Life as a one year old can be stressful.
There is so much pressure.
Infomercials about reading babies.
Moms with cameras in your face.
So what if she can't read.
Because this picture would only be half as awesome if she was happy.
Her drama makes me smile.
The sign shop is open.
I have a few randoms left over from Queen Bee Market.
When they are gone, they are gone.
No custom orders, no relisting.
No more crying child photo shoots.
Grab them while you can.

I feel a little ashamed to admit that I laughed out loud watching Janie cry. But the irony is just hysterical. And I don't think I've ever seen her NOT happy. Thanks for the SMILES.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness....so cute!

Those pictures are definitely way better than smiley pictures!
ReplyDeleteOh these pictures are too precious! I have a picture of my baby sister crying in her long night gown sitting on the floor with me doing laundry, her crying and facial expressions are classic! Sometimes the crying pictures make the best pictures :)

So funny - she is gonna love them when she is older!
ReplyDeletethe irony of those photos is so fantastic, so 'one-year-old' cool. and, what's this about no custome orders? WHAT? WHAAAAAAT?!?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh...too funny. Poor girl..but it really is perfect! She will learn to read and she will smile more I'm sure! :)
ReplyDeleteoh my ... those photos are so pathetic, and adorable! i love how upset she looks, but is still just sitting there holding the "smile" canvas! hahaha ... she'll love those photos when she gets older!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! She will just love you for this in a few years!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou so need to enter this pic in a contest...she would be sure to win !
ReplyDeletebtw...I just ordered that smile sign baby girl is holding ! ;)
that is priceless : )
ReplyDeleteHave to say, even behind the tears, those pics are awesome!!
ReplyDeleteWhy are pictures of them crying so fun? She is CUTE!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I wanted 2 but it would be great if they weren't ALL SOLD OUT! Jerk.
ReplyDeleteyou crack me up! I need to send you your moola for the sign I bought at the Queen Bee too! I will email you for your addy so I can send a check :)
ReplyDeleteAw, cute post!
ReplyDeleteThe drama makes any mom smile! Thanks for the laugh! ☺
ReplyDeleteJanie - you drama queen you! love it. -- you know how to model your mommy's signs ;) ... some emotion goes far in advertising, no? (:
ReplyDeleteOkay, that just made me happy. Maybe it shouldn't...but it really did. There is just something fun about 1 year old drama. My little Chase makes me crack up all the time with it...and then he gets a good hug. Love her. And love that she was holding the smile sign. Thanks for the happiness.
ReplyDeleteHAHA those pictures are PRICELESS... especially the face in #2. Thanks for a good laugh :)
ReplyDeleteMy baby is 1 year old today, and I couldn't help but lol irl at these pictures. Life with a 1 year old is a blessing!
ReplyDeleteLove the crying baby photoshoot. It definitely would not be the same if she were smiling. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the CRYBABY discount... ordered my READ sign for our little reading cubby/nook.
You are an evil mommy.
ReplyDeleteMaking her cry thru a photoshoot....just to make a buck and get the raddest blog post ever.
Sheesh.
Who are you?!
Send her over.
My kids can give her therapy.
I do it to them all the time.
Except now my girls can read...and they don't just cry...
they stomp their feet and roll their eyes too!
HA!
Love your signs.
Espesh the SERVE.
XO
Just the title made me laugh....and then seeing her crying through the photo shoot...hilarious....sorry baby :) love love her dress....checking out the shop right now!
ReplyDeleteWhen my middle daughter was one we took her to a fancy place (i.e. expensive) to get photos with fancy backgrounds, wardrobe, everything. She cried the entire time!
ReplyDeleteWhen it came to choosing pictures of her, those were the pictures I loved the most! Weird, but true!
I just had to come back and look again. I think I laughed harder the second time through. Poor, sweet kid. I just want to give her a hug. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my GOSH this is funny... not funny that she is upset (sorry baby Janie!), but these are such priceless photos!!! :) xoxox Holly
ReplyDeletethese photos are fab! so is the sign.
ReplyDeleteso are you:)
You are TOO funny, Julie. My sis is naming her little girl "Jane" in July an I am already pumped about having a baby Janie. BTW, this is completely random, but I was wondering what school you went to in MO when you left Orange county for a year. 2 of my really good friends went to SBU in Bolivar and I think we're all the same age so just wondering if you went there...
ReplyDeleteoh man, classic photo opp. I am so glad i snagged TWO of your signs at Queen Bee...those things are hot hot hot! Just like their maker! Booya!
ReplyDeletethat really made me smile! ha! :)
ReplyDeleteAwww I think some of my favorite pics of my girls are the ones where they are crying or mad.
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious! My 4 yr old is FAScinated with those infomercials. He says with utter amazement, "MOM! Those babies are reading!" I was soooo sad to miss Queen Bee, but I realized I think I have a sign from you I bought at the Mariners Christmas boutique a couple years ago!! Yeah for me.
ReplyDeleteyou to sell the pic of screaming janey.
ReplyDeletetotally.
She's even so cute when she's crying.
ReplyDeleteyeah, yeah cute baby. sheesh. ;)
ReplyDeletebut what I *really* need to know is if that FAB little shirt is going to be making it into your shop anytime soon??? well, actually 2 of them.
Too cute!! Any chance you'd consider doing a tutorial on sign making?? I have a couple of weddings coming up and would love to make some for gifts.
ReplyDeleteBoo for no more hollas! That little peanut is beyond cute, btw! Those eyes?!?! I die!
ReplyDeleteThat is the funniest thing EVER!!!
ReplyDeletelol
Love the sign!...and baby Janie. :)
Lovin' the Amy Butler shirt :)
ReplyDeleteIt might have been intended for her to smile... but my goodness that was just priceless.. What a giggle I got.. and how many times I tried so hard to get my kids to smile.. Sometimes it just doesn't happen. SO CUTE !
