Portraits

well, here are some of the christmas portraits we had taken of the kids..... the best ones.

really one of the only times sprout smiled, which is odd because he normally smiles all the time. but this picture really cracks me up because he looks JUST LIKE a blackjack dealer! does he not?!?! ha!


this is the second best facial expression that bean had during the shoot. although i'm not sure i like how freakin' OLD she looks here! gah!


bean's best facial expression (because it was an honest to goodness smile- actually a laugh) and sprouts "oh no! my tongue is suddenly too big to fit in my mouth" expression. this was really the only good shot of them together. i was hoping for something a little.... i don't know.... closer? snugglier? whatever! maybe i better learn to express my wants to the photographer a little better....

ehh, i guess "you get what you get and you don't get upset." ;)


BUT one picture did turn out A LOT better than expected! LOOK! :)

yeah, we still have bean's fake half smile but really, i got two happy kids ON santa's lap! damn, i'm one lucky broad! ;)

You are certainly right about that last one - VERY lucky! And yes! On the blackjack dealer, ha!!

They are both precious as usual...

honey, I think you over reacted - they aren't so bad! Bean and Sprout are too stinkin' adorable, so of course it's cute pictures! But yeah, a snugglier one of both together would be nice. He really does look like a little blackjack dealer, too funny!

Well, if nothing else you'll have great, funny memories of the shoot. But seriously, I think they're great. The card player and the grown up girl on the chair? Beautiful.
