Christmas Pictures

Yesterday I took Amy (my 1 1/2 year old) to have her picture done. I wanted her to have a picture wearing the same little red sweater her sister wore for her Christmas photo when she was that old. Well, let's just say, there was no picture taken. She put up a fight like a cat stuck in a box! She was screaming, and every time I let go of her on the platform, she just climbed down. Then when the poor photographer attempted to give her a teddy bear, Amy grabbed it out of her hands and threw it on the ground! So, I won't have any picture of her this year, and I am seriously thinking I will never have a great picture of my kids together. I have never seen 2 kids who hate having their pictures taken! Morgan's school pictures were OK, but you could tell in the proofs that by the 4th picture, there were tears in her eyes. She looks like the saddest kid on the face of the earth! Oh well, I'll just have to hope that I have a great memory so I can take the pictures in my head!
I also want to tell you what Morgan said tonight. My mom and dad came into town to take us out for supper. We were sitting nicely in the restaurant, Morgan and Amy were coloring, and Morgan was talking non stop about anything and everything. We weren't paying a whole lot of attention, just the occassional "Oh yeah" and "Really?'. Then she comes out with, and these are here exact words as I remember them: "but I don't really like it because it tastes like puke!" We were all a bit stunned to say the least, so I asked her what she was talking about. "The bread you bought!" Honestly, I didn't know whether to laugh or what to do! She was so serious, and the sad thing is, I don't have a clue what bread she is talking about! She was obviously telling us quite the story, and we all just caught the tail end of it. Sometimes, the things they say just make me laugh so hard!
