Tried to take some nice portraits of Samantha in her new dress before heading out last night.

My son uttered the words I hate to hear, "Smile for Dada, Samantha!"eek.gif

    Nothing more fun that photographing your own posse.

    If your daughter is like mine as soon as you quit taking the picture then she is all smiles!! YOu need to go to the button cam!

    This is so funny and cute. What a darling little girl. My toddlers do exactly the same thing. They already know to never say the word "cheese" unless they want to eat it.
    C and C always welcome.

    It might not have been what you were looking for, but what a great expression! It gave me a nice little laugh and smile in the middle of my day.

    Your children are so gorgeous! Great shots of Samantha! (I have one, too - a Samantha, that is....) How old is she?

    Andi,
    This one is still making me smile even after looking at it for the past 2 days. These shots were literally taken just seconds apart.

    Thanks again for your kind words about my children. Samanth is 2 and 1/2. How old is your Samantha?

    Adorable!!! I LOVE the cheesy grin, I like to take more candid shots of my 4 year old because I get the same look when I ask her to smile, but even still, the "say cheese" shots sometimes end up being my favorite because they make me laugh!!! This is a great one!!!!

    Very cute! The expression changes, but the fingers don't!

    Someday she'll enjoy you pulling those out before she gets married!

    It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    How weird! Mine is 2.5 - April 23rd.... And I still freak seeing your oldest and comparing her to pics of me when I was younger...

    Definitely adorable and I can see why it made you smile!

    These are adorable Mitch! The best part is scrolling from the "serious" face to the "cheese" shot!!! OMG! So fun!!! I have a niece who does the very same thing. I finally had a "talk" with all the adults in the family and requested they stop coaching! :D
