i'm becoming a thief

more stolen goods. these are of our most recent self-portrait photo shoot. you don't want to know how many we took until all 5 of us were satisfied with they way we looked...

first attempt: the timer shot. the timer shot just didn't cut it
so we try the self portrait. my arms aren't long enough to get both the tall and short kids...
so molly gives it a go, but now shawn feels left out...
exhausted from all the hard work, we take a little break. but these 3 just can't get enough of themselves...
back to work. i stretch my arms as much as i can, make the tall kids crouch, the short ones stand on telephone books (ok, we didn't go that far)...looks like we're all inside the frame!
sometimes (on rare occasions) we let others take our picture. but that's just not as fun.
