    Get DH + a friend to swing the older one by arm & legs for a motion pic .. do a sequence of photos like this.

    Maybe get some "candids" of the nappies on the kids heads ... the kids putting nappies on the doll ... good luck

    You know I have no idea with photography, but the first thing that came to mind was something like the pic Sarah_H has in her ticker, with cloth bums of course and one of the kids pulling at the other ones cloth bum. Different colours and you could write something along the lines of how "even the kids will be checking them out"...I don't know...I'm not good at this stuff!

    Have fun! Do we get to see the pic?

    Hehe I was going to suggest my photo too Nic! Have a nice bright nappy on each of them then have only the nappy in colour & the rest of the photo B&W (I can help with that part if you want!).

    Get A to look between his legs... So standing with his bum in the air & a big smile looking through his legs.

    If you can manage it, get M asleep on her belly with her legs tucked under her. Again do it in B&W with the nappy coloured.

    I think it would be best to have no top, so the nappy is the main feature with nothing distracting from it. I can just picture it, if only you lived closer.....

    Make it into a game if you can... Get daddy to do the same thing & have Aricyn copy, mummy can be off to the side with the camera Even if you pretend to take pictures of something else while they start playing then he wont notice what you're doing.

    Give me a bit & I'm sure I'll come up with something else...
