On my photo bucket list

One item on my photo bucket list is to get a good picture of Sadie smiling. Now, let me explain: Sadie is sensitive. Sadie thinks she's in trouble when some of us talk loudly in conversation. She thinks this even though the conversation has nothing to do with her. So she will walk or trot up to whoever is doing the loud talking and start smiling and smiling. It's cute to see her do this, but we tell her that she's not in trouble and that things are okay.

So, one day (soon, I hope) I want to get a picture of Sadie smiling. I hope it'll be similar to this picture I took of Pistachio in Solvang a couple of years back:

Pistachio smiles for me

We're not going to start yelling on purpose at her to try and get this response -- that's just mean. But smiling is part of her personality that I have yet to capture. So getting a picture of her doing this is on my photo bucket list.

What do you have on your photo bucket list?

  1. I have a couple of slightly out of focus pics of Jaime smiling, but I would like to get a full on smiling shot. She smiles when she thinks someone is going to give her a treat.

    1. i never have my camera with me when someone starts talking loudly and sadie decides to enter the room and smiles. she has done it to our daughter the most, i think. sadie breathes through her teeth while she's smiling. it's adorable. i'll settle for it being on video if i can't capture a still.

  2. I love that name! I don't have any smiling photos, either. It's too early for me to remember what's on my list right now, though! lol

    1. sadie looks very much like pistachio, but pistachio also smiles with her mouth open -- something sadie doesn't do.
