Last week Everett had his first picture day! He missed the first round of school pictures because he was in the hospital. I think this worked out better in the long run because for this photo he could sit and smile, both of which he couldn't have done in the fall on the original day.
I was able to sneak down when E was getting his picture taken and it was a fun mommy moment. When I arrived he had tears in his eyes and was not cracking a grin. I think he was a bit scared by the big lights, scary camera, and everyone yelling at him to smile. We've recently learned that Everett is scared of loud noises. At two different birthday parties at his daycare he started crying during the Happy Birthday song. In Korea when you sing happy birthday you also clap and we think all the clapping scared him. So, when I arrived at his picture he was recovering from people clapping loudly at him in an effort to get him to smile. Once I was there I was able to settle him down and give him a "Hey buddy!!!" And he flashed a big toothy grin.
I can't wait to see the final product, but here's a preview from home:
