Warning: Do NOT Try This at Home

Well, I thought that I would save money by taking the children's spring photos myself. If anyone is considering this method of frugality, I recommend that you weigh it against the cost of your sanity. I must say that Caleb was quite cooperative despite our mishap with the ant bed. However, the other banshee of a child as well as the incredibly frustrating camera were a bad combination. I got many photos of Madi's back and many more of a blurred floral streak running from the camera. A few of the pictures turned out nicely though, and the one of Caleb sitting in front of the azaleas made the whole maddening endeavor worth my while.
