last weekend, james took the boys to the grocery store to pick up some breakfast items. that morning, i realized why they always behave so well for him at the store: they go right to the junk food and buy all the sugary, mama-never-lets-us get cereals. they came home and ate lucky charms for a week worth of mornings. now, it is back to cheerios and fruit for breakfast.
i'm a mean, mean mama.
we missed mother's day with my mom this year, so a week later, we met her at the botanical gardens. we could not have asked for a better day. the lilly pond was in full bloom and full of goldfish, bullfrogs and tadpoles. the whole place was full of puffy hydrangeas, and lane even stopped for a second to kiss me among my favorite flowers. evan played in the splash pad for the first time and loved it. and, as always, lane insisted we stop for a quick photo with the thinking frog before leaving.
most of the time, evan looks so much like james to me. lately, however, people have been stopping me when we are out and commenting on facebook about how he looks like me. i couldn't quite figure it out. then i saw these two photos at the same time and came to the conclusion that he only looks like me when he's eating. must be something about those chubby cheeks and squinted eyes: my two least favorite features on myself. funny, i think they are just charming on him.
