We had 'family' pictures out at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens today. We had a very patient photographer who did his absolute best to catch the 5 of us smiling at once. OK, trying to catch 4 of us smiling and Luke looking in the general vicinity of the camera. All I keep thinking is, "Just one picture, that's all we need to turn out is one picture...". We are good for about 15-20 minutes of cooperative behavior before the "other" side of my children comes out. Once the 'other' side comes out, there is no amount of bribing, threatening or cajoling that will get them to cooperate. At that point, we cut our losses before someone ends up with a timeout until they are 8.
As soon as the pictures we done, we sped home so we could go to a birthday party (with chinchillas no less), Natalie's soccer game, the end-of-the-season soccer party, Cooper's t-ball practice, and then my parents over for dinner. AHHH! I need a break!
