Another Fall Photo Shoot

This one a little harder because my little one is a little more meaner and alot more hyper than my older. She doesn't pose well. She doesn't stand still well. She's always on the move.

I wish I had as much energy as she has. Even half as much energy would get me through the day alot easier. I could just see myself running...and skipping...and tripping over the tips of my shoes... and falling down... and skinning my knee about every twenty minutes.

That would be hard to explain to friends....and bosses...and people.

But, I did get a few good pictures of her through my new cool little camera. I just had to be tricky about it.

You notice her little abrasion on her eye. I think she was almost proud of it. She kept telling everyone that her eye was broke. She's a tough little thing. She can take a lickin' and keep on tickin'.

She does know now that you shouldn't ride through a cow pasture, running cows in, without your seat belt on. Valuable lesson I believe. [Even when Mom is not around, you should still wear your seat belt.]

And speaking of broke....she is on a broke kick. The other morning we were heading to work and school and she is in the back seat, (with her seat belt on) and says, "Hey Momma, Look at the moon!" I said, "Yeah I see it." Sophie says, "What's wrong with it?" I said, "Nothing." She said, "Uh-huh, it's broked off."

Bless her bones. She will be surprised that it's fixed when it's a full moon again next month.

Since Sophie wouldn't be still long enough for me to play with my different settings on my camera, I had to just get creative with positioning. I will have to stick to the more advanced shots with Sadie and Larry. (until they get tired of it.) Then I don't know what I'll do!

Sadie was trying to help me keep her entertained. She was my assistant. It doesn't pay well, just ask her and she will tell you. But she was pretty good at it. I would get Sophie interested in a conversation and I would snap while we where talking.

And of course, I bribed her with a Capri Sun and candy if she would let me take a few more pictures.

She did pretty well. I just would have loved another 30 more minutes that she was apparently too busy for.

Maybe next time. I didn't want to over do it on the first photo shoot. I'll just drag it out the rest of their lives!!
