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.
