Jazz and I went outside last Sunday and found all of our children with out much clothing. It was very hot, do you blame them? It was so nice to just sit outside and watch the kids all playing so well together.
This is Helga the Wrestler as Jasper calls her. She's actually quite strong...strong enough to push Mr. T all over the yard...
Finally a photo with this little lady with no front teeth. Where does the time go?
Love how they stripped down for the heat! And love that your oldest lost both teeth at the same time. I think my oldest did too but my 2nd one just lost her 2nd front tooth, but the other one has been out and back in for quite some time. There's just something cute about a totally toothless front like that!!
Your kids are so stinking cute! I just looked at your photo blog and you are amazing! I guess I could have left a comment there, sorry:) I love the pictures of Bethi Seaman, she IS so photogenic. Thanks for share you talent with us, I love it!
You know - in 95 degree weather - they have the right idea! Although, I don't think the neighbors would appreciate it too much if Greg and I ran around in our undies. They are so cute! How funny is that picture of Tae in her diaper and rag-a-muffin pigtails! So adorable!
Sweet! They really are the cutest. Too bad our kids can't run around half naked. They'd burn their feet on the melting grass and have 3rd degree burns on the rest of their body too. Stinking Phx and 117 degree weather! UGH! I can't wait till fall, or winter for that matter, I guess those seasons are the reason we live here.
So cute, my kids love being mostly naked, so it's nice to know that it's more a kid thing than a future nudist thing. :) Maddie & Nathan are both missing the same two front teeth, maybe we can get them to sing all I want for christmas is my two front teeth together!
okay - the b&w of 'helga'....I swear I've seen a picture of you doing the EXACT same pose... YES. - I think maybe from your h.s. days...in front of a group of guys (Jess has a memory book) CRAZY! I LOVE IT. :)
first of all, so dang cute. Second, I would really like to know why it's so inappropriate for adults to do this. I mean, really. What's there to be ashamed of? It IS hot- clothes are ridiculous! Hee hee.
"You make a living by what you get, you make life by what you give."
Out of the mouths of babes
5/11 Tae: "My dad is bigger than my mom and my mom is mini-er than my dad"
5/11 Tae: "Don't coffee me!!!" she and paige seem to think the word for copy is actually coffee.
05/11 Tae: After going in the front yard after me telling her not to.. " oh mom, I accidentally thought the front was the back"
03/09: Maddie: " Why do we have to pay taxes? Why do they have to have laws...like pay your taxes? Or don't stand on swivel chairs?" Ha ha!!
12/08: Tanner: "mom, don't pick your nose and throw it on the ground or you will slip on it like a banana peel. So you have to put it on a picture, or a high shelf"
Tae 3/09: Today she was looking for little scab on her hand and noticed it was gone. So she said "Mom, my owie went home!"
2/09 Maddie: Kimi is eating a burger, Mad hates red meat. "Mmmm, that looks good" Me: "But you don't even like hamburgers!" Maddie: "But if it were the only food left on earth, I'd pound it."
12/08 Tanner: "Mom, when can we get out our bean stocks?" I realized he was talking about Christmas Stockings. :)
11/08 I'm in the bathroom, alone. But never really alone. Maddie comes to the door and says "mom what was your best moment?" Uh, can we talk about this later?
11/08 Tanner: "Mom, is my bones warm or hot?" later that day..."I wish our house was made of nachos." Ya, me too.
10/08 Me" Well Maddie when I was little I only got a quarter or 50 cents for a tooth" Maddie" Ya, well that was in the OLDEN DAYS mom! The tooth fairy hardly had any money then."
9/08 Tan:" Mom, when you have the new baby, will we sell Taelyn?"
01/08 Maddie: "Guess what Mom, when I lose my front tooth the tooth fairy brings me $20" What?? Who said that? "A girl in my class! I'm so excited to get my very own $20!"
10/07 Madeline: "Mom I remember what it was like to live with Jesus before I was born" Oh really? "Ya, it looked just like it does here, but it was on clouds."
09/07 Tanner: "Mom sometimes your mean to me, but Sister Castleberry (nursery teacher) is always nice to me...like this many times ( he holds up his little 5 fingers right in my face)" How cute is he??
Just the other day Madeline came to me after practicing some intricate dance moves with Jaren and said "Mom, I just wish I could marry Jaren because he dances with me, he does whatever I say, and he's such a gooood guy. Why can't I marry my brother? " I then explained just why we don't marry our siblings. Hopefully she'll have no problem finding a guy just like Jaren in 20 years.
"Shake your bootie, shake your bootie..." This goes along with a mooning of sorts by the 3 yr. old Tanner
“Do you wish you were Dad so you wouldn’t have to change Taelyn’s diaper or do all the work, and you could be at church on time?” -Maddie
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.
The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face.
If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I'm a coward.
I bet one legend that keeps recurring throughout history, in every culture, is the story of Popeye.
When you go in for a job interview, I think a good thing to ask is if they ever press charges.
To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music, no choreography, and the dancers hit each other.
We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. But we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me.
Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than some sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.
If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.
I love my family, practical jokes, laughing, people who say it like it is, meeting new people, and long walks on the beach...hahaha. I hate being late, mustard, and tours of any kind.
