Little Rankin

Well, it's fair to say that the new camera has gone down extremely well. I'm afraid to admit it was an entirely selfish purchase, in a bid to tackle the camera-shyness stubborn determination to do the exact opposite of what I want, that Sam has had ever since he's been able to move quicker than my fastest shutter speed.

We had a very unusual day today; all day, at home, just the 2 of us. When offered the chance to go to the park, he announced he would rather stay at home and play with our cameras; a resounding result, if ever I saw one.

He even started ordering me, (his model) around: "stand there, Mummy", "say cheese, Mummy", stick your tongue out, Mummy", etc. etc. Not even Rankin is that demanding, I'm sure.

Oh, and in case you're wondering why I chose this shot? It's so that you didn't notice the chocolate cake around his chops, the dribble down his T-shirt, and his desperate need for a hairbrush. Well, you can't have everything. If only I knew how to use editing software. At this rate, Sam'll be teaching me........
