Saturday our whole family (Me, Jesse & the girls, Mike & Diann, and Chris & Pegan) went to Lake Lowndes to take some family pictures. Chris and Pegan are leaving Saturday (11/1)– moving to Kentucky, so we wanted to take an opportunity and get some pictures of all of us together. The ‘photo shoot’ didn’t go as well as I hoped it would. We got there around 3:30 and the sun was at the worst spot for picture taking. Caleigh threw fit after fit after fit and I was at my wits end soon after we started, which wasn’t good. I really don’t know what else to do at this point with her behavior – she is so sweet and smart, but can become SO ill-tempered at the drop of a hat. She doesn’t just cry – she SCREAMS. If someone were to here her scream like she does, they would probably think we were beating her. We spank, put her in time-out, talk to her, try to give her our undivided attention when we can, etc. Nothing works – she’ll be 4 in March, and I’m hoping the ‘terrible twos’ will play out eventually.
Anyway….enough about that. We did get a few good pictures, so it wasn’t a complete bust.
