Just because there are arms and legs flailing doesn't mean there's real good action worth photographing. Or so I am told.

There's a reason we as a species have miraculous in-built cognitive adaptations that blur reality: to cope with life.

Those mundane, daily minutiae that you'd just as soon forget, during a hectic bustle of a day, running after kids, juggling chores and errands, screaming toddlers, wailing babies, the demands of work... when all you want to do is kick off your shoes and call the day done. The last thing you want to think about on one of those days is remembering the moments, right?

Wrong.

In all seriousness, this kind of photoshoot is a photographer's dream. The subjects bring so much natural charisma, such inherent comfort with themselves and each other, that it's impossible for it not to come through the lens.
