Wordless Wednesday

These are some outtakes from my first sad attempt at taking a Christmas card-worthy photo of the boys. Nothing from that photo shoot was even remotely presentable enough to be sent out to 75 friends and family members (Really? I thought it would work well to stand them up against a brown wall in the hallway?), but most were still pretty cute.



Evan was having a ball...





One of the problems I had was trying to get both boys to look at the camera. Kostyn would be smiling sweetly at the camera until I'd call out "Evan!" Then Evan would look at me and Kostyn would look at Evan.



Um, yeah, that's not gonna work either...



A spontaneous hug caught on film, which is adorable but doesn't quite make the Christmas card cut.



It's a wonder that kid could see anything by the time I was finished with all the flashes.



Finally! A pair of smiles both aimed at the camera. Too bad I don't have a green screen, to make that background into something a bit more festive than the drab color of oatmeal.
