Photo Hunt #8 - Dark

I don't have many pictures about Dark that aren't obviously dark. But what I do have is Comic-Con. JM went to Comic-con last month and there was a lot of darkness there. Here's just one picture of the Dark Place.

Funny faces

I realize that most of my posts have been about my little man, while my baby boy has been left out a little. So I decided it's time to show a little of what Adrien is about. This past weekend, I dubbed him "busy body" and "chatterbox". Yes, my 14 month old, won't stop walking around and touching things, and climbing stairs and getting into anything he can. While he moves around "busy," he chatters away in baby gibberish without a care about being heard or not. His "words" have definite sounds too, yesterday when I picked him up from the sitters he sounded like he was speaking in Spanish, when I brought him home the "words" sounded different, definitely more English. But what most distinguishes Adrien, are his funny faces. Above are some of his funniest and below are a few of his most recent expressions, Enjoy:

Photo Hunt #7 - Clouds

For this week's theme I was a little ahead of myself, however, I forgot to post it on Saturday so, I'm behind again. Go figure. But it's here it is. It was pretty rainy in Paris when we were there in March, see Pointed post for more details. Here's a Cloudy sky at the Louvre.

Photo Hunt #6 - Hanging

My baby came home last week on Wednesday night. I was very happy to have him home, and he was happy to come home. He had a great vacation. On Friday he went back to school and the teacher had him stand up in front of the class and tell everyone what he did during his vacation. He's been talking my ear off ever since. If he talked a lot before he went to spend time with his cousin, he talks even more now!!

For this week's theme I have a couple of pics of Ricky when he was on vacation. The one on top has his cousin Gabby making sure he doesn't fall and the one below shows him hanging from a pole.

similarities

Today is Wednesday, July 16th, night number 2 without my first baby. Ricky is vacationing with my sister, and my parents in Massachusetts, without his parents. He's not missing us. I talked with him for about 15 seconds this morning, as long as we could keep him on the phone. Seems like he's having fun. Mommy...not so much. I have a constant yucky feeling in the pit of my tummy. The kind you get when you're young with a boyfriend who hasn't called you in a few days or one who's broken up with you...
So I've decided to take this opportunity to write about how much alike my boys look. See pictures below: Adrien and Ricky are eating blueberries on the couch, their favorite thing to do. Adrien is laughing because his brother is laughing and everything that Ricky does is good for Adrien. Except for the age difference you can tell how alike they look, and it's not because of the red shirts.
Here's another.
Ok, so they're in their underwear, they're little, it's still ok. Again, there's not much explaining the similarities, just look at their faces.

Let me tell you though for similarities, looks are the biggest. Their personalities? Not so much.
