THEY'RE SO OVER ME...

Taking their pictures.

Actually, I take that back.

All of them, but my youngest. She's usually ready to pose for the camera.  Even if it's her fake smile.

I'm "lucky" if I even get a decent shot of my older kids.

They ask "why" I have to take a picture of them.

Or they'll say, "Is this for Facebook? Is this for your blog?"

Pfft..of course it is! 

See that barely there smile on my son's face? And he's the one who is always smiling!!

Wow...HAPPY CAMPER! I mean the one on the right!

I couldn't even get his whole head, but you can just tell he wasn't in the mood either!

Ha...I'm assuming my kids aren't the only ones who get like this, right?

When my boys get tired of the camera, they run the other direction:)

Michelle said...

My kids are the same way.
They wouldn't let me take as many pictures at Christmas this year, for fear it would go online.

I'm not sure what is worse, the I'm not going to look at the camera or the I'm going to make a silly face when I see the camera, lol

Michelle said...

Ha...you aren't alone! My oldest will let me take her picture, but if she really doesn't want me to take pictures she just makes stupid faces, which she knows drives me crazy. The youngest just puts her hand over her face.

Amy said...

Yeah it is hard to get pictures some times.. My giveaway starts tomorrow.. Hope you stop by..

Lana said...

That is too funny! However, at our house it is the hubs asking those questions and making goofy faces. haha

I was just telling my oldest son this yesterday! I almost have to beg for pictures with him! The other 3...all game. You aren't alone, but before you know it...they will want to be in the picture again.

Lyryn said...

Hahah! My 3 year old ALWAYS has a fake smile! lol! Kids!

Stephanie said...

Caleb refuses to let me take his picture right now - It aggravates me to no end!!!! If you figure out how to make them like it again - let me know :)

Liz Mays said...

She's at the age when it's all just a big inconvenience to her! LOL

I hate to tell you, but it gets worse. Bryce has started to rebel by sticking his tongue out EVERY time I point the camera at him. LOL! At least yours aren't doing that, yet. :)

Veronica Lee said...

LOL!! I'm having the same problem with my boys!! I have to bribe/threaten to get them to pose for me!! Welcome to the club, sister!!

Angela said...

LOL....

Together We Save said...

Oh yeah ..... teenagers!

Marice said...

my kid does that too and she's not even a teen yet!

Helene said...

I'm sitting here laughing because my kids say the same thing when I see them doing something and I quickly grab my camera. They roll their eyes and ask, "Are you putting this on your blog?" Well, of course I am!!

We're having a photo session today with some friends' kids and I'm truly worried about how my kids are going to smile. I have 2 that do the fake smile and 2 that do the cheesy silly smile. Should be loads of fun.
