The makings of a photo shoot

I had to post these pictures of Smurfy because I think they're hysterical. The kids had some new $5 sweaters from the Childrens place, so I thought I'd try to get a few photos of them in their new getups. Things went really smoothly, considering, but for some reason, when you tell a 2-year old to smile, that's usually not what you get. At least, not at first. So, here we have the "stages" of the process of getting Smurf to smile. Enjoy.

STEP 1- Scuzz.

STEP 2- Close Eyes.

STEP 3- Close eyes & open mouth?

STEP 4- Close eyes & smile
(getting closer!)

STEP 5- Smith with mouth open
(ALMOST!!!!)

THERE IT IS!!!
Good boy!
Here's your sucker.
