Pictures
So we celebrated all our LO first holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas). Obviously a lot of pictures are taken around these times. Is it wrong for me to want some pictures just the 3 of us and then some of the 4 of us (including my step daughter)? I understand I am with someone who has previous children and I love her, I just wanted a few with only us. I see some posts that tear women apart for "excluding" their step kids from that stuff but it's not that I don't want her in any pictures. I guess I'm not too worried about it looking that way because honestly whatever, not every picture with my parents has all of my siblings in it with me so what's the difference right? I guess I need ideas or maybe just validation that it's okay to ask for that. I didn't at all this year and I'm kicking myself in the ass because it's the firsts of everything. Honestly I don't know where this post is going. Does anyone else get pictures with just their significant others and bios and then others including your step kids?

Hun its not wrong! Think about it how many pics the skids take with just daddio.
Stop worrying what other people think. The haters will always look for something to call you evil. The ones who live the step dangy life totally get it. Even in intact families not every pic includes everyone and no one bats an eye.
Dont overthink just do what feels good for you. You are allowed to photograph memories that are dear to you.
Blessings
There is no right or wrong
There is no right or wrong answer. It's no different than me taking a picture with just my son or just my daughter. I love them both but I have pictures individually too. If you are worried about how she will feel, take some with just her and her dad.
Stop thinking so much.
Not wrong at all.
Nothing wrong with it! My
Nothing wrong with it! My SD12 refuses to smile in pictures and looks miserable to the point where people just ask "what's wrooooong? Is everything okay?" I don't want pictures centered around a teens grumpiness. SMs should be allowed to have pictures of their husband and own children without any shame. Don't feel bad!
