to celebrate mikey turning one year old, we got our pictures taken (again)!  gotta say though that i’m not too thrilled with the photographers at jcp.  and their service in general.  i really dislike how they push you to buy the ‘doctored up’ pics.  you should have seen the ones they tried to make us buy!  i’d be okay with them if they’re halfway decent, but don’t stand there and try to sell me something that looks like trash!!!  and i’m the mother talking here so it has to be a REALLY bad shot to make me think a pic of my son looks like trash!!!  i find i always leave there disgruntled.  i’m extra peeved because we have the 2 year membership thing so i feel like we’re locked in with them or something.  they started this lame new ‘layer’ thing so that the use of coupons is very limited and then you have to shell out $15 A SHEET after that!  so, tip- AVOID jc penney photo studio if you can.

ok, rant over…

happy thought (note, he’s looking and smiling at ME)-
