Photo shoots are HARD when you have a four year old and a nineteen month old. With Porter, we were dealing with smile refusals and attitude problems. With Preston, we were dealing with just general crazy behavior that mostly included running away when we put him somewhere to stand or sit or even heaven forbid we hold him and he isn’t diving head first to the ground. I tried bribing with food, but it was ineffective.
Somehow our photographer managed to capture some moments that made it look like we have our *ish* together, so thanks for that Jacki Raney. Hopefully we can fool everyone that’s on our Christmas card list. And thank the Heavens above for Amazon Prime’s free two day shipping for giving me something to wear. My outfit is linked below and I really think every girl should buy these shoes.
Sam Edelman Leopard heels (on sale for $119 from $140 – kind of a splurge for me, but I’ve been obsessed with these forever and plan on wearing the heck out of them)
Plaid Shirt (only $15 with a looser boyfriend-ish fit)
Tulle Skirt (Under $30 and comes in every color you could ever want)

These are some really great family pics 🙂
These are beautiful! I love your skirt (totally looking it up now!). We “tried” for some fmaily photos today and my 2 year old kept crying and my 5 month’s old hat kept covering here face. hahaha.
Your pictures turned out great. I am always surprised when the photographer manages to get our kids to sit still and somewhat smile or atleast look. Thats why we pay for them.
Omg these are the best! I still need to do something! I LOVE your outfit!!
