Now I Get It

I used to be confused about why certain families started doing reality shows.

I understand why fame-hungry, attractive, twenty-something people do reality shows.  It seems that the best way to score an US Weekly cover and demand lots of money for public appearances at clubs is to do some extremely embarrassing things on TV, so that the rest of us can't drag our eyes and ears away from the trainwreck.

But people with kids?  And real houses?  I didn't get it.  Was it only for the money?

I had an ephiphany about their real reasons this Friday, when we spent the morning with some of our besties, Colleen, Brendan, and Lainey.

Those people with lots of kids that do reality shows?  They just want the professional photographers around to get decent pictures of their families.

This was the first time Colleen and I really tried to get a picture of the four kids together, and it was a comedy of outtakes.  Thank goodness for digital cameras, because there's definitely a lot of non-keepers!

Abbey looks nervous 
Lainey looking cute
Brendan and Dylan chatting it up 
Lainey starting to look uncomfortable
Abbey and Brendan are spitting
who knows why three-year-olds do things?

Brendan's cheese face
Lainey practically on her back
Dylan with a mouthful of Cheerios
Mommy gives up
