A Dozen Cousins

Two cousins are leaving for California and Taiwan in a couple of weeks, so it's early Christmas for the cousins. PJs are a Christmas gift tradition from Grandpa and Grandma. It seems that there's about one more cousin each year to add to the PJs picture! There's been no more than 14 months between the births of cousins. Next year, our little girl will be in there, too!

Now ... how many pictures do you have to take in order to capture 12 children under 9?Madeleine, Evie, Delphina, Claudia, Clare, Morgan, Gabriel with Louis, Noah, Anderson, Ethan, and Isaiah
It figure that MY son is the one looking sideways and about to poke his cousin in the ONE picture in which everyone ELSE is looking. *sigh*Now Ethan, 21 months, and Isaiah the 2 year old are getting ready to leave. And Noah is STILL not looking.After we round everyone else up AGAIN, my older son is the one NOT looking and 8 month old Louis has had enough (poor baby, it was SO noisy). Sorry, Louis!

It's amazing chaos and I love it!

I remember when we were shooting a photo with our 7 children, Steve took about 20 before we had one with them all looking.

Love the pajamas.

We can't even get our 4 kids to look good together in a picture!
