Family Pictures

It's that time of year again... the time when I worry way too much over Christmas card pictures.
This year's a little different, as I am about three months pregnant, and gaining weight as I type.
So, here we go... the annual Carter photo shoot. Thanks, Laurel--these are awesome!

These jacket pictures are just for fun. I couldn't resist a leather family picture.

Jake loved grabbing my earring. Always fun.

Jake and Daddy.

The "Fonze" shot.

Making Jake laugh.
{It's usually pretty easy.}






I'm pretty sure this is the winner.
Merry Christmas... er, I mean, Halloween. :)

I love the winner and the rest. You are a good looking bunch. You don't look a minute pregnant - but I hear ya. I swear I can't wear normal pants after 6 weeks.

These turned out great. Jakey is such a ham, I love his little smirk.

I'm so glad these turned out the way you wanted them to. =) And I am very, VERY envious of your killer camera. Love the last one! You look so pretty!

You have some keepers! I especially like the one that you have picked to go on your card and Blaine and Jake's tribute to Fonzie.

Jason (or sometimes Laurel) said...

I love Jake's ridiculously large smile as he is your pulling your earring hard enough to make you cry!!! I dont care about your pain, Jake's happy face is all worth it!
