I am fairly certain that a nice professional photograph of Adam and Luke together has become my white whale<\/a>. We had their pictures taken earlier today and this was the best picture we got.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At least they were both looking at the camera and nobody was crying.\u00a0Adam insisted on riding the rocking horse. Later he stole the ball from Luke and threw it at the photographer, just barely missing the camera.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s tough to tell in that last picture, but Luke was just starting to cry. I think Adam was planning his escape.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This next pose had potential – they can’t run if they’re laying down. Adam found the flaw in that plan though and wouldn’t stop kicking.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She did end up taking individual pictures of each boy and merging them together to fake a family memory for me. It’s not a perfect photo though (Luke is a little too big compared to Adam) and it was more than I wanted to spend. We did end up getting the\u00a0individual\u00a0photos she used in her frankenportrait though.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are the rest of the photos that we didn’t order.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I love that you can see his teeth in that picture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That little column was surprisingly light. As a result Luke was able to knock it down twice, both times hitting himself in the head. After the second time we put that prop away.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I am not sure if he was on his way up or down in that last picture. He almost looks like he should be on a surfboard though.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I am pretty sure he’s pointing at Adam, as if to say that all the picture shenanigans were his brother’s fault.<\/p>\n
