Seriously...

Today was picture day at preschool, so just like my Mom did, Leyton had a bath last night, and then we rolled those awesome pink spongy curlers into her hair so it would be nice and perfect for her first school photo. Of course throughout the night, one of the three times Leyton woke up she complained about them digging into her head and falling out...sound familiar Mom? Hehe, anyway they made it to this morning, when Kelly took them all out for her, and by the time we were getting ready for school most of the curl was gone. Sooo I plugged in the curling iron and low an behold we got some beautiful ringlets, and not even any crying! Sooo of course for all this work she wasn't just going to get away with photos at school, so we trucked outside before school, then we drove around after school looking for the perfect spot for some photos for this girl...so dressed up (I even bribed her with her own Halloween candy :) . But in the end, I decided it was too much work to haul the baby out etc. so we headed home. But being the loser photo crazy Mom that I am, I dragged her out on the deck where the light was looking awesome and snapped some photos. After we finished Leyton came inside and put on my hat, and I just couldn't resist, she looked so cute!! So I dragged her back out again and man am I glad I did...seriously...I only wish I looked this cute in my own hat!!! Here's the pics. I don't know where she got the poses, but she seems to like these ones lately :).

(PS-sorry for all the writing...I'm not usually this chatty on the blog, but thought I needed the "story behind the story" hehe :)
