Bathing Buddies...

They had so much fun I got the camera out and snapped a few shots for memories. To avoid a picture overload of all the hilariously fun shots, I spared you and put a few together in a collage and I think I'm going to print this for the bathroom wall...



"Why is the water green?" You ask?



This makes bathtime extra fun and experimenting with secondary and even tertiary colors. But I'm warning you... two boys in a tub full of yellow water is not a pretty sight. Just sayin'.

Well, It's Official...

Yup, it's official. His eyelashes are longer than the hair on his head...

I tend to be a bit impulsive when it comes to haircuts. I will think about it for a looooong time but when I finally decide it needs to happen, I have to get it done ASAP. In this case it was easy to just run the clippers around his little head. My little 'porcupine' (Isn't that right, GG?). I was getting tired of the monk look and it just stuck straight out all over his head. This is much easier to tame!

I love kid pics in color but I loved Jess's Fave B&W action on this:


And for comparison's sake... It's just so unreal for anyone to have lashes this long!

This was also Jess's Fave B&W action with a little of the folky layer left on. LOVE it! You can get her amazing MUST-HAVE actions here: CLICK THIS!!! Seriously, they aren't some crazy actions you will never use, these are time-saving tools that will rock your pics and you will use all.the.time! Check them out!

And Amy... this one is for you. It's a random snapshot but every time I look at it, I see another little cutie. Especially with his hair cut short he reminds me so much of - Guess Who! :) And I keep thinking about what was said about Caleb's hair when he was born: "Hims got a nice haircut." :)

Stinker Roo Strikes Again...

You know trouble is brewing when Joshua is on the loose and all falls quiet in the house. I went searching for the little rascal and found that he had crawled into bed with still-sleeping Jeremiah and tucked himself in right next to him.

No big deal, right?

But then upon closer inspection I noticed that Joshua didn't snuggle up with big brother to sleep. Noooooooooo, he just wanted a cozy place to cherish the forbidden...



Didn't even mind the wrapper...


I'm still not really sure where he found this sucker, but it was so funny, I had to take a picture before letting him know it wasn't the best thing for so early in the morning!

Boys In The Leaves...

I had this *bright* idea of getting my boys together in the leaves for a sweet fall picture. Maybe even one for a Christmas card if I get the energy to make one. They had a blast playing the the gorgeous golden leaves and I had a challenge getting them to sit still long enough to grab a shot of them looking the right way and smiling. But I managed a couple...

Cheese!



I love my boys!!!


So I got the pretty smiley ones but then they didn't seem so fun so this one might be the Christmas card pic since it is more true to life around here...



Merry Christmas!

You Might Be A Redneck...

If your mom captures you with BillyBob Buckteeth in and no shirt on...



Teeheehee... we were Skype-ing with my mom and Jeremiah dug out these nasty looking pair of teeth to show her. It was hilarious and this image still cracks me up remembering it!

Oh, and yes, this image is part of the stuff-I-never-posted series. Although... my mom said I did post the last set and I had to laugh at myself for being so scatterbrained about it! I lost my mind and I think my sanity followed (haha Deanna!)!!! So, yeah... if I have posted this before, just enjoy it again. :)

Yes, Folks, I Am A Professional...

Please do not steal or copy my amazingly-perfect-every-time shots. I know you are all just dying to shoot like me with every shot so perfectly clear and in crispy sharp focus... Here is an example of how I am consistently awesome with every shot:


Aren't they such a lovely couple?

Or was this a family shoot?

Or that one guy's dog?

lol Go me.

Dear Daddy...

Apparently, you need to cram in more "boy" time. Especially with Joshua as he likes to play in Mommy's makeup. Mommy is getting tired of cleaning up eyeliner all over the bathroom and all over Joshua's face...


He's starting to look like Gene Simmons from KISS...

Actually, this is a mild version of what Joshua usually does. I was just a little less frustrated enough this time to remember to get the camera out to document these moments for his future wife.

And just a few random snaps of the boys wrestling. Joshua is counting how long Jeremiah's been down...

And taking a moment to admire Jeremiah's hair...

And this one is for Jess who seems to think my house is always so neat and tidy...

I wish! Ugh to clutter!

{Mommy Moment}
As sad as this is it still made me laugh: Joshua was especially unruly one day and that evening he didn't let up as I buckled him into his car seat next to Jeremiah. I said teasingly, "Joshua, what am I going to do with you? Do you not like me and want to go live with someone else?" To which Jeremiah quickly jumped in without skipping a beat and said to him with a hug and kiss, "Goodbye, Joshua. We'll miss you."
