Lannie don't feel bad.... Ella my Jenny is almost impossible to get pictures of.... well....unless it is a close up of her nostril.

Yeah, I was trying to take a picture of Breezy the other day, and I had to keep backing up because the focus was changing too fast, and what I got was a picture (close up) of the star on her forehead! I had to stop backing up because I was afraid I'd trip and fall on my keester, and Breezy doesn't know she shouldn't step on people yet. She's the most adorable little thing, but honestly, I'll be so relieved when she goes home! Kids!
