I planned this whole big photo shoot while we were at the beach last week. I hear from a lot of you on social media about the kids and how great it is that they are so cooperative with taking photos, etc for the blog and Instagram.

Well, I thought I would share this un-edited shoot with you. JP was 100% ticked off on this morning and I pretty much had to threaten and bribe him to even get him to the beach.

I did finally squeeze a super cheesy, fake smile out of him. You’re welcome.

This post is a great reminder that the images you see across social media are just that… images. Very small moments captured on chaotic days.
