So maybe this should be in the punching bag section, but I had to have a little laugh/ rant and see if anyone else has had the same experience.

We are going o/s in June so I'm getting Peter's passport organised. Today I got his passport pics done....what an ordeal!!! Can you even believe they require babies to be looking directly at the camera and have their mouth closed?! Its like some kind of crazy test of advanced mothering skills. It took 30 minutes....30....of standing with one foot on a chair resting Peter on my thigh, trying to control him while keeping my hands out of the picture.

And then after I finally got the hard-won pictures, I managed to drop them twice on the way out of the shopping centre....go me.

We did get a good picture in the end, although Peter has this little spike of hair sticking up like JackJack from the Incredibles.

Anyone else have ridiculous baby passport pics stories?!!
