http://swansandcygnets.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

My little man, my chatterbox, my smartypants, my hero and me. Friday, May 27, 2011. Which picture to post, so I sort of posted a lot of them. These are the WONDERFUL pictures taken by Jennifer McKinney, AKA MckMama. Susan and I had a really fun day driving to Charlotte with all four kids (yes, we're probably a little crazy). But it was well worth it, and here's the proof. One of my faves. Absolutely my favorite- it captures him so well! Eli was a little mad about getting a picture,. My sweet little man.

My little man, my chatterbox, my smartypants, my hero and me. Thursday, August 26, 2010. Summer Alphabet Adventures: E. E is for.East! So maybe this is as far as we got over the summer, mostly because of my morning sickness making it nearly impossible to get out in the heat, but I think the boys had fun with it anyway. Maybe I can continue it into the fall, you know, when my energy comes back and it's not so hot outside! Zack's picking up seashells to decorate the mini-castles. The storm decided to stall...

My little man, my chatterbox, my smartypants, my hero and me. Wednesday, August 3, 2011. Which boy is which? Wordless Wednesday: Four Months. Alphabet Adventures 2011: Letter K. K is for.kisses! And kangaroo, too. At evening storytime, the boys heard stories and all about animals from Australia. They made a kangaroo craft using dots and stamps. We also read the book "The Kissing Hand." And then, sometime around that time, we made kiss cookies. I have a couple of good baking helpers. Our Family of Five.

My little man, my chatterbox, my smartypants, my hero and me. Friday, May 7, 2010. Zack was so excited yesterday to have moved his clip up to BLUE! They can move their clips down for bad behavior and up for good behavior, and blue is the highest level. He's been striving for it for a while. We are so proud of him! His special treat for his achievement was to play in the sprinkler with his friends and a special sundae dessert. Xander racing down the hill. Mark's cool down was racing Zack down the block.

Zack climbing up, posing and hopping down the slide. We tried foo...
