Nikki and I had the bright idea to take Jack and Mallory to Portrait Innovations to get Halloween pics made together. They also had matching turkey outfits from kelly's Kids so we thought that would be cute too. Our appointment was at noon and that place was crazy as usual. Jack went first in his turkey outfit. Perfect angel was all smiles. Then it was my childs turn. She wouldn't sit down or stand still for a picture to be taken. They get out a chair. She did decent...got a few shots. Now time for the pics of Jack and Mallory together. Not happening. Mallory pushed him away, would not sit down or stand still or even get close to him. I thought at this point that things couldn't really get any worse. Wrong. Mallory was done at this point. No pictures were made in her Minnie Mouse costume. She loves Minnie Mouse, but she doesn't like looking like Minnie Mouse! At one point, I asked if anyone in the studio had any xanax. It was that bad. Between the outfit changes, one diaper change, overly crowded studio, me sweating and an uncooperable toddler (that is putting it mildly) I was nearly in tears.
We finally made it home, Mallory had a hotdog and some oranges and we went outside for our own photoshoot.

What did I do mama??


All smiles now that mama isn't paying for the pictures

That's been our Saturday! Now waiting for daddy to get home so we can go to Baron & the Beef. Lord please let Mallory be good!!
These free pictures are great, HA!!! I guess Miss Mal just doesn't like to feel restricted... and that is totally understandable. She was much more comfy just walking around with mom taking pics! I'm sure Jack will be the same way when he reaches her age!!!
