Awkward Pictures
Danika and Emily challenged bloggers to post pictures on Friday. I was busy yesterday and so I didn't get around to uploading mine. Today I'm no less busy but I feel like procrastinating and so here you are:
Emily wanted pictures from an "awkward" phase:
When I was little I was very crosseyed. I had eye surgery when I was two, wore a patch for a long time and later upgraded to glasses. I didn't need the glasses for my vision but apparently they help straighten out crossed eyes.

I experienced another "awkward" stage that started in Junior High and continues to this day. Here are all of the recent pictures I could find of myself. They're are not very many.
Cut from the background of another picture.
It turned out blurry when uploaded for some reason.
A '"Hey Matthew!" Click.' picture.
Again it's grainy. Grr.
This pic was taken a few days ago.
My whole family conspired to make me smile.
Apparently, they didn't want me to submit my "mugshot" to the scholarship selection board.

Don't I look smart? NOT!

I'm generally not opposed to smiling and I think I grin as often as anyone. However, whenever a camera is present all the joy is sucked out of my facial expression. Must be the awkward phase.

Aw! Those baby pictures are so cute ^^ Cool onesie. Very happenin'.
Awesome! Thanks for posting! I think your baby pictures are too cute. And I know what you mean about the whole happiness leaving when a camera comes into play. My Mom is always yelling at me to not run away from the camera...

Well, if it's an awkward phase, I share in it and I'm 41 years old. I don't much care for cameras and I really don't like having my picture taken.
The pictures are very nice -:)
Aw, nice pictures.
And I know how it is with little brothers who have trippy happy fingers. Grr.
You really should smile more often. It's a nice genuine smile. And I have the opposite problem. I paste on the same smile every time I see a camera. According to all the pictures, I've spent my life walking around with a big silly grin.
Nice pics. You didn't include any with me though. (hey at least the tub shot isn't the one with your cousin in it too he he he)
I know what you mean about smiling in front of cameras, the minute someone breaks one out I want to dive and take cover.
well its a face only a mother could love ROFL HHAHAHa Your baby pics are SOOO ADORABLE!
