Pictures Gone Haywire!

On Saturday, we went to a real photographer (not Sears) to have Brenden's 9 months (ok a little late) slash Christmas Card pictures taken. We originally had the appt for 3:30...then she asked us to move it up to 2:45. What a mistake. We had to wake him up 30 minutes into a one + hour nap and he was po'ed!! He cried, he screamed, he pitched a fit. He basically did every thing he could to NOT smile. Then, at the end we gave him some ornaments and he was screaming with excitement. No simple smiles though. Poor Emily. She (and Elliott and I) did everything we could, but Bren wasn't having it. What is it w/ him and professional photogs? He did the same thing for family pics a couple of months ago, granted he was sick then. Any who...Emily did pretty good with what she was working with. Not sure what we'll keep. We may run to Sears this weekend and get some shots. Brenden LOVES the Sears Portrait Studio! ha ha We'll send out pics once we decide which ones to get!

Here are a few of the ok ones. All pictures by em.d photography. http://www.emd-photography.com/. Probably shouldn't have them on here, but oh well!

I did like this pic. Brenden looks bored, but I don't look like Hagar the Horrible and that's always a bonus!!

The one and only true smile of the day.

hmmm...NO, he wasn't an Angel that day...but he's still pretty darned cute!

Oh...I love these ornament things so much I think I'll scream it to the world!

These are his fun Christmas Reindeer pj's. Rudolph is on the back w/ his name, but we didn't really get a great shot of that.

You can kind of see his bum here.

Reading a book. See how serious his face is? That's how he looks when he's "reading." He's a deep thinker!

Another screaming shot!

I DON'T WANT TO TAKE PICTURES TODAY PEOPLE!!!!

On another note, crazy haired boy is getting his first hair cut Friday! You can see his batwings in the picture above...we must stop the mullet! :-) Pics to follow!

Everyone have a marvelous Turkey Day!!!
