IG {Fav Foto Friday}

I have not had my big-girl camera with me too much this week - "Bad Mama!" (as Milo now likes to say)!
So here are some InstaGram pics I've taken over the last couple weeks.

I've been slightly obsessed with sunsets (& one sunrise) the last few weeks.
My mom *loved* beautiful skies.
I guess she passed it on to me.
Every time I see it, I think of her, and know that she would appreciate it.

This one is just too cute not to put in here.
He'll probably be very upset with me one day for publishing this.
Oh well.
Potty training is not going as well as I'd like...
He sort of understands it, but is still totally cool with going in the diaper.
It's usually after the fact that he wants to go "try."

A certain little girl discovered a loose tooth this week.
So the tooth fairy has been busy making a special box for her tooth to go in when it finally comes out.
Although Xandra loves the box... she is petrified of that tooth actually coming out.
She will not let a soul near her mouth right now- not even to brush teeth (I usually just do a quick once-over when she's done anyway, just to make sure she got everything... but no more).
She barely lets me look in her mouth, even with my hands completely behind my back & promises that I will NOT touch.
The adult tooth has already broken through, and is trying its darndest to push that little tooth out.
I imagine we only have another week or so before it comes out, though I don't know for sure just how loose it is (see note above about the no touching!).

Instagram {Fav Foto Friday}

I have joined the Instagram craze. I don't use it as much as some others - I haven't fully embraced it yet. I will say it is very convenient, though.

I just read this article yesterday, and got very inspired. In fact, I just ordered my first set of IG pics for less than $5! I've been so good about taking pics & even uploading them to the blog.... then I drop the ball & never get any printed out!

Milo actually pointed out that I have a bunch of pictures of Xandra printed & framed (from when she was really little & we used to go get professional portraits taken a lot cause this mama didn't know how to use her camera!), but not so many of Milo. How sad!! I've been trying to remedy that. So, here are a few of my fav IG pics from the last few months. I'll probably be posting some IG pics about once a month or so (that's my goal at least).

And getting them printed out!!!

iPhone lets me sneak pics of sleeping kiddos so much easier than the big camera!

Xandra & Milo hanging out in a tunnel at our FCC play group.

Love getting sky pictures from my car!

Back when it was semi-cold in our pseudo-winter.
Xandra waiting for the school bus.

Could he be any cooler??

Oh-so-cute faces of Milo

Love this one (partly cause I'm actually in it!)
Milo enjoys waking from his nap & cuddling & sleeping some more.

Our family's first s'mores experience
(I know... we live a sheltered existence...)

Blue cupcake at a friend's birthday party.
It stained his face for the rest of the day.
Fun.

Have a fun weekend!
