Kodak Moments

Eddie has been photographed a lot in his short life. It didn't take him very long to figure out how to smile for the camera. However, things have been different ever since Kristen turned the viewfinder around so he could see himself in it (as featured in the "Eddie Loves..." video).

Now, as soon as we pull the camera out, he immediately reaches for it, saying "Eddie, Eddie!" over and over. He wants to see himself, and he can't be bothered with staying put and smiling. After asking in vain for even the slightest grin, he usually ends up on one of our laps watching and pointing while we scan through all the images on the camera.

We can still capture a choice moment if we are quick. First, we have to be discreet about getting the camera out. Then, we can usually get one or two shots off before he demands to see Eddie. Here are a few recent favorites:

Getting himself wedged between the mattress and footboard of our bed.

Making a used car lot out of my chest.
