Beautiful Boys

I was looking at Pumpkin Patch pictures to decide which humorous angle I'd take on my next post. Remember, I started this blog because these kids are so funny. Sometimes, though, their beauty just halts me. Smile...








Okay! Enough of the mushy stuff! Let's get back to our roots here. Of course, we can't have a nice, calm day at the patch. There's got to be drama, action, comedy, and some sort of peril (in this case it was me trying to keep up with three kids running in opposite directions within 20 feet of a major road).

We started by Mom trying to get a good picture of all four boys. It was a lost cause. It was the wrong time of day and the sun was in their eyes. Poor Cade...

Then, Mom had to try to get the cheeky shot of a baby in the pumpkin patch. Not only is this one of the worst pictures of Cade ever (what's up with that right ear?), but also one of my worst attempts EVER at a cute picture. It occurs to me that he looks a bit like Sloth from Goonies?


Next, we have the Chronicles of the Quitter Jeans. You know what quitter socks are, right? The ones that keep sliding down your calves like they are just...too...tired...to...stay...up...
Stone had quitter jeans on; which is interesting, because they were two sizes too small for him.
At first, he had no knowledge of this problem.

Then, he made half-hearted attempts to rectify the situation (including enlisting big bro's help).

Finally, he gave himself up to defeat and just went about his business with pants fully down. Ahh... life before self-esteem issues...

Here are the action shots:

Here is the drama:

And here is the picture that almost came out good. I can't WAIT for Stone to come out of this fake smile stage.
