Picture Time

Why is it that taking pictures are always so hard to do. First I didn't have clothes that looked good together so off I went shopping looking for a shirt for Brody and/or Gavin. I went to 3 stores and finally found the black and white striped shirt for Brody. Not what I was thinking but it worked; however, I really wanted to do color clothes. So when I got home I thought of people I could call to see if I could barrow a shirt for Brody. Luckily I thought of Jen Johnson and she was a life saver she had a blue polo that I thought would work.

Next drama Gavin got up in the morning with a fever and said he didn't feel good. Great why do they do this to me. Gave him medicine he seemed to be doing ok pictures were not until 3 we went off shopping for Chris' toy left Brody with grandma and grandpa to take a nap. Got back and Gavin was super loud and woke up Brody. Then Brody needed a diaper change and wouldn't go back to sleep. Problem number two, Brody did not get his usual 3 hour nap. Problem number three, I was going to wear capris but I had burned my leg so I thought that was out and went with pants. Problem four, Chris hates pictures which leave me to deal with everything and not get help.

Even with all the problems and tantrums the kids had I still thought we turned out good. Kiddie Kandid in AZ is having an way good deal until the middle of Aug. You buy a CD with the copyrites released with 30 pictures, granted only about half are any good well maybe less than that, but still great deal. So I will explain what I thought was funny about each picture because it was quite the ordeal getting them done. If you want any copies let me know which ones and sizes and I will get them ordered.

We started out good, I really liked the family pictures.

B.

This picture was actually closer to the end of the session when I gave up and just let Brody hold the basketball. Still turned out cute.
C.

Cute Gavin we actually tried to take Brody's picture, but he wasn't being good so we decided to do Gavin. Even Gavin threw some fits and didn't want to do it or smile normal.
D.

E.

This is us trying to get Brody's pictures. I was trying everything to make him happy. He was crying, throwing himself of the ground. This is when I was giving him pretzels to make him happy, he is stuffing them in his mouth.
F.

You can see in this picture what a pain he was being. I told the photographer just to take some pictures I didn't care at that point. I didn't care if he looked mad or had a basketball or what ever. All Brody wanted was to sit in the chair on the floor, not the bench, and play with his basketball.

G.

Still being a stink because I took his ball away.
H.
This one is ok, we got close to a smile.
I.

This one is ok also I wanted him to sit on the block like Gavin but he wasn't having any of that.
J.
This one I don't mind. Brody didn't want Gaving sitting by him. Gavin didn't want his picture taken, but we got close.
K.

This is at the very end when I totally gave up and stuck his pacifier in his mouth. We just needed five more pictrures taken.

Anyway let me know what pictures you want me to mail to you and the size. I can do 8x10, 5x7, 4x6, and wallets. I can also add names to the pictures if you want. My two favorites are B and C for the Family. Both of Gavin's are cute and pick the best of the worst of Brody. Don't think Gavin didn't have a lot of pictures taken, he was tortured also, just most of his others just had his mouth open and were not cute. Brody's just showed his dark side personality, so I had to post because maybe you would want one.
