Attempts at Christmas tree pictures

I wanted to take some pictures of Anna in front of the Christmas tree.  But I'm not the quickest with the camera like her brilliant Daddy.

It takes me a shot or two to get things the way I want it.

However, Anna has recently fallen in love with the camera.  Not in a "smile and be cute" sort of way, more of a "please give me that so I can slobber it" kind of way. (Of course, that's cute too)

My only strategy is to set her across the room and try to get the camera to focus on her while she cruises towards me.

Here she comes...

I finally figured out if I could get the coffee table between us, it would slow her progress.

Oh wait, here she comes...

I do love that girl.
