Be Careful What You Wish For!

Anyone who knows me knows that my holy grail photograph is my two girls together. They don't love having their picture taken to begin with but asking them to sit next to each other is like asking Democrats and Republicans to come across the isle and get along. It just doesn't happen. So imagine my shock and joy when Isabelle says to me "Mama, take my picture with Sophie!" and Sophie actually complied! Now here's the real kicker. I don't actually love either one of these photos. They just look so strange and awkward. It's nice to see a little sisterly love, but this isn't who they are on a regular basis. Now if one of them was pulling the other ones hair or stealing her favorite stuffed animal this would be more representitive of our regular day. But the two of them standing with their arms around each other makes me feel like I've been pulled into some bizzaro universe.

So, welcome to bizzaro world. Enjoy your stay!

  2. I remember your hard time getting the girls together and I think these photos are nice. My sister and I take really awkward photos as well. She'll do her best to look like a model and I look like an old hag (and I don't think I look old or haggish)...and then post it FB. Ugh.

  6. I think these pictures are beautiful. It is incredibly difficult getting 2 little ones in the same picture. You did a great job!
