Picture Time!

I tried to take some pictures of all the kids together.  I thought about taking them to some professional place to get a picture, but the more I thought about it the less I wanted to do that.  It's kind of stressful.  Sooo, I decided I would just pop them all on the couch and snap a few pictures.  But since I am not a great photographer, the pictures turned out...not great.  But I'm willing to live with that.  We'll go get professional photos some other time.  Here they are...and all facing the same direction!  This was pre-haircuts for Matthew and Grant. 

That night I tried to take more pictures of them in their Christmas jammies.  John's don't quite match.  That's ok, his eyes don't match the other kid's either.  You may have noticed from this blog and/or the state of my house that I am not a perfectionist.  ;)  So semi-matching jammies.  And I think Grant has chocolate on his face.  Did I mention I'm not a perfectionist?  Also possibly lazy.

 But they looked so cute anyway...chocolate faces and all!

I tried to take some individual pictures of the kids too.  It didn't work out that well.  But afterward we watched a slideshow of all the pictures on my computer and laughed and laughed.  Here is a small sampling:

 Big eyed John!

Always blowing bubbles, this one.

 We managed to get a picture of Grant mid-sneeze.  Awesome!!

 Anna being silly!
You may also notice she's wearing different pajamas now.  That's an Anna thing.

 And Matthew temporarily sad about something.

Don't worry.  He was ok and probably laughed the hardest at this picture.

Love you Matthew!

Their jammies all had Santa faces on the feet.  Anna called them "peekaboo Santa pajamas."  I tried to get a picture of all their feet together...but I didn't really try very hard.  John's feet just wanted to go every which way.  So did Grant's.  Sooo, maybe I should leave the photography to the professionals after all, but we did all get a good laugh from the pictures.  See another photo shoot gone wrong HERE.
