At 10 1/2 weeks, I took Ava to have her first "professional" pictures taken. We went to Babies 'R Us.
I thought I had this whole "taking pictures of the kid thing" figured out... I put her down for a nice long nap, woke her up, had her dress ironed and on a hanger, took her to Babies 'R Us, fed her a bottle in the parking lot, burped her and then changed her into the sweet little dress. All in record time! (I did this all in hopes of not wearing out her smiles). She smiled for the first picture, and after that, it was all she could do to not cry...
She hated being contorted into the poses the photographer used. Of course it didn't help that the photographer was BANGING on the little stage Ava was sitting on. I know she was doing that hoping it would get Ava's attention so she might smile... Didn't work!!! :-)
Our kid is pretty simple. You smile at her, she will most likely smile at you. Banging isn't necessary...yet :-) We did get some cute pictures out of the experience, though.
All smiles,
Shelly, Doug and Ava
