Say Cheese

Why do children plaster on fake smiles upon being asked to smile for the camera? Tristan can hold his own with the best of the fakers. And how about that dirty face? One thing I said my children would never have - dirty faces. Now I am just happy if they are fully clothed. Clean faces are completely over rated.
Heidi's "smile" face for the camera.
And then there is Eden. If only we were all so blessed with natural ease around a camera. Her smile is never fake!!
So typical for Eden. A smile that ends in a full fledged laugh!
Her and Heidi both really like helping to unload the dishwasher. Someone please tell me their desire to help is not a passing phase.
A true Heidi smile. So sweet with the drool about to drip from her chin.
Mark cut down a tree last week that was hollow on the inside. The tree had barely hit the ground and Tristan was inside the stump. We later burned almost the entire tree inside of the stump. It doesn't take much to entertain around here.
And lastly, here is Judah on his first day of school. He is liking it a lot and is very excited to be giving the saxophone a try this year. Good thing I have gotten pretty skilled at ignoring sounds that can otherwise drive one to banging their head off the wall. Not saying my son will make obnoxious sounds with the saxophone. Although the likelihood of squeaks and squawks is pretty good.
