oh boy, oh boy…

yes, i have two boys. they are five years apart. and today i wanted to do my own christmas photoshoot and let’s just say everything fell apart.  kai is totally sick, his nap schedule had him to nap exactly during the time to take the pictures (after school)… the sun decided to go away leaving us with a dreary late afternoon… and so on… i’m not exactly sure why, but i just went ahead with it anyways. and came home a little discouraged. however, after i downloaded the pictures, while i didn’t get very many… the ones i got i could look at over and over. i have a favorite in the bunch (wonder if you can pick it out) – it stuck out to me quickly as my top pick. it will go big in the boys room. big! their relationship and connection is pretty special. and despite feeling quite frazzled and messy – i’m so happy we braved the odds and did it. i encourage you too as well, just take your kids out (despite bad weather, bad temperaments, poor timing), and take special pictures of them. it’s sooooo worth it in the end.i was a little desperate to get a few more, worried i literally had nothing… so i gave kai his first experience of a candy cane and boom!! he stopped crying. oh the horrible things we try to just get one shot.
