How hard can this really be???






Ed had today off, so I made an appointment to have the girls' pictures taken (together), mostly because I think they are cute. What a disaster it turned out to be!!! Our (first) appointment was at 11:30 this morning and we showed up promptly, and proceeded to get the girls ready for their pictures. Well, the first few were ok, but the photographer had them off center, and I decided that if I was going to pay for pictures, I was going to get what I wanted. By that time, Abbie was tired of holding Katelynne and smiling, and Katelynne was just tired, so what followed was about 15-20 minutes of bribes (I promised myself pre-kids I would never do that), promises, etc., we had nothing but screaming kids and harried parents. So, we decided to try later/tomorrow; but Daddy had to get his car that was being fixed in the afternoon, so we tried again this afternoon, which was a much better experience (it's amazing what a little food and sleep will do for my little girls). Here are the fruits of our labors--we had one compromise and that was the basketball you see in the picture of just Abbie...she thought she just had to have it in there, so I agreed.
