July 4th Dresses: Take 3

I've mentioned before that the girls' July 4th dresses were dirtified before I was able to take a picture due to a faulty diaper and a faulty bladder. I decided to wash the dresses that night and let the girls wear them to church the next day in hopes that I could get a couple of pictures. And that's what I got: two mediocre pictures...

So I put them back on my little models and tried again. I'm not sure why. I spent $4 on DeLaynie's and Ella's was given to us (thanks, you!) It's not like it would be a giant waste if we just missed out, but it mattered to me. Here's the one that I got of DeLaynie:

Ella was a bit more of a ham...

But I think she's seen too many episodes of "America's Next Top Model" because she kept doing this leaning forward, man-eater thing. (It should be noted that I don't watch Ms. Bank's show, nor does anyone else in my household. In large part I boycott it because of the ad that says "We're looking for women in all shapes and sizes, but you must be 5'7"," as if petite women are so obviously unattractive that the mere idea of one of us modeling is absolutely repulsive. But I digress...)

Well, at least she covered herself here. I think that these dresses are retired from picture-taking. They're obviously not lucky for the purposes of beautiful pictures. But I still have two great looking girls!
