When being in front of the camera did not work at all, we decided to try letting him be behind it. Since the moment we handed him that little red Samsung camera, he hasn’t left home without it.

Here are a few of my favorites from his memory card:

those are cute little piggies.

Clearly, the frog was more interesting than Lydia.

That’s “baby.” Baby sleeps next to him every night and gets lots of hugs and kisses (and sometimes can be found wearing American Girl doll clothes).

Poor GeGe.

That’s my can-I-stop-smiling-yet smile which is slightly more flattering than the following two pictures I found on his camera.

He chose that filter as he photographed Lydia’s gymnastics class.

This is exactly how it was. No editing. No cropping.

I hope these stay in his personal memory card for a long time.
