Following in her BG's Footsteps

The other day I was taking some incredible footage of Kate "doing circles and leaps" in the dining area :) She'd have me video her and then she'd want to watch herself over and over again until finally that lost her interest and she wanted the camera. I put the strap around her neck and showed her how to look through the view finder and take a picture.
Well, I became distracted with trying to clean a pan that we had made potstickers in the night before (which by the way, Joe says even though the potstickers are delicious, the clean up is so awful, he doesn't want them any more! Anyone have any tips? They are the Costco ones...), and the next thing I know, there are 37 pictures that Kate has captured.
As I scrolled through all of them, I found pictures of my knees...my butt...Kate's chin...and and then some of Jake that made me laugh out loud. It's great to be able to see life through a 3 year old's eyes.
Kate's BG, my dad has an incredible talent when it comes to photography. He knows just how to capture people's personalities and those perfect moments...do you think his granddaughter will take after him? I LOVED this one she took of Jake. How can you not smile when you see that?!

Happy Birthday Jake!!! How fun for you! I can't believe Beckett will be one in just under 2 months. Man how time flies. I found your blog via Elenas and I am so excited. Check out our site sometime
