Same here, haha

Quoting Larry!:" This is super cute too "

sooo cute

Quoting Made in China™:" She said no.. Poo. Do you think something like that would be hard to make? How much do you think it'd be for wood?"

Id imagine not more than $20-25 for the wood. I buy wood from Lowes a lot, its not too bad. Paint can get pretty pricey, thats why Im always on the lookout for mistints. I dont mind the colors normally anyway, since I paint props to be strange colors, lol. Unless youre making the fabric banner yourself, you can get one for around $25 on Etsy. Id visit a thrift shop or goodwill to try and find some cheap glass props, dollar store for candy etc.

Awhh boo. Worth a shot though. Hmm I can't picture it being really expensive. Maybe 50 bucks for the props and wood? I could be really off though lol. Instead of the fabric banner you could always string lights which would make it cheaper. You can buy dollar store mugs, the usually have Christmas ones.

I'm really crabby today. i want to go somewhere and take pictures, but my husband is out of town on work, and im alone with the boys, and packing them up and lugging them around to find a good place to photograph them would be awful…plus they hate the camera….how did I end up with two kids who hate having their pictures taken…?

Keep trying. I've been taking pictures almost everyday. Let them do goofy faces in a few and then nice smiles for mommy. Bribery also works sometimes.

Why don't you take them to a playground and let them play and just capture some real life stuff?

That's an idea too, I love playground pictures.

I like it  

Off topic-
I fully support this local business in my area. They're amazing and they always go above and beyond. I want to get a gift for them and I have no idea what to get them. I want something they can benefit from or use. Maybe something with their logo? Idk.

EDIT*
It's a local cloth diaper store.

Well, my new point and shoot is definitely good at macro shots.
