Well, I'd asked my brother in law to take pics of the kids and burn them on a cd for me so I could print them at a kiosk for my sister's book. And, he didn't. Instead, he brought his digital camera with him and he was all "I was thinking I'd just load them onto your computer." But, I don't have a cd burner! And he knows that. Oh well. I have a disposable camera that I hadn't used yet, so I did my best, even though the little one (age 3) was in a bad mood and cried every time the flash went off, and then kept hiding his face behind a balloon. And, the older one (age 7) kept trying to smile for the camera, but he can't. He really can't. His "photo smile" looks like he's in pain, so for the both of them I just had to get them when they weren't paying attention, and I hope I have at least one decent one of each. And no, they weren't wearing the right color shirts! ;o)

I use to get really bothered when the kids were crying or wouldn't pose like I wanted them too. Then I thought one day... it's OK this respresents how they are at this moment in time and that's what I journal. "Erik wouldn't stand still for a photo had to walk right up to mommy" next to photo of son's big gray eyes looking up at me from my feet. "Allison didn't like having her photo take. Can you tell?" next to photo of her with her arms crossed and looking up at me from under very angry eyebrows. It's kind of funny.
You found out on your own that catching el naturel without posing provides some of the best pictures.

Just a thought. :-) Theresa in IL
That's a bummer that they didn't come out Luna. I swear some men have selective hearing and selective memory. They hear and/or remember what they think is important. (Sorry to all the guys reading this!) At least, that's how the men in my family are! LOL
