Getting a picture of Nolan is getting to be more and more difficult. As soon as I get the camera out he's on the run, I feel like paparazzi chasing him around! I have figured out 2 ways to get him though: The most effective option is to ask him what should I shoot. It goes something like this: "Nolan I want to take your picture, what should I take a picture of today?"
 |
| Nolan's response, "I want to get really really close to the camera!" |
 |
| "I want a picture of my car running into my train." |
 |
| "Mommy! Take my picture!" through snorts and laughs. |
In this set up he lets me click away until I tell him I got it.
The second option is to surprise attack him.
 |
| Click! |
 |
| Click! This was taken right after he woke up. Miles and I were trying to get a few summery shots in the sun (you will see these pics soon I promise) when Nolan joined us for a post nap cuddle. I love that time each day, right before his energy kicks in again and he runs off. |
 |
| Click! Nolan figured out that if he plays with his toys on top of the coffee table, Miles can't get to them. Am I happy that he is already not wanting to share with his brother? Nope! But it's pretty smart so I give it to him. |
This second tactic is difficult because as soon as he hears the click he is off to hide. So I better have gotten it on my first try cause I don't get a second chance.
