Annie to the Rescue!!

My wonderful Auntie Annie came to rescue me once again. I have been begging Josh for MONTHS to get a family picture taken. You may think, "He's three, just pick him up and take him there and he'll be fine." Not so with this kid. If he doesn't want to do it, he WON'T do it. He had to get his picture taken at the gym when we joined and the ladies in the day care always laugh when I check him in because the picture is of me holding his face toward the camera and him screaming hysterically. So Lauren and Taylor talked Josh into getting family pictures done today and I did a little bribing of (Up)Chuck-E-Cheese and he was good to go. We talked it up all day yesterday and he kept saying he was going to smile and be happy. The friend that I had all set-up to take the pictures couldn't do it at the last minute. I was desperate to get them done today. The weather was in the 60's and Josh was good to go. I was afraid he would never agree to do it again if we didn't do it today. I called Annie and, of course, she was happy to drop everything and meet us at the park for pictures. They are all on her camera so I haven't seen them yet, but this is a cute one I got of the three kids. Thank you, thank you Annie!! Look for a (hopefully) cute family picture on your Christmas card from us :)
