Caught me!

So, my plan was to get some good pictures taken of my children for Christmas to send out...what my friend caught was me yelling at my son...well, not yelling, but talking sternly to. Oddly enough, I suppose that I never realized how the tone of my voice effected Christian's reaction. Not that I would change the tone of voice I use when I get onto him for something that I didn't want him to do. Anyway, here are some of the funny pictures (or mean), whichever is preferred...

Here we start out...Christian WILL NOT look at Sheila...so, I push him away and tell him that he can't be in the picture thinking that it would have a reverse psychological effect and that he would actually WANT to take a good picture with Brooklyn and I.


Boy, was I wrong...he wouldn't come back into the picture. So, me being even meaner, I continue to tell him to stay out of the picture.


He starts being a little brat, so my tone becomes a little harsher.


Now, Sheila is my savior and tells him that if he comes back that he can have a sucker once we're done. He decides to come back into the picture, but continues to cry...and me being the mean mommy that I am, I tell him that he can't be in the picture if he doesn't stop crying and he doesn't get his lollipop.


Somehow, Sheila worked her charm, so we ended up with this lovely picture...thank goodness for my "She She!"


Gosh, I'm really mean!!! My poor children!

I didn't realize that the whole time I was talking to Christian, Brooklyn had the same eyebrow expression that I did. Maybe it was the sun!
