Ben's Pics

Ben asks to use my camera almost daily. He takes pictures of all his favorite things, sometimes many, MANY pictures of his favorite things. (One time I got my camera back and there fore 42 pictures of his army guys.) Here are some samplings...

Mia holding his finger...


Army vs. Indians war...




His buddy Michael...


Silly pic with Addie




The hole in Addie's ceiling...


His favorite book...


And of course the obligatory self portrait...


He loves to take pictures and thankfully likes being in pictures (for the most part) too. We've come a long way, boy. Tomorrow I will post a bunch of pictures of Addison from our Princess Party and an impromptu photo shoot. (Some of Tman too.) :-)

Couldn't you teach your kid to be a little more politically correct? Indians vs. Army...he'll get in trouble in school for playing like that :) I like that Mia holding his finger is one of his favorite things.

This post reminded me of a blog post a friend of mine wrote about 10 tips for documenting your child's life. you can read it here: http://marcywrites.com/2010/04/10-tips-for-using-your-digital-camera-to-preserve-childhood-memories/
I keep remembering the post when I watch Berlyn play with the neighbor kids, or look at our messy play room. I think, "things aren't always going to look like this, I should take a picture."
I'm glad your BFF is in town. How fun for you!

In a Nut Shell...

Saturday afternoon, 2pm, got home from Costco and thought I might be going into labor. Troy woke up from his nap at 3:30, sensed what was going on and was not too happy about it at all. Thinking it was pretty early, but not want wanting to take any chances, we left for the hospital a bit before 4 o'clock Yep, too early. Walked the halls for an hour which produced more of these... Which felt like this... And at 8:42pm they led to this... We are so thrilled to add a precious baby girl to our family We love you Mia Joy! (7lbs 2oz, 18.5" long)

I know that people come from good places and the intentions behind their comments are never bad, and sometimes they're actually funny, but sometimes I just want to say, um, really? Is that the BEST thing you can think of to say? Here are some of my faves from last week... "I'm going to un-friend you on facebook because you do not look like you just had a baby a week ago." - sorry? "What's her name? ... Oh I know SO MANY Mia's. Like, SO many." - great. "Are you guys finished yet? Is there some literature out there I can get for you (to teach you about prevention)?" (This one is my favorite) - "I'm the oldest of three and I am SO glad my parent's didn't have a fourth." - um... okay. This is the one I hear from almost everyone, it's not necessarily a bad thing to say, I just get it A LOT, "Two boys and two girls? Oh, the perfect family." Does that mean before Mia we had an imperfect family? I also hear endle

Crafty Me

I'm pretty excited because I'm not crafty, at all, but when I saw this idea on my new favorite crafty blog I got all giddy because I thought, "I can do that!" and so I did. And since my kids ARE crafty, go figure, I had all the stuff to make them on hand - yippee! All I had to do was buy the goodies that make the wings, which only cost me a dollar (thank you Dollar Tree!). I put them in the kid's little Easter buckets. I hope they like them as much I do. :-)
