snack time

Siblings sitting on the stoop in the shade...

...sipping and sharing a small sweet snack.

Smiling silently and soaking in the sensational seasonal sky.



Such a special sunny Spring day for snack time on the stoop.

sweet siblings....

...sitting and snuggling on the sofa smiling simultaneously and saying cheessssssssssse!

supermodel material?

For the record-Ryan asked me to take his picture (with Kara's sunglasses on) and HE came up with the poses all by himself!

This kid cracks me up!!

Pajama Day

We Heart Art!

Join the Three Bay B Chicks, Domestically Challenged and Helene from I'm Living Proof that God has a Sense of Humor as they celebrate art and being creative this week. These three blogs are sponsoring an event called "We Heart Art," which gives you the chance to not only showcase your artwork or creative projects, but also your kid's handiwork. Prizes for children and adults will be awarded to a few lucky winners selected at random.

Ok, so I normally do not post for contests on my family blog...but this one seems like a lot of fun, plus it gives me the opportunity to show off my beautiful and extremely gifted child!

And yes, talk about being last minute... Today is the last day to enter into the contest! Click here if you would like to participate!

There is no denying that our son, Ryan takes after his mama in the creative department. Just scroll on down to see his many "artsy" talents!

He can finger paint Picasso off the books!

He LOVES taking pictures...these candid shots were from his 3rd Birthday Party.

Seriously, could you get more artistic than this?!

With a little help from Daddy, he created this beautiful craft flower for me on Mother's Day 2008...soooo creative!

And what's a post without videos? Here is my talented son showing us that he can....

Play the piano...look out Beethoven!

Dance! He's got the moves!!!

(sorry the video is sideways!)



And finally, he proves that he wants to be just like Mom when he grows up by...

Singing! The voice of an angel!

(once again, sorry it's sideways!)

See? Can't get more "artsy" or talented than that!

I hope you enjoyed the show!
