Birthday Pics!

Why, oh why, did I think it would be a good idea to take studio pictures at the end of a busy two-toddler trip-to-the-zoo-then-short-nap birthday? We went on Miranda's second birthday to take pictures and it was quite a fiasco, this photo shoot. Even though she just turned two, Miranda is well into the terrible tantrums and this day was no exception! We finally brought out some balloons and then toy cars and we were able to start getting some good shots. It all turned out well, I have smiley kids ~ they just took a little coaxing.

We changed clothes and brought out the beloved race cars from home, and luckily were able to coax a few more good shots out of them before they totally lost their minds and wouldn't smile anymore!

Miranda was just about done with this photographer lady

We asked them to make silly faces in hopes of catching a laugh
