Just a little frustrating . . .

I've been taking the kids pictures when they are all dressed up in an effort to memorialize the season. And it has gone about like this . . .

Oh well . . .So I am not really a photographer. We could blame my really outdated cheap camera . . . but I am pretty sure that is not the only problem I have going here! How is it possible, that all of my blogging friends manage to take such cute candid photos of their children? Maybe we truly are just not that photogenic. I say "smile", and I get kids with smiles so big and cheesy their eyes are closed,or they crane their necks so I just get a really cool picture of their nostrils. I say "look at Mom" and they look everywhere but Mom, I take 5 pictures (quickly) and they both say, "too tired" and lay down (top photo no joke).

Silly Kids.

Silly Mom.

I love the pictures and you will look back on them and laugh and remember that it was what life was like at the time. I love looking back at the pictures of my kids acting how they normally act. But I do understand the frustration when you want to get a great "smile" picture.

They look so cute in thier festive clothes. That dress is stinking cute on Rebekah!And there are some cute ones for sure :) We had family photos about a month ago and I think its kind of the age- Anilyn is sure opinionated about when/when not to smile. I'm not even excited about my Christmas card because there just isnt a great one of the three of us. SO basically I hear ya, but I honestly think the pics are cute- and they probably bug you the most. Love ya
