The Sixth Night of Chanukah Photo Shoot

The #2 son jokes around, while #1 remains ever stoic.

Last night’s photo shoot around the Chanukah candles started out like most others. Well, except that my #2 son seemed to be in a playful mood.

Can anyone smile for the Nikon?

Then #2 settled down, and we went through the standard set of poses, so that I could document the event. Oh, and, of course, try to snag a pic of my #1 son smiling.

Sorry if I'm boring you, #2!

After I had gotten a partial grin from #1, he left the scene. That’s when the real action started! Let’s look at the photographic evidence, shall we?

Batman!

#2 decided to use the photo shoot as his own personal catwalk, as it were. And you know me, I was happy to snap away and record it all.

Yep, #2 definitely wasn’t camera-shy last night! And he enjoyed his time in the candlelight thoroughly, staying in a great mood . . . until he opened his present. Which was a University of Houston t-shirt.

“Please tell me that this is the worst gift I’m going to be getting,” he said. Yes, he actually said that to me after not receiving a present on night #3 because of rude behavior. And knowing that he and his brother don’t always get gifts every night. And also remembering that U of H stuff was on his Chanukah list!!

He’s just lucky that I’m a sucker for cute Chanukah models!
