Five pictures is worth several blog posts, right?

So even though I can’t put too many sentences together in a row, I figured I could put up some pictures. Besides, both my mother and mother-in-law have gone above and beyond the call of duty as far as reading my blog goes. My mom just recently decided to get Internet access, and my blog was one of the first websites she visited. And my mother-in-law, who is on vacation in Florida, is still checking in to read my blog from afar and even commented on my New Year’s Meditations post. So I figure that those grandmas deserve a picture or two of their (favorite) grandkids.


L. has a habit of sticking his tongue out when he’s concentrating or when he’s happy or when he’s just playing. I’m glad I finally captured it on film because I’m sure it won’t be long until he’s on to some new adorable quirk.


This is a picture of L. from this morning. I think he’s saying, “Ha ha! I’ve had mom up since 4 a.m. and while she’s stumbling around in a sleep-deprived stupor, I’m laughing in my high chair!”


This is what you get when you let your 8-year-old play with the digital camera.


Although I claim to be a writer, C.’s the one around here who’s actually producing books. This is him working on his latest book, entitled, “Droid Story.” He tells me that it’s about what happens to R2-D2′s mini army of droids when they set out to defeat the Second Death Star. I think he’s been playing a little too much Lego Star Wars II.


This one’s here because C. thought I should include a picture of Sprite. I am a tad bit envious of her life: sleep most of the day in a nice comfy bed; get up to eat or go lie in the sun or just wander around; whine at people when you feel like it; go back to bed. I could handle that schedule for a day or two, I think.

    Pictures count. Definitely. C. is growing up as fast as L.. And I can relate about Sprite . . . as we speak, you know who is fast asleep with you know who else!!! While yours truly takes down the Christmas decorations. The life some people have!

    That cute little, adorable bundle is the one who has made you into a sleep deprived zombie?! :vD

    I think God knew what He was doing when He made them so darn cute! How can anyone be mad at that owner of that sweet face!

    Good for C.’s writing. Maybe I’ll be adding his novels to my Reading Lists one day!

    I just can’t get over how clean your floors are! The hardwood is beautiful. :-)

    I just love seeing photos of your kids — they’re cuter’n bugs in a rug! Good for C. for writing stories! I’m always so thrilled to see kids being creative like that.

    C. is right — you should always include a picture of the kitty, and what a beautiful one she is!

    I love the photos of your kids! L. is so cute, and I loved your description of C.’s latest book- my 7 year old makes books about “super lizard”-I would never had thought to describe it in a post, but maybe I will now!
    self portraits by kids…I have several, I also have many of stuffed animals and horse models posed with flowers and stuff.

    Sprite!! he’s my hero. You are right, what a life!

    thanks for sharing!

    Yea! Pictures do count! And all those cute pictures of L.. . . . it makes it hard to be mad at him for being a “bad baby.”

    Good for C. writing all those books. Keep it up!

    I have to admit I cringed when I read that he got you up at 4 a.m. Good grief, that’s just way too early.

    Adorable photos. Of all three of your kids! I could definitely live on Sprite’s schedule.
