definitely what is awkward is all the gorgeous genes… some families have all the luck
I’d like to download this picture and photoshop myself in it and put it in a frame and display it in my house because I want to be a part of this group.
That’s a great idea…although I would definitely be the ugly duckling amongst all of those beautiful swans!
cuu-ute!
Poor kid born, with “Highly Magnetic Head Syndrome”.
Im not sure that I would call this pic awkward…I actually think it’s kinda cute. Not to mention everyone is so damn good looking!!!!
Kids, if you’re going to try this yourselves at home, you should have the girls with long hair
consider a pony tail.
It’s super-awkward that they are all gorgeous! Every family has an “ugly duckling”…wonder if the “duckling” is taking the picture.
“Okay Steve, you get…well you stand…umm…stand behind the camera. Yeah, umm you’re a good photographer, so…we really need you to take this picture!” Steve: “Really? I’ve taken the pictures for the last 7 years since cousin Mike lost his other eye. Can’t I be in the picture this time?” “No Steve, we really need you take the picture. This one’s going on my facebook and I can’t have you….I mean, I need you…to take the picture!”
Shiny happy people holding hands
Shiny happy people holding hands
Shiny happy people laughing
(REM song stuck in my head, oh God make it stop)
biker should have changed it to shiny happy people holding heads ;o)
Hopefully no one has lice.
Poor little baby:D
I think it’s sweet (albit awkward-sweet), look at all the people that are around to adore that baby! I bet she’ll be a year and a half old until the mother gets to hold her!
The only problem I have with this is, what if someone tripped or slipped? Especially someone on the “outter ring” of people…that’d be one smooshed baby!
This is my favorite family photo so far! I could look at these gorgeous people all day!
There’s so many people, so close together, that it’s hard to tell where one starts and the other begins.. perhaps they aren’t individuals people, but a giant many-headed monster?
It must be hard to be humble when you’re this good-looking!
This is what happens when you get that many good looking people in one family – they all want to be in every picture
Yep, it’s….well, it’s…awkward!
This photo is making me feel terribly claustrophobic…
not awkward. cool!
Twenty years later, that baby will drop fifteen grand on therapy because of “these dreams where I’m surrounded by disembodied heads!”
Good grief – this pic actually made me dizzy! They remind me of a litter of something – I’m just not sure what.
Did someone say Uncle Bob had swine flu?
HAHA! Hilarious! cough cough, sniff…
Baby Jesus wasn’t as Excited to see the “Up with People” group as they were to see him.
lol!!!
Totally Photoshopped (babies head is an infant Shirley Temple) using crossbow techniques.
Well, the parents certainly weren’t hurting for potential godparent choices, that’s for sure!
we were very squeezed in that day small room lots of people! we had to pile on to each other!
Now I know what to do for my next family photo…
right…right…they’re all so loving and close now…just wait till the parents need a babysitter!
ha ha ha ha…so right!
Aww, I think it’s cute!
@Maureen: It’s totally photoshopped!!! KIDDING ;-p
I am somewhat of a germaphobe so I would *never* let so many people get in my baby’s face .. family or no family!
Actually, this is rather sweet, save for the dingbat who forgot to move the drycleaning.
That is one rockin’ headpile!
I think the weirdest person in this pic is the guy in the back with the blue shirt, it looks like he’s trying to sneak a nap in on that girl’s back
no no the guy in the blue shirt was the one taking the picture and then he photoshopped himself in later ;o)…. in case you were all missing the photoshop comment from someone…lol
sneaky sneaky! You can tell because his hair is lighter than everyone else’s! (we needed a really lame explanation as well)
i submitted this photo. Nobody was photoshopped in! Our mom took this photo and made us all get around the baby. This is actually like the 20th take we had of this photo. It started off with just 2 people and then we kept calling in everyone who was missing. Finally got everyone in the pic!
well I think you’re all grossly underestimating the width of mom’s lens here….
Don’t worry, Peter, they’re kidding about the Photoshopping!
It’s a running gag around here. Nice pic + good submission!
P.S. Is mom as good looking as the rest of you???
its okay peter the photoshop remark was a joke sir
) good looking family tho
Don’t worry, we were being sarcastic. Now go back to your unbelievably attractive family, I have my own pictures to airbrush..now what’s a good photoshop tool to use for removing a hunchback?
hahahahahahahahaha
Wonderful faces, wonderful happy-looking family! Congrats to the proud parents and may you all enjoy each other. Next time my large family is together we are going for it. Thanks for the idea!
The Brady Bunch, meets the Partridges and Jon & Kate + 8.
good looking family!
“Is your camera’s Face Detection working?”
I’m more worried about the older little one, he looks like he’s getting squished pretty good, the baby actually seems to have it pretty good down there, the pillow is acting as a bit of a buffer, and she has the most space out of anyone!! lol
OMG! I didn’t see the baby!!
poor non Italian looking guy, pushed to the back.
My guess is the little girl will be blond…
That’s an awesome family photo!
i dont know if its actually the family, or if its the proverbial “village” that it takes to raise a child…
I don’t find this awkward. Just incredibly sweet! Except the poor little boy towards the middle is like..”What the ??”
big group/small room still I find it adorable!
“hey I’m down here…how come nobody is paying attention to me?”
He is already just a face in the crowd.
The dry cleaning hanging in the background really adds a special touch…
A great family picture. Let’s see how many people call this photoshopped.
The dry cleaning is totally photoshopped in!
no its not!!
you missed my sarcasm
Where do you go around here to unplug that #/*# “it’s photoshopped” button ?
the irony is your comment was photoshopped on to this page!
What I want to know is how to unplug the “this isn’t awkward” button.
I know this people, i know it’s not photoshopped
OOOOh No I just realized…I’m Photoshopped…and so is my crossbow
hehe
too many faces, it creeps me out a little!
They’re having fun celebrating the addition to their great-looking family. Awkward: not.
Well, I think what’s considered awkward here is the pose and how uncomfortable it must have been for some of them to hold it.
That said, I totally agree with you and the others: That’s a shocking number of great-looking people all in one family!!! And they seem to even exude a “nice” vibe, too. Wow.
Oh my gosh, that is so cute!!
The baby looks quite calm about all this, like it knows there are many more awkward photos to come and is accepting the fact already. It also already seems to know it’s entered a madhouse.
Having said that, this is still kind of cute.
“Dear God, please don’t tell me I’m related to all these people!”
*In the voice of the Count from Sesame Street* I count 15! 15 awkward! A-ah-ah!
I count 16, including the baby. That’s my final answer. But I think they could’ve squeezed at least 12 more people in if they tried a little harder.
I feel bad for who ever took this picture… I can just see the conversation with another family member.
Yah this is everyone… well excluding Jon.
Make you wish there was a mirror in the bad to make it Really awkward!
Being this good looking, they probably used a timer so everyone is there.
These people are alarmingly good looking.
yeah, what the? So this is what happens to all the lookers…they get hoarded in one family
I agree. It’s like Fox News. No un-attractive women.
Wow, you are right..this can’t be normal!
I agree, they are all gorgeous.
The baby is georgeous too! Great genes in this family!
Congrats gorgeous people, on your gorgeous baby, i’m going to go take pictures of my awkward family under our bridge-house. You might be pretty, but are you smart enough to guess my riddle?
All I can say is, if all these hot/pretty men are straight– what a waste!
a waste for who?
OH! OH! you’re a troll!
omg, so true!
Check out the HOT BABE behind the guy in the black shirt!
that is what I was going to say….I bet that is one beautiful baby! Hope they have a dozen more!!! They should all be in shampoo commercials! With the long bath robes and towels and bare feet. Gorgeous family! WOW
