After 58 photos (not all in one sitting), some crying and an "accident", I got this....
Of course this one was taken after her Christmas Program at about 9:30pm and she was so tired. But she wanted to see more pictures of herself, and kept demanding that I take more. When we were done, she cried even harder because it was over. I had to promise to take more of her today so she would go to bed!
