Strange Valentine's Day photo shoot

Last week, Charlotte and I were decorating the cookies we gave to her classmates in their Valentines and Corey came down to get a shot of the action.  Then, Charlotte decided to be the world's weirdest model and treat us to some of her favorite poses.  She was in quite an odd mood that night.  I ended up actually decorating most of the cookies myself because she just couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

Here she is, actually sprinkling some purple sugar on the pink heart-shaped sugar cookies.



And here she is showing you the cookie that she said had "frosting poop" on it.



And then the posing began.










She carefully held each pose until Corey snapped the photo.  Where does she learn this stuff?!?!?

Here are the finished products (for all seven classmates plus her teacher and aide).  I totally stole the basic idea from a magazine, but let Charlotte add the stickers on the baggies.  Needless to say, the photo of the example in the magazine looked quite a bit more sophisticated.  Oh well -- these worked!

so cute and funny. But exactly how much sugar had she eaten by the time of the photo shoot?
