Family Pictures

Our Family of Four
She did it again.  Mommy made us sit and look pretty for some new family pictures.  She was so excited when Grandpa Young got her a photography session for her birthday.   Apparently, I didn't let her know how much I dislike taking pictures in November, so I made sure she got the clue this time around.  Actually, I think I'm starting to like taking picture.  I can have the worst behavior and everyone offers me candy, toys, or food.  Carey, our photographer, was amazing because she managed to get so many good shots even though I made it very challenging. Enjoy the pics!

So...I'm not in this picture.  Mommy said, "Fine Mia, we'll take a picture without you."  I think she thought that would make me climb on the couch...nope, I didn't care.  Take a family picture without me...I'm holding out for the candy.
Perfect Baby Brother Oliver.  He's too little to know taking pictures is the best time to act out.

Oliver and Me.  They tried to get me to hold Oliver like I do at home, but I wanted to play with the toys inside the box.

I was getting Smarties Candies during these shots...yummy!

Yummy!  Give me a candy, I smile. 



There's your smile Mommy.  Are we done?

I think I remember Mommy asking me to listen to her.



I love him

I will not smile

Okay...so there was this boutique dog store next to the photographer's studio.  I saw this little wiener dog that reminded me of Kosher (Uncle and Auntie's puppy) and I loved him immediately.  I refused to stop kinda cooperating until I got to hug this puppy.  The lady at the store came over after she saw mommy getting upset and said she didn't mind if Mommy used the puppy to bribe me into taking pictures.  So, after a few pictures, I got to hold the puppy. 




I love you Mommy even though you make me take pictures.

Easter


The four of us

On Easter, we played as a family all day. Then we went to dinner with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Darren and Auntie Nidzara.  Afterwards, we went to Grandma's house for dessert and Easter Baskets.  I got two of them and Ollie got one that I helped him go through.  It was such a good day.

Mommy ordered me pizza, but what I really wanted was Uncle Darren's Alfredo Pasta

I love it

Auntie and Ollie...they match

Wow, a flashlight with my name on it
