Spring Photo Session

Boy am I glad it is over. We took the boys yesterday to have their spring photos made. We dressed them in crisp white dress shirts and jeans. We had their hair combed and faces clean. It did not last!

Getting photos made of the boys is hard as heck. I do not have one photo since birth that Chasen has not been crying in. He could care less of a stranger playing peek a boo or making a silly noise so he can pose for the camera. He hates it! He will lower his little head and just bust out like his heart is broken. Chasen dislikes anyone talking to him that close or touching him and he does not know them. This time was no exception.

Alex of course loves a camera. We had several of those forced 4 yr old grins that looks like he is in pain and he is posing. The one of them together was a fun one to get. It was the first one we did and wow it took forever. Alex was all into laughing because if he posed the puppy she had would poot. Go figure! Sitting Chasen in his lap was the beginning of war war 3. Chasen wanted to lean into Alex and wrestle while Alex did nothing but try an squeeze the life out of Chasen. They would melt to the table in a pile of body heat in pure laughter.

So here are the photos. Not a hair in place any longer, shirts all out of sorts, tears here and there but they are my boys and we were glad to get what we did!

Spring Photos of the Boys

"Mommy you puke like Casey"

Geee out of the mouth of babes! Alexander informed me yesterday that I was doing just like a classmate. He stormed into the restroom asking ' Are you ok?' How do you answer a 4 year old when your hung over the john? Sure Honey Mommy is Dandy!

I am certain Alexander brought this bug home from school to us. How thoughtful it is to share germs. :) He was not himself on Thursday but never threw up. He had some other issues but I assumed it was from his emotional day and from his asthma attack he has earlier. But Chasen woke up Saturday morning with it and it was nasty. Since Chasen clings to me and shares such wet kisses I was next. All that is left is for Dennis to catch it.

What a great welcome home gift to daddy huh? Coming home with gifts for everyone and were all sick. Chasen is still laying around and acting all tired. I do not think he is quite 100% yet.

So here is to a great March Spring Break! No school, but we kicked it off sick with a virus - from Casey!
