Captured Moments

There were a few moments today that I am grateful to have captured on camera.

Anna picked out Daddy's shirt today and decided she wanted to wear it, both before he left and after he arrived home. Doesn't she look a bit like yoda?

Our first time painting with watercolors...

...would have been fun if Mommy would let me paint my face and dump the water on the floor. Oh, and if Mommy would stop taking photos!

Anna helped me sew another napkin today. We've finished four of them together. It's slow going with Anna on my lap, but she really enjoys it. She removed pins, pushed the backstitch button, and begged to iron. Unfortunately, my heirloom variety machine is making a strange noise. I guess I should look into a newer model.

I finally downloaded the Hipstamatic app for my iPhone and gave it a whirl for one of the best moments of the day. Anna, Daddy, and Anna's monkey friends (recently named Pinky and BeeBo) reading stories before bed. It seems that Anna's stuffed animals have taken on a more important role since we've learned about a stuffed bear named Corduroy.

Cute, and I have started the dress up clothing thing already, with the purchase of a floppy purple hat. I think dressing up is something every little girl enjoys.

I love the moment you captured of Anna painting! Her face says it all. I love that your pictures aren't 100% posed and you capture real life. Your stories are so wonderful to see and read about!

I just downloaded Hipstamatic, too! LOVE IT! So much fun for $1.99! (See my next post . . .)

I think Anna looks more like a little monk.
