We can't have any more kids for the simple fact that getting a family picture for a Christmas card is about impossible. I design cards as a hobby and spent October and November designing other cards for friends and family and taking pictures. I wasn't worried about doing mine, I would get to it. So today I clean up the kids and haul them over to our friends the Changs to use their studio and take a picture of the three kids for our Christmas card. It was positively the worst photo shoot ever. I took 150 pictures and I don't think I will even get one good picture out of those. Why? See for yourself.

This is what happens when I tell Nathaniel to put his arm around someone. In two year old boy language this apparently translates to "put some one in a head lock".

Then there is Timothy who was in full Temper Tantrum mode.



This is where he just gave up and threw himself on the ground. This is pretty much how I feel at the moment. I'm not sure there will be a Baker Christmas card this year.
Oh Ruth!! Don't give up!! Let me know if you're brave enough to try again & I'd be happy to be the goof ball behind the camera helping get smiles! It's the least I can do as "payment" for your talent & time making my beautiful card!
