AWOL camera and other tales

The camera had gone missing for a few days, and so Tish couldn't take any pictures. So there's not a lot to post. It's been found again, so more pictures will come. I think the time to retire it has finally come, though. The shutter speed on the thing is abysmal, and if you don't use the flash, then there is guaranteed motion blur. But using the flash constantly drains the batteries... So I'm going to ask for suggestions for replacement models. Probably the only one who can't make a suggestion is Michelle! Hehe. She's a camera-phile, and I doubt I will ever be able to afford the monster she has! But you can still make recommendations, Michelle!

I started having problems with my SDA - the problem being that the vibrate feature stopped working. I almost constantly leave my phone on vibrate, and without it, the phone would be pretty much useless. It's still under warranty, but in order to go through the "troubleshooting" steps, T-Mobile tech support had me do a factory reset. That meant that I lost all my text messages and picture messages from the last year. In this phone all these stay on the phone, and there's no way to move them to the SIM card. Oh well.

She loves to put on shoes and walk around.

In one of my other posts I mentioned how much Priya loves The Backyardigans. Here's her face every time the show comes on.

I love her facial expression when she sees her show, so precious.

Why is it that every dad has to throw their children in the air?

I have been searching for a camera, one like Michelles monster and I found one on Ebay and then some. It had a TON of extras, not useless extras, nice ones. Like lenses, and filters and cables etc. I am so tempted to get it.

My family is probably going to buy this camera this Christmas:

Priya looks so adorable. What a precious little girl!!
I am no help in the camera dept. We have a Kodak easy share and we love it, but it is not a very special camera, I'm just a simple gal. Michelle's does way more tricks than mine.

canon is the way to go. they're known for their quality digital cameras. i have a powershot sd450 as well and i like it quite a bit... but i get a lot of red eye which is annoying when you've married into a dutch family. I'm forever editing blue eyed folks from looking possessed. I mainly use it now for a diaper bag camera and its video features. If you'd like to borrow it for a few days to see if you like it you're more than welcome. I mainly use "the monster" these days. :)

Such a cute video! Hayden gets all excited when she hears a certain song on the radio...."Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley, her eyes light up and she starts dancing. I have been trying to catch it on video, but she then thinks she needs to start waving and smiling at the camera. This makes it hard to get those candid moments on DVD.
