Laowai

Not much to report here we have been soaking up the last bits of Fall sunshine. 

We went to a Northwestern soccer game the other night. It was good fun. We had a thermos of hot cider and some Cracker Jacks. During the game Bea would look at various players and asked over and over and over “what that man doing?” 

Thanks for the Halloween socks Grandma – Bea didn’t take them off for two days (and nights) straight.

Here’s the soaking up the sunshine part of the post – just some photos from a warm afternoon at the playground. I’ll never get tired of seeing her baby shaped legs in tights. I’m so glad she is liking the tights too.

I’ve been a little bit more motivated to do some crafty stuff lately. Here’s one of the necklaces we made the other day out of straws and paper. This is what she did when I said “let me take your picture with your necklace”.

So why can’t I get photos of her like this. These little girls are so beautiful and so photogenic. I’m starting to think that Bea is cursed with my extremely not-photogenic genes. She has also inherited that mighty cowlick – it’s in exactly the same place as mine. I look over at Bea all the time and think why can’t I capture that lovely face – and then I get photos like the one above. I must get serious (now that I have a new charger for the good camera) about taking some nice photos instead of taking just a bunch of photos.
