those with newborns...holiday photo ideas?

I'm not sure HOW to get 2 toddlers and a newborn to sit for a decent photo.....
but I was thinking of taking the infant car carrier and putting it in a big enough box that is wrapped up.....

Re: those with newborns...holiday photo ideas?

I took my then 3 month old to Sears for pictures last year-hated it. So, I bought a big bean bag chair and a big white blankets to cover the chair and took my own pictures at home. The bean bag made it easier to "mush" her into position.

They weren't the best, but given the crunch they came out okay.

I've seen cute cards that are 3 individual pics of the kids, one holding a J, an O propped up against the baby and then the 3rd kid holding a Y.

One of my coworkers had a newborn last Christmas and they put her in a red Christmas stocking. It was adorable!

I would throw a white blanket over the car seat and put the baby in it with the other two around her. Abby's announcement pictures have her propped up in her car seat in the same way - you'd never know.

Jack was just about 3 months when we took our photo for his first Christmas card.....I used the bumbo seat. I covered it in a white blanket, dressed him in a santa suit, set the scene and took the shot. Granted, I didn't have 2 others to coordinate, but maybe this will help with getting your newest addition in the pic safely. Let me see if I can find the pic
