Picture Attempts... failed


    As many of you know Isaac's transition to big brother has not been an easy one.....for anyone.
Bless his little energetic soul, I really think he tries to be soft but then all of his little emotions of excitement,jealousy, love, and whatever else his little 2 year old body is experiencing explode!!!   Very much like when you shake the pop bottle and open the lid.  I starts out much like this, he's gently squeezing her nose.  Then the gentle squeezing of the nose becomes...
 
a little more aggressive pull of the head sometimes accompanied by a quick shrill scream.... "BABY,BABY, BABY" usually in sets of three like that.
All the time I try to be patient saying things like oh we need to be soft with the baby, or, please be gentle buddy you're going to hurt her.  Then when it seems like all attempts are not working....We end up with an event looking something like this. :(  Isaac loosing control, and Little mothering Lydia trying to keep things in check as always.
      ultimately landing Isaac in "time out" once again.   And leaving my attempt at good picture of the three of them looking much more like a flip book, where as you flip the pages the whole story comes to life.     (We really love our energetic little guy!   He keeps us hopping, and his zaniness adds a lot of spice to our life.)

HAHAHA! That was hilarious. I love the play-by-play. Oh, Isaac, ya poor kid! Yes, nice pictures of all the kids together are definitely hard. Even with Just Jayden and Ryleigh it's hard, which is why I don't have any....Oh, you asked about how I got started with photography. I've always been in love with it, but didn't know jack squat (and still don't). I researched cameras and lenses, got one that I liked and that wasn't extremely out of my price range and then started practicing. Know that someone actually wants me to take their pictures I've been obsessively searching the internet for editing tips, tool, anything I can get my hands on to make my pics better. Let me tell you, Photoshop is freaking hard to do. There are millions of things you can do there, but it's quite fun trying to figure them out. Anyway, I'm learning, but I love it. It's fun to take pictures that I actually want to be framed on my walls. You should do it!

Poor little Isaac (or should I say Lenny). Ask David to tell you about Danny and the kitties... I think it's genetic!
