Don’t you have an older daughter?


I’ve had several people say our blog is weighted toward the boys. That’s because the girls don’t like their pictures taken. You can’t take a picture until they’ve showered and fixed their hair, they have to approve the photo, etc. I managed to get a few pictures of our oldest “bee” getting ready for work on our SNOW DAY. I’m not sure all of these pictures will actually pass the test, but here they are… the best of the ones she let me take!

She really likes her sock variety so I think I’m ok with the above picture (LOL). Below she is checking out the winter coat which has been in storage since being dry cleaned this spring. Looks like it’ll last for another winter season.

This is her work uniform. There is a mirror in our bathroom which you can see from the kitchen and we always have to check just before we leave the house to make sure everything is just “so.”
And… off she goes…. after coming back to give Nathan several hugs and kisses!

Yes, we have certain “restrictions” too! Actually, I can take pictures anytime, but most of the time she’s glaring at me, rolling her eyes, or baring her teeth. LOL! So for the sake of family harmony, I always ask her first if I can use her picture.

Funny thing is that she’s complained to me several times that I take more pictures of DS than of her. “Well, he doesn’t SNARL at me dear!” lolololol….

LOL. Dd doesn’t really have an attitude about having her picture taken, she’s just picky about what I can put on the blog (LOL).

I have more pictures of the boys because they are with me more of the time, I suppose.
