A New Toy

While we are obviously parents of a one-year-old little girl, and you would probably expect any toys that we purchase to be used by miss Reegan, the latest and greatest "toy" to come into the Heine home is really for her Mom and Dad. We've been talking about upgrading our camera for quite some time now. We started saving a little bit here and there, and once we received our larger than expected tax refund this year, we made the purchase! A brand new Canon Rebel XS!! It came with a whole kit that included two different lenses and a carrying bag. While this camera is a huge step up from our little "point and shoot" that we had been using, we are SO excited to play with this one. It can do so many things and takes such great quality pictures.


Our main goal is to be a little more artistic with our pictures. Mainly those of our precious baby. Also, to be able to take pictures a little quicker. Reegan would do something cute and by the time our camera would actually take the pic, she would be turned around and we would get the back of her head! The most difficult thing so far has been trying to figure out what all of the features are and then how to edit the photos themselves. For now, we thought we would simply put up a few examples of the raw photos we've been snapping. Enjoy! :)


















Finally, a little bit of humor for you all. If you have kids, you may be familiar with the face Reegan is making in the next picture...that's right - this is her "poop face." We couldn't help but share this because it makes us laugh every time we see her do this. Haha!
