Going to daycare: Naiya's perspective in photos

The usual chaos in the morning (as we described earlier), was changed up a bit today when Naiya took my phone and asked to take pictures. A short demonstration ("hold it still, click the little circle, and wait") and Naiya the photographer began her documentation of the trip from home to daycare. She started with a photo of her brother, who was probably playing with something he wasn't supposed to.

There's the floor of our apartment. The beginning of the journey.

Then began the photos of objects.

A snack container.

Naiya's to-go cup of cheerios for the car ride.

The handle of her butterfly net.

Then we got everything together and headed downstairs to the car.

Those stairs look a lot more daunting from her perspective...

Once we reached the car there were a lot of really dark photos on my camera and I think this was her collection of "my carseat" photos. Oh I didn't mention before that she was announcing every photo as she took it. "I took a picture of the bushes!" "I took a picture of my carseat!"

When I heard her taking pictures in the back seat on the way to daycare I thought there would be some cool photos out the window. I was mistaken, but not disappointed.

This was one of MANY "I took a picture of my skirt!" photos. At least 10.

There are the cheerios again. Her muse.

Admiring her sticker handiwork from a few months ago.

Self-portrait.

"I took a picture of daddy!"

The one photo of outside. She was much more interested in her environment within the car, evidently.

After a few blocks of complaining that the camera wasn't working, I managed to test it at a stoplight...with a beautiful photo of our steering wheel.

"I took a picture of my hand!"

She requested an appearance by my hand as well, so I complied.

Ah, the photo evidence of the tattling on Cahlen for eating his shoe.

Once we got to the parking lot of daycare, she wanted to get a picture of Cahlen. I was very impressed by this photo, taken with no help from me except getting Cal's attention.

The parking lot.

A lone cheerio on the pavement. Partially squished, and probably from us from last week.

Naiya's dash to daycare from the car was accurately portrayed with these dizzying photos of the floor in the lobby and the floor in the daycare facility.

My bare foot snuck into this one.

I finally had to take the phone/camera back from the little photographer, but snapped one of the artist before I put it away :)

I think we need to get her a camera.
