This is THE END of "Baby Bloopers II". Be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the page to view the photos in order. If you wish to see a photo in a larger format, place the cursor on the photo and click on it. And check out my other blog albums including "Baby Bloopers" the original, by clicking on the prompt at right called "View my complete profile". Thanks for looking.

At the end of the day, we don't really care how these pictures come out. These babies are so adorable and sweet you just want to squeeze them. In this shot Aunt Carrie gives Justine a little kiss on her downy head while Lauren is very interested in the photographer and camera!

The photographer has had it by now. After all these shots, not one is really a keeper - except they all are keepers because these babies are just too cute!

Editorial Note: These shots are being taken one after another in hopes of getting that perfect picture . . . and this one isn't it!

Well, what can I say? A yawning Justine and a totally occupied Lauren away from the camera is certainly not the result the photographer wanted.

Things are definitely out of control now. Justine's tongue is back out and Lauren is back to being intrigued by that focal point to her right.

I think Aunt Carrie has decided to hold the babies up to see if that will produce a better shot. However, at first glance, it didn't.

Justine is beginning to complain while Lauren stares at some interesting item again to her right.

Okay, what does a photographer do now? Justine is sticking out her tongue and Lauren has mellowed a little, but now looks sleepy.

Things continue to deteriorate as Justine moves her arm near her mouth and Lauren is now mesmerized by something that has caught her eye.

It's interesting, isn't it, that Justine is concentrating on something that is totally different than Lauren - and neither of them seem to know that the other one is right there next to them - course they were 11-week premature babies and are only 4 months old in these shots!

Now in this one, Justine is looking pensive, but Lauren is just beginning to cry.

Remember, the goal is to get a good shot of both babies at the same time - but this one isn't quite it!

Now Justine looks like there's a bad taste in her mouth and Lauren is even more astounded by what's going on in front of her!

A fist in the ear gets your attention pretty quickly and Justine has her own fist ready to retaliate . . . but Lauren is oblivious!

Okay, so Justine awakens and begins to suck on her hand (it tastes pretty good). Meanwhile, Lauren decides to take her tiny fist and whack Justine in the ear! I'd say it was a pretty good right.

Here's where it begins to get interesting as Justine awakens and begins to fidget. Lauren is still quite inquisitive at this point.

Justine is really out in this shot with her little arms stretched above her (something her Mommy thinks is very cute), while Lauren is just taking it all in! They're lying in Aunt Carrie's lap.


"Baby Bloopers" was a popular blog album, so in the spirit of that theme, here's "Baby Bloopers II". These photos were taken with Connie's sister, Carrie (above, with Justine at left and Lauren, in Minnesota). I don't know who the photographer was, but as you'll see, it was no easier for him/her to get 4-month-old Justine and Lauren to model for the camera in "Baby Bloopers II" than it was for Daddy Troy in the original "Baby Bloopers".
