My many photo card fails

 You think after the trouble that I had last year with 1 kid, I would have started the Christmas card photos earlier this year.  But I didn't.  We did 3 different photo shoots on 3 different days.  That's 3 different days of making sure their coordinating outfits were clean.  And 3 different days of making sure Jane's beautiful hair was freshly washed so that it didn't look like a tangled mess, as it usually does. Next year, I am taking photos after Halloween!  Anyway, we ended up using a picture that I took after Sol escaped from a photo shoot and crawled up the stairs.  There's nothing Christmasy about it.  But the kids are both looking at me.  And they are wearing matching outfits.  And Jane's hair is freshly washed. So I'd say that's a win! I  ordered cards today and will keep the actual card a surprise.  For now, enjoy the outtakes!  

Attempt #1, so this one isn't that bad, but Solly looks funny


Solly kept crawling away, so I got some baskets

love the interaction but I wanted these two to look at mama and SMILE!

Attempt #2, this setup didn't last long

Attempt #3, A trip to Michaels for the frame and chalkboard and bead garland to distract the kidos....


not looking so merry here, my sweet children!
