"The Important Things in My Life" (Geddy)

Geddy asked to borrow the camera one day to take pictures of "the important things in my life".

Hie beloved Pillow Pet, Woof.

The pantry. Maybe because that is where all of his puzzles and playdough and such is kept.

One of his many basketballs. He and Scott actually use this one more like a soccer ball in the house as it is rather flat and softish so doesn't hurt the house too much.

His favorite stuffed animal and friend, Shoshio Silly Kitty Hirsche, aka Shoshi.

His number two stuffed animal, Sphinx "Phinxy" Hirsche. Bought by Daddy at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Geddy chose the name Spinx because we stayed in The Luxor and Geddy thought that he was posed like the giant Sphinx outside our hotel.

His nightly companions for bedtime and his daily companions for an assortment of adventures.

Signs on his door that have been there since Halloween of 2009.



A portion of his messy room (and yes he still has pink carpet). Since he took this picture his room became even messier and we had a bit of a discussion about it last Friday when I was cleaning it. He has promised to do a better job of cleaning up after himself. He has done a fabulous job for a whole week. I am very proud of him.




He did a pretty good job for a four-year-old who has never used a camera before. I particularly enjoyed how he "posed" his stuffed animals and basketball on the living room floor. And how he chose to individually take a picture of each sign on his door instead of just one of his whole door. He wants to borrow the camera again to take pictures outside. I will probably let him once it is spring and there is something more interesting to take pictures of than snow!

Isn't if fun what the photograph? I gave Nathaniel the old digi camera (that can't zoom in anymore) to use a few times last fall. He took pictures of his lunch, etc. We got both boys digi cameras for Christmas - J's was a little nicer, Kodak. N's was a Crayola one from Costco, but it takes great pictures - but most importantly - it's very durable! I wonder if I ever blogged about his pictures?
