Gerbie






I have been compiling photos into online albums to keep all of our memories from our time in England together and in one place. We had a goal from the time that we first got here, that every new place we went, we would try to get a family picture together. For the most part, I think we met that goal, there are only one or two places that I can think of that we missed for some reason. Going through all of these family photos at one time though has brought a few things to my attention.
1. We are wearing coats and/or sweaters in almost every single one of them. Yes, even the ones taken this summer - if you can call what they have here 'summer'. (It is 60 degrees and raining as I type this).
2. Gerbie is looking grumpy or sucking her thumb in almost every one of them. Or doing both simultaneously.
She is actually a very happy girl, but she hates getting her picture taken and does everything in her power to not be looking at the camera or smiling. However, I have gotten her to relax a little bit in front of the camera lately, so to prove that she really does smile, here are some recent pics of my sweet little girl.
