Picture Day

Well, it was picture day at Kelly's daycare this past Wednesday. I was really excited about this as I have not been able to get a good "posed" 2-year old picture of her (see blog entry "say Cheeeesee, Pleeeese!). I went thru 3 outfits and finally found the perfect one that fit and looked adorable. Here she is all dressed and ready to head out to school.

Weeeeelll, on the way from the front door to the car, she took off, as she often does, and I had my hands full and couldn't catch her in time before she fell flat out and tore thru her pretty pink tights and skinned both knees. I thought about trying to snap that photo, but it just wasn't happening - I had to get to work and it was all I could do to get her to calm down, stop crying and get her to school. I thought about taking her inside and putting on a new outfit, but I just was done. So, we arrived to school with her pretty pink dress and crocheted sweater, hair in a bow, pretty pink shoes and tights with holes in the knees, and I told them, do the best you can!!! They told me that the pictures were wonderful....I get them in a couple weeks and will of course show you the final product! (they did get one with the ripped/dirty knees showing!

How funny. Now that you have a blog do you find that you're looking for a little more from your pictures? "I had my hands full and couldn't catch her in time before she fell flat out and tore thru her pretty pink tights and skinned both knees. I thought about trying to snap that photo..." I give you credit though-- late or not I would have gotten the shot! I probably shouldn't admit that huh?!?
