I was pleasantly surprised to find that Liam was very cooperative. I was not at all surprised to find that Ben would not cooperate at all. Our photographer, Allie Litterer, used every trick and managed to at least get photos of Ben, but he would not smile.
This was the ONLY picture we got of the boys together without a parent in the picture and obviously, this cannot be used:
Ben just really doesn't like Liam much these days and really doesn't like Liam touching him. Liam adores Ben.
Ben didn't cooperate much for solo photos either:
Liam smiled at everything and showed off his amazing bright blue eyes:
We got one smile from Ben, while I was holding him and I look fat:
Meanwhile, Ben reverted back to miserable when we "forced" him to be held by Dave:
We did manage to get 1 good pictures of each boy by themselves and 2 good family photos. We did NOT get a good picture of the boys together, and it seriously breaks my heart and shatters all my dreams of cute picture of tiny little boys hugging each other.

You do not look fat! I would definitely use the last one. I love how happy and smiling you all look. Even little Ben, who is leaning out of the way, is charming.
We had to pick a card that was a collage type for 3 pictures- The best picture of just the girls was not that great. The 2nd one has Kate putting a choke hold on Scooter (dog), and the 3rd is one I took of Emily with my camera when the photographer left the room, as she would absolutely NOT crack a smile for a stranger.
We had to do a collage card too. It's NORMAL!!! I think the cutsey huggy pictures will have to wait AT LEAST a year.
But in the meantime, it is frustrating!
