Photo Shoot

I have been wanting to get photos taken of the kids for quite some time. I decided that since Joseph has such a good camera I might as well try myself. It is just getting everyone picture ready that seemed so daunting. Well, I just did a kid a day and that made it more reasonable. All I did was some cropping--no editing at all. I printed 8 X 10 and they are all up on my wall now. I am so proud of myself for getting it done. Here are some of our favorites (it was so hard to pick just one to print and frame.)

Juliet--19 mo--the sweetest thing to ever come to us. Her first words out of her mouth were "tank ew" (thank you.)





Xander--6 yrs--my favorite little guy in the whole world. His photo shoot took about 5 minutes. Very cooperative and positive kid. He is in first grade this year. He loves dinosaurs and sharks (anything dangerous with big teeth).




Ella Marie--3 yrs--so full of life and energy and quite loud. She is always getting into some kind of trouble, but she is so affectionate and sincere, and quick to say "sorry." She LOVES to draw and is always drawing somewhere.



Abigail--11 yrs--definitely the hardest to photograph because she hates posing for pictures. I had a hard time getting her to look natural. As our oldest, she is getting more independent and has always been responsible. She just started middle school this year and is loving it.




Magdalene--9 yrs--Maggie decided to go by Magdalene this year in 4th grade. She will still be Maggie Jean, Maggie, or Mags to me (even though I love her name.) She has always been photogenic and natural in front of cameras. She is the petite one in our family and very compassionate.
