Taking Pictures

If any of you have ever tried to take pictures of five kids between 2 months and 3 years old, you know that it's near impossible to get them all looking at the camera... forget getting them all to smile. My kids have spent almost everyday of their lives with the Snow kids and I wanted to get a picture of the five kids together before they all move away. ::sniffle::



I love how they all show little pieces of their personalities!

While I wanted a picture of all the kids, my main objective for this morning was to get new pictures of my own kids. The pictures I have sitting on my entertainment center are of Annie and Alex last September. Annie has changed just a little bit since then. The two of them were being less them cooperative. Annie wasn't being too difficult, but she wanted to eat the grass more than look at me. Alex, on the other hand, was just being plain difficult. I got a bunch of shots like this.

The day wasn't a total waste though. I did manage to get a few cute pictures... thankyou to "Uncle" Rick for acting like a goof behind me.



Five kids are hard to get a picture of, but I wasn't expecting to get the perfect picture of the five of them. I wanted the perfect picture of my two... well, they weren't having it. I took 200 pictures of my kids and I didn't get a single really good picture of both of them looking in my general direction with a pleasent expression on their faces. I did get a few true to life shots though. They aren't portrait studio poses, but I kind of like them. Please vote on the right for your favorite. I'm not sure which one to frame.
