A glimpse of the effort behind a monthly picture...

I have been wanting to post this too for a while.. and finally getting around to it=)
You all get to see the lovely monthly photo with update every month, and I simply can not believe it's almost time to take the 9 month shot!!!
Anyways...every month since about 4 months, we end up just snapping away, making noises, funny faces, etc.. hoping to get a decent smile...and end up with probably about 40 photos to sort thru...with a short list that looks something like this...

Looking thrilled...

Hmm, there is that sticker again...

You think I am going to smile...?

haha, got the sticker...

Have to mouth the sticker...

I'll give yall a smile...thrilla style=)

Ok I guess I will give in and start smiling...

smile, without the 8 month sticker...

funny face time..

How bout this one mama? Oh, such the 8 month personality...

We finally ended up photo merging 2 photos together ...and got what we needed=)

I can only imagine what a challenge this next shoot will be=) Nine month photo and update coming soon!!!
