Olivia is the hardest of the three to photograph. She spends the least amount of time sitting still and she hates to be stilled. She gives very short snuggles especailly to dad and mom, but at her instagation. We've developed a ploy. We call it the "five second snuggle". She puts her head on our shoulder and hugs while we count backward from 5. She usually repeats each number outloud. 5-4-3-2-1... ZERO! Then she pops her head up like it's on a spring and shouts with a smile, "ALL DONE". It helped her to think of it as a game insead of captivity. Anyway, as soon as I bring out the camera, she gets serious and somber. All her giggle and squirt is gone. So, we are working on it.
