a good idea to take the girls to a studio to get their pictures taken.
We had a gift card, they seemed even-tempered enough, and I was feeling adventurous.
This is how it went:

This is how it went:
Leah was done, completely finished,after she said "cheese" once.Great.Jenna was only slightly pleasant,and that was IF she was sucking her binki.But binki's don't look great in pictures now do they...The photographer was newand, I swear,has never really worked with kids before.The candy, toys, anything-you-want bribeswent totally unnoticedafter the first 3 mins.Leah interpreted my statement:"can you put your arms around Jenna...yeah, that's right,give her a hug,"as squish her so tight her eyes bulge.Jenna just felt like crying, loud and long, instead of smiling.We didn't get one usable picture of the two of them...
I think we can safely say my good idea was
utterly,
completely,
un-believably
a very bad idea
So much for the new "picture taking" outfits...
and they were so cute.
