My boys and I

I thought I would try for some shots with the puppy we have been taking care of recently.

I do not like that my legs are straight out and I kept pulling one knee up but I had two kids and two dogs working against me.

I did not tell them to look at the camera.

I just noticed everyone was looking so I looked!

I tried arranging us a little differently but the dogs decided they were done…

“I am getting out of here!”

Abandoned.

I was actually surprised they lasted as long as they did!

I love these pictures and I think everyone had fun taking them!

I have found that if I want a lot of pictures with my boys then I need to make it a really fun experience.

That way they think it is adventure instead of a punishment when I call them over for a pic.

Waiting for morning hugs

I had decided to get a picture with my boys in the morning when they like to snuggle for a few minutes.

I had the tripod all set up with the camera and the remote in my hand.

They of course slept in…

I just got caught up on my blog reading on my kindle until they finally made an appearance.

My oldest gives the best hugs.

(Please ignore the dirty windows. There were curtains up until I pulled them down accidentally and there are killer grasshoppers outside. I have a lot of good reasons for all the other dirty windows in my house also. You just have to give me a moment to think of them.)
