As much as I love the Christmas pictures I took of the kids, they were definately NOT my early Christmas present...are you kidding? What Mom takes Christmas pictures right after a lunch of spaghetti just before naps?! I about pulled my hair out! And of course my fave photo was nearly useless because Roman had a spaghetti spot on his cheek. It was only thanks to Carissa's amazing friend (Aly) and her PhotoShop abilities that my picture was saved.
First things first, my early Christmas present: my nephew, Cole David Pearson:
And now to show my attempts at a Christmas picture:
Hayden was impatient for pictures, he demanded a picture before Roman was ready, so here's our solo shot.
For some reason, Roman is clapping, and even though I'm yelling, "Look at me!" they are looking at anything but me.
Again, not looking at me, and I think they are yelling. I said, "Say Cheese!" but I'm not really sure why they are yelling.
Oh great, now they are looking at me, but Hayden looks angry even though he is yelling "Cheese!"..I can't use this photo!
Roman looks good, but Hayden looks like a buck-tooth rabbit (I'm his mom, I can say that!).
Here's the finale...except there is spaghetti on the right-side of Roman's face. This photo might not show it, but printed photos were very obvious. And Hayden's face is all cheesy but he is still cute and they are actually both looking at me and smiling. I'm the best (and most frazzled) photographer EVER!

Cole is definitely an early Christmas present, especially since we get to hold him and not worry about the late feedings, etc. I love the picture of your kids, though. Way to go, to finally get a picture of both of your kids looking good, even though you had to take like 40 to get the right one.
Cole IS an early Christmas present! Now no one can say I didn't get them anything for Christmas! And I think your pictures are all cute. You should get a collage photo frame and put all of them in there so people know what hard work you put into your Christmas pictures!
I thought I commented on your blog. I'm so sorry I've been such a blogging slacker. I meant to tell you how stinkin' cute your boys are. They are such a crack up! I can't wait to hear all about your Christmas. Love ya!
Such cute pictures! We really miss you and your kids, oh and Jage too. :) Hope you are having fun in Seattle with everybody. We've had a pretty quiet Christmas around here, but it's been nice too. We started a blog today and I look forward to the day it can be close to being as cool as yours. I have no idea how you put all those links on yours but it's very impressive. Merry Christmas!
Successful pictures and congrats on the nephews.
