Photo challenges

MY INTERNET IS WORKING AGAIN!  WAHOO!  A few photo challenges first...

(1) Challenge over at the Paper Mama: Eyes.

(2) Paper Heart Camera challenge: The view from above.  I don't know why, but something about that face she's making cracks me up.  It's as if she is trying SO hard not to smile as I was making ridiculous faces and noises at her. :)

(3) Shutter Love Tuesday's theme is Fall.  Now, um, it's not fall in NZ.  So we'll fake it.  There's also no Thanksgiving in NZ (duh), but we can at least pretend!  This is also my photo for A Sorta Fairytale's theme of Thanksgiving- what are you thankful for?  Obviously thankful for my husband and this little turkey below (and she lets me take as many pictures as I want of her).  Simplicity's theme is thankful as well.

(4) You Capture- What Inspires You.  Now yes, this is a picture of my daughter, but it's not my daughter per se that inspires me.  It's more her youthfulness, her fleeting babyhood, and my desire to capture all the little things so I can remember them forever.  It's about capturing moments.  Moments like this one.  Is it the best picture?  No.  But when I look at it, I can remember how her daddy yelled for me to come into the bathroom, and when I got there he said proudly, "Look, she has hair!"  And Riley was totally oblivious to her soapy toupee.  It was cute, and funny, and a moment I want to remember.
