i missed flashback friday, but hey- this is my blog, i make the rules right?
so i have all this housework, and laundry, and things piled up from the holiday weekend that i was going to start today...but i didn't feel like doing anything (not to milk the pregnant thing, but it is nice that it's a good enough excuse to have not done anything all day). instead i went to the thrift store with my sister and mother in-law, played some bingo and chutes and ladders with van, and spent the good part of an hour looking at some old pictures. these two pictures of when the kids were 3 popped out at me.
it's different with van because he's still young enough to love on (like you can only do when they're a certain age), and even though i love so many things about the stage she's in now...i miss that little three year old jasmine! i love that angelic face- such a beautiful girl, and so good at taking pictures. if i said, "ok, big smile!" she would smile. if i said, "now look serious," she would do it...
van on the other hand is a different story. he doesn't like to do anything unless it's his idea. so when the photographer and i kept saying, "come on van, let's see a big smile" he just sat there with his finger on the side of his head like, "you can't make me smile, and i'm not gonna do it."we ended up getting some cute pictures with great smiles, but turns out- this was one of my favorites!
why do they have to grow up?

They are SO cute! And that's why we have more kids, because we miss it, and they are so worth it.
