Just One.

Posted in PhotoBlogging
(I want to apologize ahead of time to my HSB friends who are also my FB friends. I am just going to copy & paste the commentary I wrote there. However, to console you for wasting your time on this post, the pics DO look better here. I don't like how FB compresses photos. And if you're my HSB friend and on FB, and are NOT my FB friend, why not!? :) I'd love to add you... I love keeping up with my HSB friends there.)

(4-19-09) After church today, I decided I wanted one picture of my children before they changed into play clothes. Just one. It's a lot of work getting six children ready for church. At first glance, I thought I had a good one. Did you see my Christmas card? Do you remember Josiah's face? His poochy lips? Here's a repeat of the incident. The goof.
 


Just to mix things up a bit, he decided to add the "eyes closed" to his "poochy lips" move. Yeah, you're pretty funny Josiah.


To appease his mother, he tried really hard to keep both eyes open. He even was so kind as to prop one open with his thumb.


But the other one fell shut.
Good try, buddy.


Then things just got a little crazy. Gracie's face began to melt. Gabe's head started to fall off. Alek started panting. The baby was getting scared. Millie was clueless as to what was going on behind her and Josiah just decided not to let me see what his eyes were doing at all.


Group explosion. That was the end of that.





Typical of my children. (baby was not harmed. oldest got baby-holding lecture.)


I think this one's my favorite. Josiah just cracks me up. Check out his face in this one. He is so proud of himself for literally one-upping his sisters' peace signs. Although with three fingers up, I no longer believe it's considered a peace sign.


And last, but not least, my crazy 4 year old riding his bike without training wheels!


That's all, folks!

Such beautiful children!
I just love the way you framed the pictures using color to match the kids clothing. I always wondered what it would like should I use something besides black, but since I never seen it done, I figured it wouldn't be good. Now I know different!

These photos are FABULOUS!!!! They will be an absolute TREASURE to your children as they get older. I can't tell you how much I love them. I have a Josiah of my own, her name is Charlotte and she is almost three. Her superpower is pulling out the monster the instant before the shutter clicks. <insert eye roll here> Frame these BIG!

Those are great. Josiah makes me smile just thinking about him and I haven't even met him.

I loved this post. I am glad you did it on both! I really enjoyed the commentary as much as the pics! Do you plan things that way, or it just comes out. My "not so perfect" photos just look bad. They don't seem to make the amusing stories yours do! :)

BTW, I am on FB now. Eva Atkins. I am still trying to figure out what I am doing on it though! I have a brother in Iraq. Ed Short, and he is the one I mostly joined for. Also I am looking at 20 year reunion this summer.

Love, Eva

I don't know why, but it's not letting me login this morning to make your comment, but I it has just been way too long since I visited your site.

I giggled all the way through the pictures of your kiddos. They are just simply outstanding! I love them.
