Photo Shoot....and exciting family news!

Monday, April 19, 2010

Here's what happens when Aunt Holly and Grandma Bobbi come up with a fantabulous idea to get all the boys together for a photo shoot! Grandma Bobbi buys the matching clothes (which someday they will make fun of her for) and Aunt Holly brings the camera and we BOTH bring as many tricks as we can think of to turn the smiles on. I'll let you be the judge on our success.

Bennett? Woo-hoo!!! Over here! Look here! Davis, open your eyes!! Carter- eyes on me! eyes on me! Joey - sit up!
Joey- smile! Can you just smile one time? Come on - look at mommy! I'm a monkey! Eee-eee-oooh-ooohh-I'm a monkey. SMILE!! Gma is shaking her booty - isn't that funny? You should laugh at that. It's FUNNY.
Davis, Maddox - quit goofing around and look at the camera. Just stand up, Maddox. Can you stand up? Your cousins are standing up - please, over here!! Joey- where are you going? We're taking a picture!! Bennett- we know you want out of the stroller but you are the only one staying in place so we aren't letting you out. Who got the guns out? It's not time for weapons yet. If you smile, we'll give you a GUN. We promise! Please just look over here and that new gun is ALL yours!! Carter, please smile or we'll take away your cars. Candy! That's it! Who wants candy? Whoever smiles and stands in place will get candy!!!

After multiple threats, bribes, dances, booty shakes, monkey noises and more, we came up with these final two photos!

But, the bigger laugh is that soon we will be adding one more to this mix!!! Cary and Ali are expecting Baby #2 in November!! And, although there's a small part of all of us who would love to see some pink in this photo, I don't think anyone has their hopes up. And, well, if she does try to make her place in this male-dominated group of cousins, well, God bless her. Cary and Ali should be least concerned about the cost of diapers, and more concerned about the cost of therapy for that little girl.

We can't wait to hear what they are having and can't wait to add one more to this crazy group!! The more, the merrier!
