they looked a good orangey and Landon put the noses on using a toothpick.  They were delicious too!
