We took the girls for their Christmas portraits and to see Santa last Saturday. Up until now, our portrait experiences have been pretty interesting. Lots of tears, running around, and general mayhem.
Every time I hope they have reached the age where I can bribe them with a lollipop to sit still.
This year, it worked.
Amaya is better than Rosie at smiling on command, but at least there was no crying like last year! This was AFTER they photoshopped out as much of Rosie's tears and red nose as possible.
They were excited when the saw other kids posing for pictures and couldn't wait for their turn to come. Sweet relief for mom, dad, and Aunt Kate.
Last year they couldn't be bothered. This was actually my favorite photo from last year's session because it perfectly encapsulates what they were like.
Even our Santa visit was a success! No smiles, you say? Well...
...I don't know if you remember last year, but Santa does.
That Santa hasn't aged in the last year, but the girls sure have, and it freaks me out!
Here's to smooth sailing this holiday season! We are off to a good start.
You might need a new Santa next year...he looks mad!
