The flaw in the plan

We were meeting with a photographer today for our yearly family pictures. Since I'm alone with the kids, most of our pictures are selfies, so we need real photos sometimes. Usually, it goes super well. But today, the boys weren't exactly in sync. Oli didn't want to. He wanted to look into the camera, discuss things with the photographer, but didn't want to sit down. And when he did, for half a second, Henri would start crying. Anna says she got it, but in the end, i felt rather frazzled.

It didn't help that Henri is back to huge bouts of high-pitched crying. It's a good thing we're seeing the nurse tomorrow, because I have a feeling the other ear is starting to bug him.

But the day is over, so we'll now rest. And you will, I hope, forgive another sleeping baby picture.
