Just braggin on the kids pics LOL
Well another sign of spring (other than Saoirse is eating again!) is Jo getting all broody and maternal LOL. Sorry no pics include snakes but hope you enjoy anyways.
Katelyn (Kate) our oldest daughter at age 18. This is her grad pic from last year. She's now in college and building a loving relationship with her partner, Nicole. We're so proud of her and her first full steps into adulthood. It's so neat to get to know my daugther as a young woman not just my oldest kid LOL. Oh and she's more into cornsnakes than anything else (gotta mention snakes!)

Lucas (Luke) our oldest son at age 14. He's such a great young man...a good friend, a cool big brother and hey...he loves his mom! LOL Luke's looking forward to spring when his new young BCI arrives from Lynne. He's going to so hate me though for posting a picture of him with Xmas morning bedhead!

Elizabeth (Beth) our second daughter, age 12. She's showing off her Xmas stuff from gramma (she's a girl though and had to run brush her hair first!). Beth is the proud owner of Emi the albino Nelson's milksnake, hoping to get a male for Emi one day and is big into rat and snake breeding genetics. She's the one in this house that plans on giving Ralph Davis a run for his money someday LOL.

Michael (Mikey) our youngest at age 4. This is Robot, one of his many favorite best toys in the world LOL. Mikey loves to talk to my forum friends on the phone....he calls Robin "the lady that talks funny" (her southern accent amazes him) and Jeanne always gets "bye, I love you!" when he's done explaining his latest army man war to her. Mikey is just starting to like the snakes but still longs for a puppy someday.

What a beautiful family Jo!!
Re: Just braggin on the kids pics LOL
Nice looking clutch there!
Good thing I'm not in your circle calling or they might form a much different opinion of your board buddies hehe!
Re: Just braggin on the kids pics LOL
Jo! What beautiful kids!! Looks like you have every reason to be totally into the Proud Mama scene!! :hug:
Re: Just braggin on the kids pics LOL
What a beautiful family! Geez, kids grow up so fast. I feel like I just had mine, and all of a sudden they are 4 and 6. :tears:
Hey no love for the hubby? ;) :D
Re: Just braggin on the kids pics LOL
Nice to see I'm not the only one with 4 kids....well actually I have 3 and one due within a month. Of course me and my wife are only 26 (almost 27)...so we get a lot of comments on having 4 kids already (we're done now)....I love them though....and am happy to have them. Some people today think kids are a curse...but I still call them a blessing! But anyways this isn't about me ;) .....nice family you got there!!!
Re: Just braggin on the kids pics LOL
Thanks everybody! Christie, I've posted lots of pics of Mike LOL. Today is happy momma day (must be the first day of spring stuff).
Congrats chkm8 on the upcoming baby! Four is a big family nowadays but I'm thrilled to have them all, though having my last child when my oldest was 14 was an ever so fun experience LOL. I figured it out once....get this...
I have kids born in 1987, 1991, 1993 and 2001....therefore...I've given birth in three different decades and two different millenium....kinda scarey! LOL Next year I will have for a period of time 3 teenagers! Now that is scarey!!!!
LOL Matt, I figure your own kids are putting up with you and mine are used to a mother that's slightly off kilter so no biggie to them! After all one of my parenting tricks in order to keep my 4 in line at the grocery store is to threaten to sing loudly (and very badly) to the piped in muzak....if that doesn't get immediate good behaviour....I offer to add in choreography! (oh I dance about as well as I sing LMAO). Amazing at that point how all 4 kids suddenly exhibit the most amazing good manners!

Hahahaha. All of ours will be in HS next year - yippikiyay as they say in "Die Hard"!
I have similar "control tactics" which usually involve belting out the GOULET! or any number of adopted dialects - the more public and crowded the situation or location the better and faster they work!
Unfortunately these displays catch Smynx in their broadcasts too - as a result when we usually hit the mall or store everyone scatters from me right off the bat. I act all indignant and wounded and then enjoy my solo time hehe.

Wow that is one cute family!
