I entered one of my son’s five year old pictures- in front of my great grandmothers 62 Galaxie. He’s 100% mommy’s boy- with tons of spunk!

Comments are not working on my blog- I’ll try to fix that later. That’s what I get for messing with things (when I don’t know what I am doing) I guess :P

Currently, I’m photo #9. I guess I have three boys (my husband, one of my triplets, and our baby Cody). All of our babies are little miracles, but our last baby Cody was born very sick, had a double volume exchange and after some time in the level 3 NICU he regained his strength and today is a shining star if our lives. My photo is Cody sharing a kiss with his Daddy.

My entry is number #531 and it’s my little surfer boy. I just love the expression on his face. So much attitude and strength and character in his little 4 you face! :-)

I just had to enter the picture of sweet Toby! Only 5 days old, and very sleepy! He is on top of an old ammunition box and his daddy was able to see this picture on fathers day while he is overseas fighting for our country!! I’m very excited to be joining in on the contest fun :) So far there are AMAZING entries!!

We were at our son’s house for Father’s Day and he took the opportunity to give his 20 month old son some rowing lessons. Anything his dad does, my grandson is ready to do too — and it looks like he’s bound to be a wonderful oarsman — even if the boat is just on the grass! I love my manly men!

#506 – this was a candid shot of a little boy playing in the backyard with an old grill. It was a perfect shot because we were taking Father’s Day pictures to surprise his dad and he LOVED playing with it. It was NOT posed. His dad is really into grilling so it was just a perfect picture for them. :)

I caught a great moment of my husband’s reflection in my son’s eyes. The photo is definitely going in a frame at my house!

Strummer is my entry! He is usually not still long enough to take his picture. As a matter of fact, that is why he was the last kid at the party to sit for the face painter. After he had his emerged from the tent with his dragon mask, he looked sheepish…highly unusual! But, very cute!

LOVE this challenge. I could submit a million pics of my boys and still not get all my favs! The pic I submitted shows them playing at their best in the sprinkler and I named it Summer Splash. I can’t wait to see what everyone else submitted.

What a perfect theme for this week. I actually did these pictures for Father’s Day and this little boy was one of the most exciting and energetic little men.

I’m at 458 or so…

I was torn on which pic to submit. This one is just so happy which is why it ultimately won. We were at the end of a really long day and daddy was just trying to keep Noah happy. Despite being exhausted he was the life of the party. (and was asleep within the first 5 min of our trek home)

#443 – This was a taken at a wedding I shot a couple of months ago – The FOB is in the middle with the shotgun, the groom on the right, and the rest are the groomsman. They were such a fun couple and SO the epitome of our little town!

I love this photo, of my Dad, brother and nephew, taken at his Christening. Love that I was able to get all 3 of them still for just enough time to take a quick shot, and the expression on my nephews face is just perfect! :0)

The little guy I captured melted my heart the other day at church and I begged his mom to let me take a photograph of him. I sent a copy to her of course. He had such personality!

Mine is titled “My bubbies”. My husband and I finally decided to take our youngest son in for his first haircut. We let our oldest go first and “show him how to do it”. I was taking pictures and then I saw them looking at each other and snapped the shot I submitted. It truly does look like my oldest is showing him how it is done.

What a perfect theme for me! Two grandsons that just fit the bill. The little one is crawling now, and VERY hard to photograph, so this was a rare moment when they were both looking at something in the grass.

Cousin Caper…#360, at least right now…

Love this one because it shows the unpredictability of boys…I thought this would be a simple shot of cousins playing until the older one leaned in and set off the younger one. Boys :)

I’m all about this theme, cause all about my boys! (My honey, & my sweet/naughty/ oh so good at being two-2yr old! ) My shot was taken last Friday night. Daddy just came home from a long week at work, & found Jax & Mama out playing on our deck. Jaxy ran into Daddy’s arm, & ofcourse mama had her camera, & snapped away! I can hear jax a gigglen’ when I look at this picture. Thanks for the perfect theme!

I submitted my entry. This is a first for me. I have always looked at this site but have never taken the time to enter one of my pictures. Awesome theme as I just had my second baby(a boy) well a year ago…and I am just in love with being a mommy again! My oldest is 8 so there’s quite a bit of age gap there but I love it!
