Everyone Wants Their Picture Taken

I do not know the exact science behind this phenomenon, but undoubtedly, any time I try to get a group picture it is a most impossible task to get every one rounded up and sitting still, BUT if you try taking a picture of just ONE person, everyone else will flock to the camera, begging to be in the picture. Reverse psychology? So here is an example. While I was working at the computer today I notice Waverly smiling at me with that sweet little tongue of hers so I decide to try and catch it on camera. We must have been making quite a bit of noise because Mason shows up out of nowhere saying "Mom! Mom! Take a picture of me and Waverly. We are so cute!" No joking, that's what he said.

Then Coolidge comes in. Probably because he can hear Mason saying "cheese" and thinks that he's missing out on a piece of cheese and wants some too. When he sees that we're taking pictures he starts shouting "Me! Me! Me!" and pointing at himself.
And then, because there is a commercial break in the cartoons he's watching, Campbell decides to see what all the commotion is and also wants his picture taken. (He wants to make sure that everyone knows that he's 6)

If you look closely you will see the deterioration of Waverly's patience and just wants Mason to put her down and for the bright flashes to stop!

I wish Madysen's teeth would just pop through they went back down :( I think the whole trick of Porters was that he managed not to fall into the creek :D We miss you guys and look forward to August!!!
