Mama Tried Again

I think I've established that it's near impossible to get a posed picture of my children together. But, I'm not giving up.

We were out in the yard playing and I just asked them to get together so I could get a picture. No pressure. I even offered M&M's as a reward. It works for potty training. Not for pictures. It's sad when I dread trying to get a picture of them together more than potty training.

Why Courtney feels it necessary to put Garrett in a headlock every time I'd like a picture of them is something I haven't figured out yet.



And, of course, sticks are way more fun then just looking at the camera one time and smiling...



I finally convinced them to drop the sticks. An ok pic, but surely we can do better. Maybe.


Maybe not...



But it was good of Courtney, so I saved her. One of the many reasons I love digital photography.



Garrett gives the no more, no way sign. I don't give up that easy though.


Now he's serious, "Look here mom, I said I was done."


"Fine lady, just one to melt your heart...be quick though."


I just love that one of him. There's just something cute and innocent about it.

I will keep trying for a good one of the two of them. Maybe one day...or maybe not. I'm not seeing the cup half full at this point. BUT, I do believe in miracles. :)
