Whew...

Saturday is always our busy day... We have games, events things we need to do. And although my Saturdays are my busy days, it is my fun day.  I love seeing all the hard work the kids do in practice pay off.  Lala had a soccer game.. Woo hoo, they won!  And Papos had a baseball game.. Woo Hoo.. they don't take score yet but according to us .. .they won!!  

I've came up with a realization that I have an addiction.. I take my camera everywhere with me.. I take pictures and picture,  I worry about two main things... What if I take my camera with me so much that I break it.. and what if my subjects.. the kids.. don't want me to take a picture of them.. I also worry that if I don't bring it ... what if I miss something cute.. what if I find a place that I like and don't have a picture to take...  What would i do..   So I just take it with me.. And am real careful with the camera and the kids have no choice.. Besides I think they are use to it.

And my quiet little boy.. has came out of his shell.. He growls at us when things don't go his way.. yes I had my camera and took a pic of him growling.. Next is a video.

And here is a quick trick how to entertain your child when they are throwing a fit and crying... Is to take them for a little walk and take pictures.. that puts a smile to their face.

And yes when we went out to eat.. and in the parking lot the kids found a place where they can be silly and pose for the camera.. Doing what they do.

Easter Weekend

Last week my mom asked me if I had a recent family picture of us that she could use.  I realized ... that we didn't. At least not a good quality one where you can see all of our faces and know that we are all there.  So that motivated us for a day of pictures.  And boy did we snap. So here is your warning... You will be flooded with pictures today.

Grandparents with the kids





You know I don't know if its that my memory is really bad but I don't remember our traditions that we had with the kids.  I mean.. I don't remember getting the kids an Easter basket full of stuff from the Easter bunny.  I just remembered getting the baskets so they could get the eggs.  But I guess I was wrong.  Cause poor Papos woke up asking me, "I wonder where the Bunny left my basket.. maybe he is late.."  Damn did I feel bad.. Although I know that Easter is not Christmas and I wont go crazy buying gifts galore.. but I guess candy, maybe bubbles or a book won't hurt.  SO I write this so that I remember NEXT YEAR>.. TO be prepared.. dang it!  On a side note.. I did go to the store.. bought some stuff.. Still haven't had time to put it in the basket and hide it from the kids.. I guess they can wait till tomorrow.  But you can see with the pic.. they didn't mind.

HAM

And I guess another tradition that some people have.. is eat ham... I'm new to all this.  These are things I just don't know why.. i don't know?  But I guess we can say we are part of it too... if you consider Ham sandwich meat fed to the babies... ham...

And after the hunt and the pictures.. We took a nap then went for a walk.  We figured we would walk and enjoy the sun and have some lunch.. Um we forgot or just didn't realize that everything downtown.. was closed.  I guess they all celebrate Easter too..
Photobucket 
Although our walk was accompanied by my camera... I couldn't resist... and neither could they...

And  Lala.. and I were practicing her Senior Portraits.. I know I know a little bit early.. you think... Well she didn't mind.. She's a ham too.. so I guess she follows the Ham on Easter tradition too!
