Not quite picture perfect

Page content

A few weeks ago we celebrated our youngest child’s second birthday.  Naturally on an occasion as significant as a birthday,  we had our camera out quite a bit trying to capture every moment of the celebration.  It wasn’t till we looked at the pics later on the computer that  I realized at perhaps some moments would have been better left, not captured!

Since she loves dogs, we did a puppy dog theme for her party.  I made the cake to look like our own pooch, Maggie.

Great idea, till your cutting the cake.. Something kinda sick about this picture, huh?  Kids, don’t look…Daddy’s slicing up Maggie!

Later she was building Legos with her grandfather’s.  I grabbed the camera to capture the beautiful moment.  Of course when I grabbed the camera the moment was over. 

“Mom, what are you doing?”  “I need some help here!!”

Seems I was inadvertently snapping a picture of her peeing her pants….poor thing, didn’t make it to the potty fast enough in all the party excitement and Mommy didn’t realize what was happening b/c she was too busy trying to take pictures!. 

not exactly her finest moment

And since this post seems to be all about party bloopers, I felt I just had to share this shot.  Lest there be any doubt how old she is, this face should tell it all.  “No, I will not smile for a picture with my cake!” 

it's official… she's 2
