Playgroup Photos

We have been in a playgroup with some of the moms we met through Gymboree for close to ten months. Now that all of the kids have turned or will soon turn one, we decided it would be fun to bring them all for a professional playgroup photo. So, on Tuesday we took the Picture People by storm, bombarding them with six babies, six moms and lots of Goldfish and renditions of "Old McDonald Had a Farm" in an attempt to amuse the kids. The result? Well, the photos with the moms came out fairly well...as good as you can get while trying to pose six babies at once!

However, we weren't so lucky when the moms tried to walk away and leave the kids for a photo alone. Poor Ben was getting over Roseola and although his rash is faint (and unnoticeable here), he wasn't in the best of moods to say the least. Even the others seemed to be traumatized by this experience, the poor little things! So, we decided to call it a day with our "Mommy and Me" photo and plan to take the babies back in a few months when hopefully we will have more luck!

(l-r) Shayna, Ben, Olivia, Caroline, Teddy and Julia, the "Gymboree Gang."

That second picture looks like they were all being tortured! Poor little things...all probably getting over some sort of ailment! Better luck next time. The moms and babies one was good though. Love, Nana
