The third one is totally my favorite! Love the angle and the bright colors against the bright white.
(I don’t think you have a problem. I would have done the same thing. LOL!)

Great winners, as always
My faves are: Momma *might* have a problem (I’m the same way w/both my boys toys!), Cheesing for the camera (what a ham!), & Best toys (BOTH of my boys would rather play w/a box any day of the week~& have quite the imaginations as I’m sure Braden already does too!)! Fun pics this week!

He looks so big…

#23 by Renee Daniels on July 13, 2008 - 9:48 AM
He is the perfect little subject for pictures. That grin just melts me everytime. Have to say, I’d have done the same thing with the toys. Great angle on them though.

I love pictures of your Braden. He looks so grown-up since you cut his hair. My grandma heart misses those curls.

The box is fun too, funny how they find the *free* stuff the most fun, while all the expensive toys lie there being ignored. lol

I can’t believe how much older Braden has started looking just in the past few months. He looks more like a big boy every single day. It’s making me teary, and I’m not even his mother.

#50 by Stephanie on July 14, 2008 - 7:11 AM
I think our boys are almost exactly the same age. So I can totally relate! Logan has the same water socks. So cute!
Bath time at your house looks waaaaay more fun than it is at our house!
I cannot, for the life of me, get Logan to keep a bib on. Little monster!
And yes, boxes are the *best*! P.S. – you could look at this as another “going green” – use, use, & re-use. I’m sure it will take Braden awhile to get tired of this thing. Try decorating it – my kids love it!
