I sense a theme here...

Day 10...
Guess I need to start setting the automatic timer and trying that way...
if this is any indication of how our pics are going to play out the rest of the year...

Also, I need to start showering and getting dressed before taking pictures!
At eleventy billion below zero - some days we don't even bother...

Perfect Record...

So, here we are on day 9 - still at 100%...in terms of being able to pull this off each and every day...

I think someone is getting sick of this game though...
wouldn't you agree?
(I only took one pic with her and called it over tonight!) HA!

He was a tad more cooperative today...I'm sure having to do with the fact that after this picture was taken he spent the next 15 hours vomiting...Not feeling well equals not being able to run the other direction when I come around with the camera!

9 for 9 - not too shabby -

Day 8...

January 8th, 2010

Still going strong...

6 down...

Day 5.

Day #5. For every picture I post, about 2 dozen are deleted. That tells me something. I'm not getting any more confident in getting in the pictures but it's early yet.

Today was a tough day - H was screaming and crying the second the hubs picked her up from daycare and it rarely stopped til she conked out...

And my Dearest D - While it looks like I'm playing favorites...the fact of the matter is, you all but refuse to get in pictures with me...and seeing as how I'm taking about 99% of them myself and my arms aren't terribly long, it's not terribly easy to chase you and get a picture with you at the same time.  Throw me a bone would ya kid?
Love, Mommy

Day 4 -

It's certainly harder than it looks...
But I'm 4-4!

Day 3...January 3rd, 2010

The outtakes might be better!

Officially Day #2 on trying to get in pictures frequently (daily? am I crazy???) with our kids. I'm hoping you'll see a transformation of me going from fluffy to not-so-fluffy as the year progresses...
We'll see.
What I do know for sure is getting these pics is harder than it seems!

Today we visited the Children's Museum and I thought there'd be plenty of photo opps for us...oh, and there were...but just not TOGETHER!

Here's the best we got for Day #2!

She's not as tough to grab a photo with...


But this one...oh, it's a GAME for him!

::shrugs:: oh well - I said they weren't going to be glamorous!

Day #1 - It's harder than it sounds

Well, this snapping pictures thing is a heck of a lot harder than it sounds!

Day #1 - Of course, it doesn't help that it was New Year's Day, eleventy billion below zero and no one felt like getting out of their jammies much less showering or trying to look presentable today!

Here's what I got...







do these count if I'm trying to sneak my way into a pic with D?

The hubs tried to help by snapping a few...that didn't go much better! HA HA!
