Graham's first passport pic

Yesterday, we took Graham to have his passport pictures taken as we may soon have an international trip coming up. Thankfully, the timing was perfect! I was really worried that he would be asleep (or worse, crying!) when we got to the studio. But he had just woken up from his nap and his eyes were wide open! Luckily, the studio's associate was able to take us in immediately as I mentioned to her that we might have a really narrow window of opportunity to have photos taken. She immediate got down to business. She laid a piece of cloth on the ground and once Graham was on the floor, we had to try and get his attention to look into the camera. I also had to make sure that his head was straight as he has been favoring a tilt to his right side. Miraculously, it only took 3 shots before we finally got the right passport pic! Funny enough, he actually decided to give us a big laugh during the photo shot (as we were all trying so hard making funny noises to get his attention) and obviously we won't be able to use it for his passport. The lady was nice enough to give us a copy of the "rejected" pic :-)
Not long after his photo op, as Bobby was paying for the pictures, little Graham decided to start crying. Yup, mommy was right! There goes our small window of opportunity! Thankfully it all worked out for everyone!
By the way, Graham's outfit was a gift from one of Bobby's brother, Kenny - who is the head pro at Liberty National Golf Course. It's an amazing golf course with spectacular views of the Statue of Liberty on some holes. I figured the golf club's logo would fit best for the occasion :-)
