I haven’t been capturing good photos of Lil lately! First, I had that odd trouble with the camera– random images would become corrupted, so I was stuck using the tiny card that came with the camera until I figured out what the problem was. I believe it was just the cheap-o 1 Gig card we had, so the card has been retired, and I bought a new one. They sure are cheap now! Less than $20! I finally have a camera with lots of room for lots of pictures… and now I have a daughter who holds up her hand and yells “No Pictures” when I try to snap some!
Example 1:
This is almost an okay picture… looks like she’s waving, right?

But no…

She’s running at me, yelling NOOOO, with her hands up!
How can I manage a good picture with an attitude like that??
Here’s a shot of her new (to her) kitchen:

The kitchen came at a high price… our neighbors moved away and gave it to Lilia! We love the kitchen, but will miss our neighbors!
Here’s Lilia telling Stripe that he has a phone call:

And here’s a pretty cute one– Lilia and her Potato Friends:

(yes… that’s an actual potato… it has been retired and we are using Play-Doh instead.)
And then she follows it up with this:

(Be glad I did red-eye correction on this one!)
Oh well. At least I have a one-gig card and a camera that takes video (with sound!)… you really need video to capture a two-year old, right?

LOVE the bells. I wish we had something like that here. Maybe we do and I just don’t know about.
The real potato is hilarious. Did you end up eating it?

That was a potato that should have been eaten a long time ago… it was getting soft. After being poked with Mr. PotatoHead Ears and Eyes and Feet, it ended up in the compost!
The bells were at a small cute playground in a public park about half an hour (or more) away.
Lilia wanted to get her picture taken when she wore her sunglasses and beads and held the pinwheel.

Thank you! I have some homework to do, so I’m procrastinating now…
I just got your card– Thank you!! I love it! I am not sure if I should play with it myself, or share with Lilia!
That looks like such a fun kitchen! I love great hand-me-downs. I’m actually stalking Craigs List right now for a water table for Alex. I thought it might be fun for him on the front porch! Lilia looks so cute in all these pictures- she looks like she is having quite a happy summer!!!
