Dirty little secret

So here is a story we all know. The story of a mommy who picks the perfect outfit for a certain little being. Sets up a perfect background and tries her best to set up a little lighting. Baths the little person makes her look all shiny and new. Not a smudge of dirt or grime. Lays out the daddies outfit that matches oh so perfectly to her own. buys some high artillery bribery to assure cooperation from all. Then when she thinks all i's are dotted all t's are crossed she tries to gather her family in their finery.
And...........................................
this my friends is my only willing participant.
so.................as long as someone is willing mine as well take advantage.

Just a girl................

and her dog.


After a mommy meltdown (a few expletives were yelled, at the camera not the little person), a daddy savior came down and saved the day. A lengthy very whiny frustrating time out was given by a super patient man while the mommy hid in the bedroom and told herself to breath in exhale and repeat..............Very strong willed girl decided to cooperate and I did get my perfect family portraits and now you know my dirty little secret.

Well done and congratlations. I can't wait to see the final product. I gave up and am still not sure what photo will adorn our Christmas Cards. Ah well, it will make for a good story another year.

Sounds like most of my days :) I think last year I screamed and threw a huge fit trying to get Christmas Card pictures. It was NOT a good day. I am glad you were able to finally get a family picture.

Love the pictures of you and your doggy too :)
