Well, now, I don't know, Y. The one where Gaby's covering her face is awfully darn cute ...

Well, she does still look pretty. Just the sitting part needs work! ;-)

But... butbutbut... awwwwww!!! I love the one where the two boys are smiling at the camera and she's covering her eyes. So cute!

Yep, that's a great picture. That's the one I'd use.

The forth one is a keeper! Dang that is soooooooooo cute!

Y, I had the same photo hell at my house this year. I posted a slide show of my efforts on my blog and might just send that out to people... probably for Easter because OMG I have run out of time.

Yeah, I was going to take a picture of my kids for the cards because last year, I got the CUTEST picture of them ever in front of the tree. I sent the cards out like 2 weeks ago...no picture. I gave up. I'm not above getting professional pictures (even though my daughter has only had them taken once in her life), I just don't want to throw money at that when I can do it for free at home! Apparently, I can't, so there goes that theory.

I agree with the internet-#4 is great. One of my favorite Christmas cards ever was from a family with 4 kids, all in various stages of misery. It was pricelwess and captured the spirit of the Christmas card like no other.

You know...I've commented on the adorableness of you little girl...but your boys are very handsome. You are gonna have your hands full once they are a little older and the little girls start hanging out...

And I agree with everyone else...number 4 is great!

I think the one with the giant baby hand in the frame will do for your cards. lol

The last one cracked me up. The look on your son's face leads me to believe he's just about had enough! Cooperating or not, your kids look beautiful!

I love the final shot you decided on. I haven't done my cards yet. Just a little behind.

Do the one of her covering her face. And then come up with a good tagline for it.

I like the one where Gabby has her eyes covered too.

Last year, my sister-in-law actually photoshopped her kids' xmas pictures! She only has 2 kids, but she couldn't get both of them looking good in the same pic. SO - she photoshopped my nephew's head out of one of the pictures he looked good in to another picture that my neice looked good in!

How cute!! We just took our Christmas pics at my moms this weekend. It was verrrry interesting. Kid #1 smiling, Kid#2 pouting because she was bribed with ice cream to sit still, Kid#3 squirming and head turned, Husband not smiling at all, but damnnit it was good enough for me!!

Idn't Photography fun?

OMG that's what happened with me and pictures this year. It was mostly my hand in front of the camera, or someone's hair - did you know what crap is like magnetized if it's right up close? I thought we had pictures of ghosts streaking through at first. I was so mad. I'm hoping the roll I take in tomorrow is better - if not, the hell with it. I'm not even going to bother sending any cards, or take pictures of all the kids 'til they're about 25. :)

That's what you get for trying to pose them all purty and stuff. Just go out in the yard and take some shots of them being themselves . . .

I meant to comment on this earlier- your kids are absolutely beautiful. Those pictures are hilarious.

I love them! I prefer reality :)

They all looked adorable and cute :)
