kicking. my. self.

I did something really stupid last week. Really not smart. I am trying to fix it. It’s not working. Please learn from my mistake.

I showed my daughter the LCD monitor on my camera. & she saw babies. Herself, to be exact. But given her current obsession with babies…this is disastrous. I mean the girl will stand for five minutes and watch my slideshow picture screensaver screaming ‘beebee!’ & ‘mama!’ & ‘daddy!’ And guess what she wants to do the second she sees the camera…

yup. ‘BEEBEEEEEE!’ & she swiftly heads in my direction & grabs it to look at the BEEBEEs. Then she touches the screen like it’s my iPhone, in an attempt to swipe her way through the images. Then gets frustrated it doesn’t work. ::sigh::

& then what? Mama gets NO PICTURES.

So, I figured this month’s image should document this. Here we are…

Month 15: Determined to get what she wants. & doesn’t give up.

[ISO 4000, so a wee grainy. But I still liked it in color. this is me letting it go, remember?]

& shortly after, she noticed another ‘BEEBEE!’

She looooooves babies. Can’t imagine where she got that. ;)

OK, time to add your links! Who joined me this month?!?

p.s. the first week of every month is when my project will be posted here!!

Shannon - I remember when this happened with my first boy! After I got my DSLR I pretty much just let him have free-reign with my old point and shoot. To this day, he takes some pretty sweet video. And his little brother who is One is learning quickly how much he loves that thing. So my solution: just give her her own point and shoot! haaaa.

Megan - Thanks for the tip – it’ll be hard, but already at 9 months Abby really enjoys looking at pictures of herself :) Also – love the pic. I need to join and start doing this – my hubby usually captures at least one of us each month.

Meghan - I was determined not to let my kids find out there was a picture on the back of the camera… Thank you MIL. Now every two pictures it’s “I WANNA SEE”. They’re big enough now, though, that “I will only show you pictures of NICE smiles, not silly faces or cheesey smiles.” “The camera doesn’t like it when you make a wierd face.” Which is like, all the time, with a three year old who was taught to say cheese (again, thanks MIL). However, we’ve taught her to say pepperchini (sp?) which gives a MUCH nicer smile, maybe because it’s a silly word.

Tori @ FIToriBLOG.com - GREAT TIP!!!! I remember Halle did that with the iPod but I can’t imagine if every time you pull out the camera she wants to see the backside…..talk about ruined photos!!! :( I hope you can curb her attention somehow! Cute new pic!
