A Journey to Add 2 more: Picture day

Picture day

Kait was the first up to get ready since she had to be to school at 8:45.

I made her a hair bow to go with her "picture day shirt".

I love her toothless grin :) She loves singing All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth.

I love her serious look.

She would not keep her smile so I kept catching all these various looks :)

Brittany doesn't go to school until afternoon, so I made her special hair bow when we got home from dropping Kait off.

She always tilts her head to the side when I get the camera out.

I love her smile though!

She has the best smile ever. Yes I know her bangs don't look the best. We only got told about picture day on Tuesday, so I didn't have enough time to train them (I cut them on Sunday).

She has a "cowlick" on her right side.

I LOVE my beautiful girls!!

Oh, they are so cute!!! Our school pictures turned out terrible this year, especially Dani's. Her hair was sticking up and she was hardly smiling. Hopefully, yours turned out like your above photos.

They are so cute! I still believe the best ones are those taken at home (and the cheapest!).
