Hi Patty,
I like the lighting in pose #2 but the position of the mother and daughter in #3. I'd like it even better if the father's head was a little more elevated. I also question his white shirt. I think darker is better. I like the way the clothing of the two females works better, making the daughter more important. You would have to change his posture to accomplish this. Sometimes it helps to use little clay models or buy action figures at a toy store to help visualize a good pose.
I always try to create a visual hierarchy and I would feature the girl. Each element can either make or break a good composition. Also outdoor photos on a sunny day tend to emphasize squinting. Not necessarily a great component to a flattering portrait. Pray for clouds! Good luck.
