Photo story friday- the real leader of the pack.


Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek




5 nice kids all lined up in a row, in their Easter finery. matchy matchy is the way to go at my house. and this year was no exception.

a perfect picture aside from the toddler laying in the grass, a silent protest if you will , ageism, DISCRIMINATION! the thought of lining up in birth order was just too much for that kid. an obvious refusal to follow suit.

refusing to participate, until he took his rightful place as...



THE LEADER OF THE PACK!

occasionally the youngest member is the natural leader, and most definitely rules the roost.

The Alpha male , as seen here in his natural habitat.


Happy Photo Friday! and thanks for stopping by!

I totally love the picture with Pierce on the grass. I think it gives that picture so much character! If they were all standing in a row it would be super cute, but not nearly as fun.

Laura said...

That first picture of your youngest in the grass is HYSTERICAL! I didn't notice him at first until you pointed it out. Its good that you still took the shot cause that will def be a conversation piece years to come. They are all adorable!

The pic of your youngest on the grass is hilarious! SO SWEET!

The youngest has a way of being like that. It's how my brother is, and it's how all the kids at work are who have older siblings.

AutoSysGene said...

Sheesh! I can barely dress one kis and make her look passible. How in the hell do you manage to get 6 kids looking that put together?

You are my hero!

Too cute! That's usually how it goes though. My youngest is the same way. I'm curious to see how this will go when the new baby shows up.

Kendra said...

I have been reading your comments on some other blogs and I finally came over to check out your site. Love it. The story it your kids and picture time is perfect. Why won't they just all look cute and perfect at the same time?!? I am trying to train mine young, but it isn't working well for me. Someone is ALWAYS out of line, looking away, or crying. Go figure.

I was thrilled to see Still Life photos on your blog. My hubby is the video guy at Still Life. Small world. Thanks for letting me stop by and say hi.

Nat Nat said...

Love that PSF. Awesome story that makes these photos oh so RAD!!! I wanted to play PSF the last 2 weeks but am off on fridays and can't seem to get to my stupid computer on my nights off. Grrrrrr... And do you think I could possible think ahead and do it early. Yea, dream on! hahahaha

Robin said...

As one youngest child to another--You go Pierce!!

Sarah said...

you used to have this pic as your banner. i loved it, but i think when i saw it you had turned off your comments. any, i LOVE this picture of your kids, with Pierce passed out in the grass. he like, "nope! not having any of this 'stand here and look pretty' business!!"
