Hi, this is Owen. Mom doesn’t usually let me up at the computer, being as how I’m 2 and all, but since she’s folding laundry and not paying attention, I thought I’d share our family Christmas photos with you!

The other night, we went to a Christmas party. Mom and Dad thought that this would be a good time to get all dressed up and take a nice picture. Whatever. I was more interested in playing with the toys there and sampling the desserts, so I wasn’t very cooperative with the photos, and Gresham was more than happy to join me!

This is the one that they are sending out to family, because it turned out the best! See how good we are?

They figured it was at least more pleasant than this option:

Aidan looks nice in all of them. He’s no fun!

Since Gresham and I were wearing matching Christmas t-shirts, Mom and Dad thought it would be cute to take a picture of us together by the fireplace. I thought it would be cute to look like this:

Or this:

I’ve heard them saying things I’m about how I’m a ham, and I’m cute and I know it.

I’ve also heard them say that I’m in for a shock when my new baby brother arrives in a couple of weeks… I wonder what that means?

    Beautiful family!

    We have 5 boys and 1 Princess and my goal is to have everyone but 2 smiling. It's a struggle every year!

    Haha, thanks to Photoshop, I was able to replace my 9 month old with a picture of his not crying for our family photo. It was the only photo in which my husband and I looked good (no closed eyes) and my 3 year old son was smiling at the camera and not making faces. I have a 4 year old niece who loves to pose and smile big when she gets her pictures taken, but my 3 yr. old son either won't look at the camera or makes faces. I rarely get pictures of him just smiling.

      I really need to become more skilled in using Photoshop! That's great that you were able to fix your picture!
