trivial picture dillema

i share my pictures on shutterfly to all my family, which of course, includes my inlaws.

i tend to take a lot of pictures of my immediate family with Malia and I don't feel comfortable doing that with my mil or fil.  My mil isn't a big picture taker at all, so I don't think to take out my camera when we're together.

but - when i share my pics, I wonder if that goes through her head.  is it rude/unfair?  do i need to get over my uncomfortableness?

oh and we live 4 hrs from ea set of grandparents.  the inlaws were here 2 weeks ago visiting and my parents were here last weekend so it seems really evident when I look at the pics I took.

I do the same thing. Like that photo book? I couldn't find any with my fil and smil. Oh darn.

I used to do the same thing.  Now I make a point of taking my camera out when they visit, whether they like it or not.  I know they won't be around forever and I want my girls to have pictures of themselves with their grandparents.

lizlemon - i need to think of that way.  from M's perspective.  dh doesn't say anything either...I think he knows that I would hand him the camera.

DH always ends up taking the pictures of his family with the kids.  The thing is, it is so forced and rushed, that they NEVER and I mean, NEVER turn out nice.  I was actually just teasing him about it last night as I was going through photos from DS's baptism over the weekend.  I try not to let it bother me, it is what it is.
