Christmas Photo Shoot

Christmas is just around the corner so my mom and Grandma Gerri thought it would be fun to get me and my cousin Madelyn's Christmas pictures taken. On paper it may have sounded like a great idea, but they had no idea what we had in store for them.
Things started off smoothly. I volunteered to get my picture taken first since Maddy seemed more interested in stacking all the chairs in the waiting room. I wasn't really in a smiling mood because I missed my afternoon nap, so most of the time I just gave the photographer my serious face... my mom says I look just like Daddy when I do this. Wardrobe change! My next outfit was another Christmas dress that matched Maddy's. The photographer decided to put me in a box so that I looked like a Christmas present. It was a little uncomfortable but I'm just happy she didn't put the lid on.

The next shot was supposed to be of me and Maddy together, but Maddy bolted every time she saw that camera. You would think she would be an old pro at this since she got her picture taken a bazillion times her first year... but nope. So I had to just sit there in that stupid present waiting for her to sit still and smile for the camera. I waited...
... and waited. Since she was taking FOREVER, I thought I might as well get comfortable while I waited, so I kicked my feet up.
Finally after many attempts, we got the money shot! Aren't we cute little cousins in our matching outfits.
Mom tried to test her luck and put me in ANOTHER outfit... my Texas Cheerleader uniform. But ater being changed 3 times, put into a box, and having to wait for Maddy for FOREVER, I decided I had enough and I let her know it! Have a wonderful Christmas everyone!
