Cuter Pictures of Cuter Kids

"Let me whisper something in your ear Melanie!"

Where is that ear again? (Time for a haircut?)

"Woo, woo!"

"Goggy!"

These hands seem to be mine...

but what are they for?

Every now and then I am tempted to write a long deep blog.
But then I don't have time.
Or don't want to say stuff anymore.
:p

I got a CD with all the pictures on, and here are most of them:

Mommy Roze's Photo Shoot

Inspired by my friend, I tried my best to capture my only awake child while I was in the "artistic mood".




Maybe I'll try again with one of the boys next time...
how do I rate for an amateur?

Top quality through the window pictures

The kids are busy outside as I type. I didn't dare step outside and get nice pictures because
1. The neighbours might see me and think I'm weird
2. The kids will see me and likely go back inside with me.

Instead, I leaned awkwardly at the window with my camera in order to get a good angle. This, I'm sure, looked perfectly normal to my neighbours.

Note the beautiful new asphalt! We got that a week or two ago now...but only we were the lucky ones. Around the corner, just past where you can't see anymore, it is still dirt.
Wasn't it nice of them to even go so far that we wouldn't see any inconsistencies in the completion of road work from our yard?
Some people are so thoughtful!

Cheers to good friends!

Photo credits go to a good friend of mine.
These pics were taken while I was
gallivanting on the other side of the country with Matthew.

My friend used to take pictures for weddings.

You can tell she has a more professional flare than I do.

The kids don't say "cheese" or "peanut butter" for her
EVERY time she takes out the camera either.




Matthew's picture was taken today.
Before he got covered in mud.
Head to toe.

They all got a bath when we got home.
Before supper.
Good thing I had a freezer meal ready.

I have cheered up. (Thanks Marian) I do plan on the canoe trip next week...
but we'll skip the Arctic...
and the baby can enjoy it "in utero" this year. (I hope)
(Hmmm...what would it be like to deliver a baby in backcountry Algonquin?)

It is great having a friend you can call up and say "Can you watch my kids for a while today?" and she genuinely ENTHUSIASTICALLY accepts--but not only that, she also says when you leave "Anytime, (add your name here), call me up to watch the kids again, anytime!" And not only that--but she's great fun to talk to, an excellent mentor, and a good example.
Makes it hard to go home when all is said and done.

Self examination


After some close scrutiny, I have decided my picture looks better than the critters picture of this morning.

I do not like my glasses though. They don't sit right. One nose piece is getting discolored because it doesn't sit right. (Perhaps it's time to go in and get a pro to adjust them AFTER replacing the gross nose piece.)

From that angle I have a lovely double chin. But I'm supposed to be gaining weight right now, it's HEALTHY for me. Bring on the fresh fruits! My midwife feels my diet could use improvement--less fruits for snacks, and more raw veggies and nutty things. Yum. Drool. Haha.

My hair could use some work, but at least I haven't had any acne alerts lately (bonus of pregnancy).

I also note on the photo that it's getting late.

G'night from your best bantering beautiful brightest blogger,
Mommy Roze.

Non-Compliance

I guess having a smile for the camera isn't always necessary...but some days it IS a lot of work to even get a face captured.
(I hope everyone feels tonnes of gratitude for my dedication in blogging pictures of the kids!)

The kids were playing so cutely that I thought some casual playing shots would be just the thing to spice up life.

As soon as Melanie saw the camera she hid her face and yelled, "No!!"

But Mommy Roze is very strong, so she gets a face photographed in the end.

It looked like such a fun battle to Nathan thought he ought to be difficult too!

After such a workout,

you'd think they were considering surrender and cooperation!
But that isn't the case.
They merely stopped hiding in order to explain "plan b" to me.


Run for your life Mommy Roze!!

(I ran!)

Glasses upon glasses

Full of pun and artist flair,
As usual.

Can you see the wonderful clarity that my new camera gives? Perhaps not, but that's 'cause I still need to figure out how to use it better.

A confession: I have learned that complaining constantly can cause camera to come. Congrats me. :) Now I only need to figure out what to do with my HUGE STASH of dead AA batteries. Perhaps one of you would like to do a science experiment on anything relating to battery disposal, battery leaking, or battery acid burns? Any takers?

Profile


Y'all haven't seen a profile picture of me in eons, as far as I can recall. So here is proof that I still do have a profile. It may not be my most flattering pose, but I am a mere mortal after all, and not all of my photographs need to be flattering.

Anger is "an emotional state that varies in intensity from mild irritation to intense fury and rage,"

You may have a guess at the intensity.

Right now I can't upload any pictures. First of all, I'm on the Unix half of our computer (more commonly known as Phil's side). I can't figure out how to get pictures up on this side...far too complex for a gal like me who has NO experience with anything even as basic as DOS. And there's graphical user interface for me yet...apparently he's working on it... So the back up plan is to reboot and do it on our Windows half of the computer...but unfortunately by the time I gave up the camera batteries are dead. And we have no more undead AA batteries left. Our camera eats them in a few days, or with minimal use, it only takes a week. Besides, I'm not even sure if I have any new pictures to astound you with. ((anyone want to get me a new camera?))

ANYWAYS...the point is:

now
I
am
ANGRY!!

Request your size here, and I'll mail or email it, according to your specifications.

We're the best looking family that I know of. Superlative in all respects, I'm sure. Photo credits go to the sister-in-law whose contiguity to myself is magnanimously appreciated.
