One of my favorite holiday activities is to dress the kids up and take "professional" photos. It's proving to become more and more challenging as we now have to coerce three kids to look at the camera at the same time, smile, and not take the bows out of their hair.
I just couldn't get Baby to leave her hairbow in her hair. And, everytime I stepped out of the picture she would run after me. I gave her a treat to keep her at bay, but then I had to change her clothes.
The best of the group shots. Luckily, Daddy is taking a Photoshop class and will be able to paste a good smile of Baby into this shot, and we will be able to eliminate the obvious "I'm concerned about being left here without my mother" look.
Bell loves the camera
Bell: Look, Mommy... I'm sitting like you.
Patience was wearing thin at this point... you'll notice shiny bite size candies in their hands... the promise of something good if they can just hold on a minute longer.
Our little Lady is such a fun, loving character. She doesn't have time to sit still for the camera when she could be off running, dancing, or cooking in her kitchen. 
A new outfit, a less obvious bow, and a teddy bear did the trick to get a great shot of Baby.
