18 month Picture Adventure

Last Saturday, we took the girls in to get their 18 month pics.  Whew!  We were exhausted!  Going anywhere with triplets is an adventure...but trying to take pictures of the three of them is a whole different story. :) It was fun though!!  We didn't even care if the girls were smiling....in fact, we didn't even care if they were LOOKING at the camera.  We were just happy if we were able to get all THREE of them in a picture!  They were running all over the place.  I'd prop one down, Ry would prop the other, then we'd run across the room to get the 3rd and by that time, the 1st one was already on to the lego table and then we'd have to start all over.  It was pretty funny actually.  Addison kept thinking I was going to leave her so she had a rougher time with the pics.  No tears though so that was good.  Then, when I was deciding on the pics, Ry was in charge of watching the girls.  After 15 minutes of chasing them and keeping them out of other customer's business, he just put them in the van and drove around the parking lot for the next 45 minutes.  The girls fell asleep in the van and that was that.    Nothing but fun on an early Saturday morning! ;) 

Here the girls are (Emily, Addy, Hailey) playing Ring around the Rosie.  It was the only way we could get them to semi- stay where they were supposed to be.  They took 140 pics and these are the best of the bunch. :) 


We tried distracting them with flowers so they would stay put.  Didn't work so well.
Where did Emily go?  We often found her in ANOTHER studio with other children.  We were sweating. :) 
Addison just wanted to be by me.  
The Easter eggs don't really belong in the pic...but hey - we don't care!  At least they would sit for a second! :)      Hailey
