Holiday Card

So, our photo shoot went a little something like this...

Alright, I need to get a picture of the two of you for our holiday card:

That was cute, but you can't really see Lucy...

Good, but I need both of you to look at the camera...

You guys, the camera..you've both got to look at the camera...

Alright, just look at Mommy and smile...

No, don't poke your eye out!

 Lucy, look at the camera and smile please...

Don't choke her Jake!

Ok that was pretty cute, but let me get another one just in case.  Let's try something different, why don't you try to go behind the couch Jake...

No that's not going to work, I can't really see you Jake.  Ok come back, let's try it again on the couch:

Yes, that was great!  Except, that toy is covering your face.  Try moving it down a little...

 That's it, we got it!!!

You never knew how much work went into making one little cute holiday card!
