A particularly amusing four-shot sequence from our Christmas photo shoot yesterday . . . . And, no, I did not manage to get "the" shot, but what I did get will have to do, because they each seemed to have their own theory about when to sit still and smile, not grit teeth, with their eyes open . . . sigh.
Upper Left: BooBaaa and Lambchop decide to perform one of the Christmas songs that BooBaaa has been rehearsing for his Christmas pageant, much to Ramekin’s dismay. He wanted to sing a different song. (Note the hands; Lambchop has clearly been watching BooBaaa practice his song this last week.)
Upper Right: Ramekin is increasingly unhappy that he does not know this Christmas song that BooBaaa and Lambchop are now throwing themselves into.
Lower Left: Ramekin starts to perk up as the song nears the big finale…
Lower Right: … Lambchop’s can-can high kick! Along with a very pleased BooBaaa, who has sung his Christmas song, and a trying-not-to-laugh Ramekin because I have given up* and am now laughing at them.
*I became rather frustrated during our little photoshoot because I got lots of nice pictures of the trio this summer and fall on various outings. But yesterday ...um.... not so easy.

Cute. They sure have grown this year. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
awww...look at the little lady! she's so cute :-) you'll have to hold her back from the stage!
hmm...maybe fall or summer pics for the card as a recap of the year that went? :-)
I've already been to the printers... maybe I'll do a collage card next year if I plan better and earlier... sigh.
Great to see the pictures - and, in years to come the little story that goes along with them will become part of the family fabric of history!
And they are all looking well and happy. You must be enjoying your family so much.
We are looking forward to family gatherings over the summer - our lot are growing up - the twins now nearly four, and their older sister is five and off to school.
And one of our UK family's has decided to come back to NZ to live - bringing the news that their first child is on the way! So another Grandchild to spoil.
Lovely and exciting news, Merinz.
Merry Christmas.
Long time no see! The kids have grown a lot. All very cute, of course.
Oh my gosh, I love them all!!!! So cute! You could definitely send out the last one. The can-can kick is cute and those smiles are priceless!
I know how frustrating picture taking can be when you have a bunch of kids. Get used to it. ;)
Hope you have a fabulous Christmas!
all four pictures overrun with cuteness. oof. my heart strings.
They are beautiful and I think the Lower Right is perfect. The high kick kills me! Such a beautiful family.
I am busy scanning slides my father took of my brother and me many, many (!) years ago, and it's those wonderful candid shots that I am treasuring just as I do the ones of my own girls. These show their personalities shining through!
Glad to see you posting and happy holidays!
Happy New Year! Anyone would be thrilled to receive any one of those photos - how could you not smile all day?
