Solo Photos

It's rare that I get to play with either one of my ladies one-on-one.  But, for various reasons, it's happened now twice in two weekends: I got to play with Amara solo last weekend and Kiran solo this weekend.

Last weekend, I tried to do a photo shoot with Amara to mirror one I did with Kiran two years ago.  Bee climbs on EVERYTHING, so I was sure she would climb on the chair just like Kiran did.  Nope.  She had bigger trouble to make...

"I'm not doing anything wrong, Mom, I promise."

"Uh, oh."

Okay, so much for the chair idea.  But, surely, I thought, I'll get good pictures if I bribe her with cookies.  Nope.  All I got was this face, which I think means, "If you take these cookies away from me, I will cut you."

The trick with Bee is to never make it formal.  The best shots of her are when she has no idea it's happening.

And then there was Kiran this weekend.  Always a ham.  Today she learned to climb a tree!
