5 photo shoots, 6 tantrums, 15 clothing changes and 237 Pictures later....

and we finally have our Christmas card pictures.

Whew. It was fun, but man oh man. To get them both together without one wiggling or crying or puking or......tricky, folks, tricky. Oh and not to mention when the camera wouldn't work or was too slow or you know just all around stinkeriffic (new word meaning: terrifically stinky). I need a new camera and possibly a vacation.

But I'm done! I did it! I persevered!

I think. I might take a few more just because I like to torture myself--er take pictures of my beautiful children.

I'm not going to share them with you just yet (don't want to ruin the surprise for all the family and friends that read!). You can see a couple of the good "rejects" on the sidebar. And if you can't imagine anything cuter than that, oh just you wait!

Now to decide which company to go with for the card. This has been really tough. So far I'm a big fan of Tiny Prints and Pear Tree Greetings. They have wonderful cards and reasonably priced as well. Pear Tree has a create your own photo card option that is really nice and I am spending too much time on the computer fiddling with!

Other places I've been looking include:

Snapfish they are having a 20 cards for 20 cents promo
Shutterfly
Vista Print
Walmart
Photocard Designs
Doodlebug designs I absolutely LOVE this feature.
Photoworks This is such a neat idea!
Photo Affections

Anyone else a d0-it-yourself Christmas photographer?
