Family Photos

I think I've mentioned before that it is incredibly difficult to get a picture of all the children.

I finally decided to pay someone else to do it. There was drama and it was terrible. So we had to leave and not get any pictures. I was about as angry as I ever get with my children. The only thing saving me from freaking out and screaming at them was the fear that then they would hold still for a second and we would get a mediocre picture and I would feel guilty and buy it and then stare at a picture on my wall of what my kids' faces look like when mommy looses her mind at them. For five years until I get up the guts to try again. That and my mother was with me (your grandchildren are very grateful.)

Fortunately, we just walked away. And made another appointment a couple of weeks later. When Daddy was with us - also candy for bribing purposes.

And I think they turned out pretty well.

Congratulations on the successful photo session, I know how hard that can be. We just tried last weekend and the only pictures with all 4 kids and no parents that turned out cute are missing at least one face. We've got other pictures of his face, so that's okay, right?
