Camera Hog

Alex's infatuation lately has been having his picture taken and taking pictures himself.  It started at the park one sunny day last week when I wanted a picture of him in his new shades.

The poses kept on coming, so I kept on taking pictures.

It went on for a while...

I'll spare you the other 40, but trust me, each one was unique and worth viewing a few dozen times by the model.

I took a few cute ones at the splash pad which was recently turned back on and we've had weather warm enough to enjoy it!

 
 I love that sweet baby gut...don't know how much longer it will be around because Alex is growing up and slimming down as well.

In the car, it was back to business and the priority of capturing this sweet face for posterity.  I introduced him to the self-portrait mode on my phone.

 He even figured out how to get his picture with Mickey from one of the apps.  Kids and technology amaze me.

At the bus stop the next day he needed some help getting a picture of his gum. Naturally, that turned into another photo shoot of 50 pictures.

Alex took the phone over again and got plenty of other interesting shots, mostly of bricks and grass and his knees, but a few interesting ones in the mix, too.

At Ben's t-ball game I was hoping to just get a shot of the blue mouth of my sweet snow cone lover, but we couldn't stop at one.

No more photographs, please.

The beauty of this addiction is that he spends a ton of time on my phone looking through all 800 pictures, most of which appeared in the last week.  I guess it's time to give the camera to Ben and see if he can do better!
