We have family that live in Canada. We all have passports except Maura. I've been putting it off for a long time but really need to get it done. Today I sat down with the paper work and decided to get it done. Mostly it's just collecting the proper forms and then taking the picture.

Now I know why I've been avoiding this! Have YOU ever tried to get a picture of a two-year-old that is acceptable?!? I think it's impossible. I know there are places that do passport photos, but I don't think they will have more luck at getting what they need than I will...

This was the first attempt.









She DID have a cute clip in her hair at one point...







Then I tried: "If you sit still I'll give you a candy" and that led to excitement over having candy... I shouldn't have said the 'c' word. So I gave her something hoping that she would put it in her mouth and I would have better luck...










These are the most likely candidates.

She looks like a serial killer...a two-year-old serial killer.
I think I'm gunna have to try again later after she's had a nap...

That's hysterical! Who'd have thought that it could be that difficult to get just a normal shot of her face? She's still adorable, though. :)
