Surprise pictures...

Last week, Ryan and I went to the mall with Angela and Garrison, and Julie and Ryan. We all planned on a quick trip around the mall but as it turned out, the generous folks at The Picture People offered to take the boy's pictures for free AND give us all a free 10x13 photo. I definitely jumped at the chance considering I was less than thrilled with Ryan's 18 month pictures and his 12 month pictures. (Both were nightmares --- filled with tears from both Ryan and I - -- and I ended up chasing him constantly during both visits. It was a nightmare for sure!) Anyway - I was SO happy with how the Picture People operated. Ryan LOVED the toys that they brought out to entertain him with AND there were 2 people there to help rein him in. We actually got REAL smiles and even a couple of "cheese" poses. These are by far my favorite...check 'em out below.

...CHEESE....








(oh - and it's finally time: we need to get his hair cut! :( I'm sad but it's coming...)

Wait a minute! Who is this big boy in your blog? What happened to that little baby I last saw? He is just too cute in these pictures and he is growing up too fast! We need to get the kids together more often! :-)

I'm so happy to hear your great review of the Picture People - and to see these amazing pics as proof! I have a coupon from them for Halloween pics, and I'm planning to take the boys next week.
