No way! I did soap bubbles too! But yours are much nicer than mine, though (well, as usual)…

The last picture is just fantastic, but my favourite is the one with the chalky toes.

Those bubble pics are awesome. I keep trying, but I’ve yet to get anything close to those. My lil guy SPAZZES out at bubbles every time we bring them out. I think of the crazy fish from Nemo and laugh, hoping my kid is normal.

#14 by Connie on August 17, 2008 - 2:42 AM

The Braden ones are adorable as always~w/my fave Braden ones being Chalk Foot & Chalk Toes.

♥ The Mexican one! We had a Chihauhau that’s now in Doggie Heaven ( ) & his name was Happy. We named him that because he was always “smiling” & just seemed “happy” all the time. I think it’s so sweet when animals look like they’re smiling & The Mexican is no exception

The bubble shots are amazing! I need to get out our bubbles for the boys~for FUN & for PICS

Now, it’s back to bed for me~I fell asleep & had planned to get back up to post my WW’s for the week WAY earlier than this but woke up about 20 minutes ago & decided to go ahead & post them & then come back & visit everyone else later today when Kendall’s napping

#18 by Lilacspecs on August 17, 2008 - 4:12 AM

I don’t think I can even pick a favorite this week, they are all so fantastic in their own ways. The reflection in the bubble is awesome and I like the chain links too. They seem to stick out for some reason…maybe for the austerity of the shot and the way the light glances off the chain.

#19 by river on August 17, 2008 - 4:38 AM

I love the bubbles and the happy Mexican. He almost looks like he’s about to laugh out loud.

#20 by Judith Shakespeare on August 17, 2008 - 5:19 AM

The shot of him walking across the chalked ground is AWESOME. There’s absolutely nothing about it that I don’t love. Beautiful job!

#21 by Vicky from Secret Mom Thoughts on August 17, 2008 - 5:57 AM

Great shots. I love the last bubble shot. I also really love those Braden toes.

#25 by texasholly @ June Cleaver Nirvana on August 17, 2008 - 6:57 AM

#37 by A Serious Attempt at Fun on August 17, 2008 - 9:54 AM

I’m trying to figure out what is reflected in the second bubble. A big building? Where does the spiral come from?

Your boy’s baby legs are so delicious. My babies were all rolly polly like that. I loved the fat wrinkles at the wrist. And those thighs!

Enjoy every secoond! I know it is a cliche – but they grow so fast! My oldest two are now huge and stinky! And I’m not allowed to pat their bottoms anymore! Wah.

Love the bubbles and the little chalky baby feet, what is that horror movie one, it is really cool!

#42 by Elaine on August 17, 2008 - 11:25 AM

I think it’s cute how your little guy hangs out in his undies a lot! I mean you gotta stay cool in the Summer, right?
I love the one of his legs and feet.

happy Sunday lotus! Love your pics as always but you know I am a sucker for the Mexican. I hear rumors he has a myspace. So sad he hasn’t added me as a friend.

#44 by Karin on August 17, 2008 - 12:37 PM

I did bubbles in Friday’s post! Yours are awesome though, I love the reflection in that last bubble shot. I find them so difficult to photograph!
