I took the kids to the studio today to take the photos for our holiday card. Let me say that my children are NIGHTMARES! 🙂 Actually, just Joseph and Abby. Emi was spot on 100% perfect! Joseph started the entire activity with an “attitude problem”. Abby started puffing out her cheeks and wouldn’t do anything BUT puff them out. Ugh!!!!!!
I almost HATE taking photos of my own kids because they don’t listen to squat and are totally UNCOOPERATIVE.
So, what I got wasn’t “perfect” but it’ll work. The card won’t be shared until … well … it goes out in early December! 🙂
Enjoy!
At one point, something got Emi giggling and she belted out a huge laugh that I caught. 🙂 These are actually the moments I live for! 🙂
I was trying to get the girls to “hug” Joseph, but Abby wouldn’t and Emi was yelling at Abby to hold her hand, then Abby said, let’s do “ring around the rosey” … so I gave up and said … “ok … do ring around the Joseph.” At least *that* they listened to. 🙂
If you think trying to get three together is hard … well then two should be “easy” right? Ha! They wouldn’t stand by each other. They wouldn’t hug. They wouldn’t do anything. So we pulled out the chairs. Emi was all for it, Abby not at all. Why? Why? Why? So, anyway, they finally sat on the chairs and Joseph got them laughing. I guess this is why they didn’t cooperate. I needed all the stress to get the huge laughs. 🙂
Tons more in the November album. 🙂
