I almost didn't send a picture. We've been plagued by various illnesses, and things have been tight financially, but then I thought..... The pictures are my favorite part of receiving letters! Plus, it's only like $7 to print them if you have a coupon.
I never made it to my sister's to have her take nice portraits of us. So we herded the kids outdoors today (first day above freezing in weeks!) and tried to get a decent shot. (And yes, Gideon is in his pajamas. It's just normal day attire for us!)
Trying to photograph children is like herding cats - impossible!
Gideon would not stand still. At all. (If they held him, he screamed. If they let him go, he charged straight at me.)
Oh, by all means, let's bring the dog in! That will help......
And of course when Gideon does stay put, no one is looking at the camera.
Almost......
Close..... But I was hoping for better smiles.
In the end, I went with the first photo I took. I wish you could see Zadie better, but they're all real smiles, and it shows their real personalities. And this is real life for us (chaos)!
