Pictures in my house

ASalamualakum guys, I was having a conversation recently about having pictures in our home of my family. At the time of the Prophet (puh) it sounds like people weren’t allowed to create pictures and drawings of living things because you’re trying to create the creation of God. But my thought was taking a picture of a creation of God is not the same as creating your own creation that doesn’t already exist and then framing it and putting it on your wall. My question is, is there any argument to be made that it’s not Haram to put pictures of my kids up in my house?
