Family Photo Required

 

For the past two years I have needed to conjure up a family photo for Joseph's preschool.  Last year, since I was with child, I cheated and used a photo pre-pregnancy.  But this year, Charlotte is the preschooler, and since our family grew last year, there was no cheating, I needed a current photo.  

In my usual procrastinating style, I waited until the last minute and was skeptical at the results.  But, I was pleasantly surprised.  I made a makeshift tripod with an old high chair and cook books and waited until evening.  Betsy was tired, having fought her afternoon nap, but I have several shots where she is looking at the camera.

I am looking forward to the next few weeks.  Joseph needs Kindergarten. Where he was once nervous, he is excited. Plus I think a more stringent routine will be good for everyone.

Sorry this post is kind of lame, but I wanted to post the family pic.  Also, I am guessing, Joseph may not be the only person freaked out by Humpty.
