My favorite photos

.. well of this week anyway. I couldn't come up with words, but as I scrolled through iPhoto, I saw our latest photos and they put a smile on my face. They're not the best photos, the golden ratio isn't anywhere to be found and the lighting probably isn't the best either. But it's a little peek into my heart and my family.


Monkey and Roo playing together with Roo's toys. Seeing my children have fun and playing together is one of the best things.


Monkey imagining he was a pilot. How come I often photograph my children with little pieces of breakfast and lunch on their faces. Seriously, how do you keep up with cleaning faces?


I look like I downed a bottle of wine, but I love this photo and Roo's big blue eyes.


Later this week you'll find a new photo on top of my blog. This is the one that didn't make the last cut, but I still love it.


Where did my baby go? Look at her. She is so big.

Why don't you drop me your favorite photo(s) in my new Drop :)

Just click on add files, select the photos you want to drop and then click on Drop It!

To see what was dropped so far, visit my drop.

That's it! I hope you all had a nice weekend!

I love all of those pictures so much. You and your family are so lovely. :)

You and your kids look SO happy together. I am jealous.

Your daughter could not look more like you if she tried.

The 4th pic is my favorite: There you are with your kids, right between the computer and the oven--not a bad place to be at all.

So cute! They are adorable and look so "dutch". I've dropped a picture of my little "dutch treats" (even though they're only like 1/4 dutch).

Stopping by your site for the first time this morning. What a great new find for me. Hooray! Loved this post on your kids, who are absolutely adorable, by the way.

My kid's faces are NEVER clean. They start off the day clean, and often times, end the day the same way, but in between, there are many degrees of cleanliness that occur. I have found that once you have more than one kid, the battle is over and the Mom is on the losing end!

Nadine recommends

Did you know your baby or young toddler can "speak" to you even when (s)he hasn't learned the ability to speak yet? I found out through the blog of Chris that sign language is a GREAT way to enable your young child to communicate with you.

Our 12 month old little Roo knows a few signs already "done" (with eating), "more" (food or drink) and "book/ reading". It was a great succes with our toddler Monkey (now 3, doesn't stop talking but stopped using signs) and we already have so much fun with Roo.

We used this book:

But there are more tools that help you
