PICTURES...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I was so excited for today. It was Mitchel & I's first trip to get his pictures done, by professional, and not me! AND now I know why I DID it before. We did some pic's with me & him, then some with just him & then I wanted to change the outfit and get some more of him.... yes it was a grand idea, but in all reality it didn't even come close to happening. He FREAKED. If I was holding him, and right stuck beside him he was alright, but as soon as I tried to leave him there and get him to laugh or even a hint of a smile he was in a hysteric scream, cry, boogers & tears EVERYWHERE. I was trying to distract him by asking him what the different animals sounds were and in between the tears, snorts & snot we would get a sound here and there, then back into crying. I don't know what set him off, but it wasn't pretty. So the very nice lady that was taking the shots left us for a little while to see if he could calm down, but no such luck. He was totally & utterly DONE. So here in a couple of days I'll stick the site you all can check them out on. All in all we did get some AWESOME ones and are very happy. Next time I think we will try this in the morning and not at the end of the day! WOW

Kayla said...: Well I can't wait to see the pictures that did turn out! I've never been brave enough to go to a professional photographer because I'm like 98% sure my kids would throw fits. Luckily for me, my kids have a couple grandma's that love to take a zillion pictures! :); April 30, 2008 at 7:44 AM
Lisa said...: I've so been there. It seems like no matter how high I talk it up or what bribe I dangle, my kiddlins freak out when put in front of a camera. Which is so disappointing because they are in their cutest clothes and were so happy and smiling just a few seconds before. Arrgh!
I'd love to see how the pictures turned out. Keep us posted.; May 1, 2008 at 10:36 AM

Mothers

"Yours is the work of salvation, and therefore you will be magnified, compensated, made more than you are and better than you have ever been as you try to make honest effort, however feeble you may sometimes feel that to be. Do the best you can through these year, but whatever else you do, cherish that role that is so uniquely yours and for which heaven itself sends angels to watch over you and your little ones.... The very fact that you have been given such responsibility is everlasting evidence of the trust your Father in Heaven has in you... If you strive to love God, if you try your best to be the best parent you can bem you will have done all that a human being can do and all that God expects you to do....Remember, remember all the days of your motherhood: 'Ye have not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him, relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mights to save.' Rely on Him. Rely on Him heavily. Rely on Him forever. And 'press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hop.' You are doing God's work."
