I took Caleb to Target to get professional pictures this week. Getting my boys to sit still and cooperate for pictures is always a challenging task. We thought perhaps if we just took Caleb in by himself and went in the morning when he is usually in a better mood and things are a little more calm at the studios we would have better luck. At first it looked like it was going to be a complete disaster. He was crying and reaching out for me to hold him. Everything the photographer did to try to cheer him up seemed to make things worse and even the very special treat of fruit snacks wasn't helping. Then the photographer brought out the train. Caleb cheered right up as he whacked the engine over and over. After that he happily giggled as the photographer played with him and shot away. We actually got quite a few cute pictures. What a relief.

I love the big smiles. I'll put the train in my bag of tricks in case the fruit snacks ever fail me with Isaac!
Cute pics! Apparently the train is the trick- it looks like he did really well sitting there!
Love the pictures! They all turned out great. I love the Target portrait studio. Hooray for the train that saved the day! Evan was saved by a bear.
These are cute! Glad the train worked its' magic.
