Photo Op

Over the last couple of weeks I have had this photo bug where I have felt the need to document more of the boys lives in pictures. This may have to do with the fact that I know that there is a baby coming soon and that my focus may be on other things, but whatever the cause the boys haven't exactly wanted to be the perfect models for me in fact I think they have felt more like victims of my insistence on always taking pictures.
This last week we went up to visit my Uncle Tracy and Aunt Glenda in McKinney Texas after dropping Alan off at the Love Field Airport. We got there a little early and decided to go to the park and wait for them to get home from church. Obviously this was the perfect opportunity to take pictures, right? Jacob was less than thrilled about it and Sam wouldn't sit still.

This is a typical Jacob scowl which he has perfected through the years and really loves to pull out during a photo shoot. Unfortunately this was the only "usable" shot because all the other shots were of the back of their heads. Later that week we went to the zoo and I once again attempted to take pictures of the boys. Sam was willing.

Jacob was not.
I attempted to get him to cooperate several times, I will not tell you I am above a bribe to get a good picture, but even that didn't seem to work. So Sam in his brilliance decided to take things into his own hands and get Jacob to smile.

This seemed to do the trick.
Unfortunately Sam decided all of his good pictures were taken by then so this is what I ended up with.

Oh Well, I will just have to try again. Lucky them.
