Party of Five: Wet Noodles

My sweet sister in law recently broke out the wet noodles. The whippin' didn't really hurt (wet noodles hardly can) but the message was clear. More pictures of my niece and nephews. :) Well Carrie these are for you (and Nanna, Gram, Nene, Gina, Janie, GGrandmaT, GGrandmaS, and anyone else who loves my children).

We were outside playing today after naps. Please disregard the no pants no shoes look. We were in the backyard out of the view of the general public.

If you ever have trouble getting natural smiles out of a young child, here's my strategy. Start asking them to make silly faces. Growl, Frown, Cry, Scared etc and pretty soon they're cracking up at them selves and making real smiles instead of forced ones. Here's a snap of Lianna's scary face.
