One evening last week, as our family was just sitting (a rare occurrence in this household,) I let Koko Bean shoot some pictures with my camera. After the initial point-anywhere-and-push-the-button-shots, we taught her how to use the screen on the camera to pinpoint what she'd actually like to capture. The following shots were actually taken by Koko Bean and then Mommy cropped as needed. I think you'll find she might have a talent in this.
Apparently Mommy was her muse for this particular creative process. However, she didn't leave out Chloe...
Or Flex....
(I think Flex may have been temporarily blind after this. She had the camera centimeters from his face.)
And she definitely didn't neglect her daddy....
Koko Bean is one creative munchkin. She enjoys coloring, drawing shapes, and stacking various objects like coffee creamer whenever we are out to eat. She makes the most beautiful and monstrous coffee creamer pyramids. For the last six months, she's been able to name shapes. She knows how to draw a circle and instead of everything being pink, she's actually learning other colors.
It's also amazing how a child can soak up stuff, retain it, and then spit it back out at you when you least expect it. The other day, she had a penny in her mouth. When Dad saw it, he told her to get it out of her mouth immediately! She did what she was told, but after Dad left the room, she looked at me and said, "He's dramatic!" Yes, Koko Bean, I would have to agree.
