Photo Session Failure

The other day, I took some pictures of Dylan, using the black & white setting on my camera. I thought some of them turned out pretty cute, so I decided that I would try to get a cute one of the two kids together. Well, that is much easier said than done. Granted, I am not anywhere close to a talented photographer, and I’m working with a pretty basic camera, but it was still a comedy of errors. Abbey loves “holding” Dylan; she also loves poking and prodding at him. Thankfully, he generally puts up with her antics and just looks a little annoyed by the whole thing. He smiles at her and sometimes coos, which sends her into giggles, because she thinks he is laughing. I can’t wait until he really does laugh; she is going to get hysterical.

I digress, though. I took a bunch of pictures before I realized that I was NOT going to get a “good” one. So I settled for some funny ones, with a newfound respect for photographers that manage to photograph more than one child at a time and make both of them look happy and beautiful. I have a friend, Joann, who takes great pictures of her kids all the time. Color me jealous!


Abbey has countless expressions, but Dylan is holding his own.  He cracks me up, because in some of them he looks like he is wondering what kind of crazy house we're raising him in!
