Photography by Charlotte

The older girls love it when I let them take pictures with our nice camera. Here is some of Charlotte's work. She's lucky if some part of the person she is photographing is in the shot.

Typing

Charlotte has recently figured out how to type her name on the computer, and she loves to do it. She knows the order of the letters in her name and can recognize them, so it's fun for her to type it.

Sometimes she has typos, but she did this 100% on her own!

Simple Gifts

One of Elise's favorite things to do is to wrap things up and give them to me. This is a present she gave me today: the Tag pen, wrapped in Vera's sock and tied with a bit of ribbon.

I love her little gifts and the way she always tells me to cover my eyes when she gives them to me, even if she knows I saw what it was already. Sweetest girl.

Nemo Family

We watch way too much Nemo around here because it's Charlotte's favorite movie. She lined up her Nemo friends and told me which ones represented each member of our family. From left to right: Daddy, Mommy, Elise, Charlotte (of course), and Vera.

Beach Day

Elise and Charlotte wanted to play beach, so they got a blue blanket for the water, toy shells, flip flops, and puddle jumpers, and they had so much fun pretending to swim.

Once There Was a Snowman

So excited for snow!

Once there was a snowman
tall, tall, tall.

In the sun he melted . . .

Birds on a Wire

I forgot to get the camera out, so this is a picture Matt took from today out our back door.
