Some attempts at a Christmas Photo!!!

After three frustrating and exhausting photo attemps, I think we ended up with a pretty satisfactory Christmas card photo!! I usually try to have this done professionally, but since I am planning to take all three kiddos in when this baby pops out, I wasn't going to go twice!! The actual photo is not posted, but here is a small glimpse into the work that goes into photographing a 4 and 1 1/2 year old!! In this one, Owen is so tired of trying to be good.
My sister is SO FUNNY!! What can't you look at the CAMERA!!
Ellie looks constipated and Owen is giving a look to kill!!


OK , now Daddy is making them laugh too hard!!! How do professional photographers do it?! Owen was either flapping in excitement, crying in frustration or actually cooperating. But, rarely did they cooperate together!!! Ellie is old enough to know to try to smile, but it looked so funny and strained!!

Such cute pics! I think when I take pics of Olivia I get one good for every 20 shots. She will move, make a weird face, get mad....you know how it goes. Corinne, hope the little bun is cooking up quite nicely, not much longer right? Tell Travis hi and hope you all have a good holiday-

Cute pictures Corinne! It looks to me like you were having a pretty good photo session, but I know how absolutely frustrating it can be. I sometimes scare myself with how crazy I get trying to get the kids to hold still and pose for pictures :)! Just wait until you have 3!!!!!!
