Caitlyn's Pictures

Caitlyn has been begging me to use my camera to take pictures outside. I have been hesitant for the obvious reason: I am worried about her dropping it and throwing away several hundred of my hard earned dollars. But today I finally caved in. And to be honest, she took some really great pics!! And it is interesting to see things from her perspective for once.

I find it very interesting what she wanted to take pictures of though. Before we left the house, she kept telling me that she wanted to get pictures of animals. Well, in Chicago there aren't many animals running here and there. Unless you count squirrels, pigeons, and the ocassional stray dog/cat. However, once we were out there and walking, she found so many other neat things to take pictures of.

Here are a few of them:












This is my favorite of all 49 that she took. I love the way the colors are in it!




Do all kids feel it necessary to take pictures of their feet once they have a camera in their hands???



Now she wants to go out at night and take some too. Since it is supposed to be pretty warm this week, maybe we will do just that.

Well the shoes are cute, that's for sure! I think it's awesome she loves to take pictures! Have you seen the fisher price cameras for kids? I saw them at Walmart -- I don't know how much they were.

Looks like a budding photographer if you ask me!
