HOLD ON
Allow me to start from the beginning.
So, we are all eating breakfast at the (Original) Original Pancake House in Anaheim. We all eat too much and I drank one too many cups of coffee.
As we are leaving I find myself with a car full of children... how did this happen?
They are giggling and silly as we drive home.
RIGHT THEN - I knew I had to take pictures of them - ALL TOGETHER
(passing up cute shopping spots to take pictures)
I'm pretty sure this is not the playdate they planned over their pancakes. It probably included the trampoline, tearing up Sydney's room and running in circles through the kitchen.
Instantly as we walk in the door I plug in the curling iron and start dressing children, rummaging thru my children's closets. They were all ready in 15 minutes, I was a maniac.
We just drove down the street.
I let them out with simple instructions... DON'T RUN AWAY
[they were pretty cute]
[ Jake said : 'look, take a picture of me holding this big orange' ]
I did stop to reward them half way through with a kids cocoa...
just don't tell them - they think we are ALL DONE
'Hooray the photoshoot is over' (silly, silly kids)
I think they actually had FUN
... but they will never admit it.
