Picture Day With All The Kids

Yesterday I had the bright idea of taking all the kids to St. George to get their pictures taken, while Mike was on his youth activity skiing. Who thought it would be so hard taking 4 kids to get their pictures done especially since the 2 oldest would be there to help. Boy was I wrong!!! I just wanted to update the kids photos, especially now that we have Preslee. Who knew Tahj would be such a maniac in Kiddie Kandids, he usually loves to get his picture taken, except for today!! I had to bribe him by telling him we would go to Target (which is his favorite store besides wal-mart) so he could get a monster truck (his favorite thing), that only lasted for about 2 poses and that was it. Then he started moving all the little furniture around and then he found some basketballs, footballs and soccer balls and decided to throw and kick those while the girls were taking their pictures. Then of course when we were finally done taking pictures (only 2 hours later) Tahj wanted to take pictures, but I had to tell him we were done, so he threw a fit cuz he wanted his picture taken. So I'm trying to look at the pictures and see which ones I like and want, then there's Tahj moving the stools and chairs around, basically rearranging the furniture in there, luckily there was just one family in there waiting. So only after being at Kiddie Kandids for over 2 1/2 hours we finally got our pictures and we were out of there. And the girls working there were probably saying the same thing, glad that family is gone!! So next time I say I'm taking the kids to get their pictures taken, either remind about what happen last time I did that or make sure that someone is going with me so I don't go crazy!! But we did get some cute photos of everyone, so maybe it was worth it!!
