The Impossible Easter photo


I had forgotten how difficult it was to get a good family Easter photo.  I can remember promising almost anything to just get all three of mine to sit still for a few moments so we could snap a picture.  
Well, kids haven't changed any.  At least now we have digital so you don't feel like you've wasted a bunch of film.  You wouldn't believe how many pictures I have of my furniture and floor because the child in my viewer disappeared before I could snap the button.
We tried to get all 5 to sit on the couch for a group shot. Talk about fun :) - we did manage to herd them all into the same room but we could not get them to sit on the couch together - someone was always taking off.
Here's the best I could get - but I'm sure my kids got much better pictures that they will share with Nana & Popo.
This is truly the only shot I have of Coen -
 this child is forever in constant motion.


Jackson is the only cooperative one -
 but of course he is just beginning to become mobile.


Even Spencer hates to pose for pictures - he use to be easier to catch.
Ayden can almost be convinced if she's being held but you have to be quick.
I managed to sneak this one of Grace while her mommy was distracting her.
If you want to see what most of my pictures look like - below are some of the better ones - I think I had to delete more than I saved because it was just furniture or part of an arm or leg.  It's really kinda funny because they know why you're calling their name so they just totally ignore you or refuse to look at you - sweet little stinkers - they're still adorable cuties.
