This is the time of year when I start trying to get a good picture of the boys together. You know, a picture that will look nice on a Christmas card. I have to start way early because most of them turn out like this:

I've already been doing that myself! We took a great picture with The Sprout in Canada but Small SUn was asleep in the car. I was already wondering if I could photoshop him in. ;)
about your question on our blog...no, we have no idea when the referral will come...they have changed the estimated waiting time to "6 months to 18 months"...aaaaacccckkkkk!!!
Each of the Scandinavian countries has at least 30 applications in SA right now, not to mention the other European countries like Holland and Germany.
So there is no way to know!
The couple that got a referral last Friday had waited 15 months!!!
The secret, I've found, is to get a friend to take the picture. My kids never smile let alone look at ME. Try that. Good luck!

LOL They are still cute! I am thinking about using a summer picture this year. I have one good one I don't think I can beat. Snow is nice, but that never works for me.

I consider it a good picture if all 4 children are looking the same direction. Ahh how my standards have changed. :)

I love it:) Have you seen that you tube video of the two teenage boys trying to do a picture for their mom? It's hilarious!

I feel your pain! Only one of my three willingly poses for the camera. But your boys are awfully cute regardless. (:
