Christmas Pictures

~Roo'sMama~ wrote: My husband, who wants to be a photographer but thinks he doesn't take good enough pictures, took these pics of Andrew and Alison to give to our parents for Christmas. I just had to share them because I love how they turned out!

Andrew:




Alison:




Andrew and Allie together


Alison was amazingly cooperative. I thought she'd be impossible, but she just sat and smiled, while Andrew was running around and refusing to do anything we wanted him to. Exactly the opposite of the way I thought it would go, but it worked out ok. The only thing he was willing to do was hold Allie ~ it was so sweet. When we got done taking the pictures of them together he sat back down on the floor and wanted to hold her again.

He did very good and you can tell him I said that. Was he able to get Alison to do all that smiliing?? he should be a child's photographer!

Danalana replied: Gosh, they're getting so big
I love the pictures...adorable!

MommyToAshley replied: He did a GREAT job!

I especially love the last one with the two of them together!

~Roo'sMama~ replied:
Thanks! I will tell him you said so. It was really easy to get Allie to smile - it always is. I stood behind him and smiled and talked to her to get her to smile.

Well then sounds like it should be a family business. Annika is a ham but there is only one person I will take her to for pro pictures because she responds to well to her.

Thanks! They are both really good at smiling for the camera - I'm lucky. I think they're pretty happy too, so that makes me feel good.

Thanks everyone for the compliments!
