Primping Princesses


Even though it was Preston's photo shoot of the day, it was these two who were getting all doll'd up for the photographer!!
Not really - they were just putting their make up on for the day but I just had to get a picture of it as it looked sooo funny.
Okay - so the photo shoot was interesting - to say the least.
Preston doesn't cry. I have heard him MAYBE twice since he's been born, both times when he was having his diaper changed. He HATES to have his diaper off.
Well, have you SEEN newborn baby photos??? No diapers. Lots of crying.
Both Kylie and Shelley came out of the nursery in a sweat, but Shelley assures us there are some great shots. I will hope so after all she had to go through to get them taken...he pee'd and poop'd on at least three different blankets, 2 different outfits and 3-4 burp clothes.
All in total? One load of laundry, of which I started as soon as the photo session was over.
Mind you, Preston was a little 'put out' also.
Kylie had just fed him so he would at least be pleasant with a full tummy. But of course, he usually then sleeps for 4 hours.
Not to be...he was being poked and turned and plumped up on this pillow and that blanket. I'm sure he felt like a turkey being basted for the holidays.
And all he wanted to do was sleep.
And then the whole 'no diaper' thing just had him fit to be tied...MAD even.
So at the end of the 3 HOUR ordeal, Kylie gave him a nice cleaning up, put a new diaper and clean outfit on him, nursed him to pleasantly full again and snuggled him up close.
He'll never remember the worst of it.
I used to wonder what he dreams about at this age.
He now has his 'first nightmare'.
