We got some rechargeable batteries today so he can use it much more often and hopefully that will help he get to grips with it. He desperately wanted to take a picture of his toy hoover today so I left him to it he got some of the top but his fingers kept crawling in the way again. He can do it, its just how to hold it that he struggles with I guess its because his hands are small and its all a little odd but he's getting better and better and he knows what he wants to take pictures of which is lovely. I just stand behind him saying 'don't forget to keep your fingers out the way' 'don't move it when you press the button'

This is one he did completely on his own whilst I was out the room.

'Daddys breakfast'

Still trying to teach him how to use it. And no matter where we are he wants to take pictures of buses :) we're not at the stage yet where he'll take a picture on his own but hes trying. Its quite a small camera and his main struggle is keeping his fingers out the way, or keeping it still enough when he takes the picture. But here are his pics from the last few days. He told me he had lots of fun taking them.

On the way to 'Car Nannys'

 

This is a lovely picture of the water and geese but have a feeling he was aiming for the bus.

'I did take a picture of that bus...and another bus Mummy'

First pictures

 Ignore the dates and time. We didn't correct it when we put it on for him.

Sams blog.

I'm making this blog for my son and as he gets older he can help me with it, but thought this would be a great way to archive his adventures.
He got a camera for christmas after several attempts to hide mine from me. Its taking him a while to get used to using it and some of these pictures were taken with a bit of help but I'm sure he'll pick it up in no time he's a smart kid! Hes been super excited by all his toys he got for Christmas and his birthday so has been a bit distracted from sitting down and learning how to use this, but the plan is we will take the camera out with us and  he can take photos of whatever he likes and then I will upload them and they will be on here and we can all see how exciting or scary or confusing the world can be from a 3 year olds point of view and it will always be here for Sam to see, as hes older and he can look back and see everythings hes done. We all know laptops break and photos get lost so this is my insurance on his memories.
So here goes...
