Wink

What no pictures...must be because he screamed the whole time and they ZERO shots of him...great huh?!

But, in order to be fair...here's a recent shot...I call this one 'Toddler Wonder'...because of the look in his eyes...thanks for indulging me...

Karen,

She is just stunning!! Alex is adorable also. Love his expression. He looks like he is all boy. I guess that is what I have to look forward to.

Thanks.

Karen - your kids are just beautful! Your Ariana is gorgeous -- better have DH bone up on the karate to keep the boys away from that one! Alek is so cute -- what a great look!

What beautiful pictures! Your children are absolutely gorgeous. And I simply love the expression in Alex's eyes -- it truly does capture the idea of "toddler wonder!" Thanks for sharing -- they are precious. You SHOULD be proud -- too, too adorable.

What BEAUTIFUL children you have no matter how they do (or do not) pose. I have BTDT with the kid who won't sit still for his photo. At four he loves to pose for us. Check him out in the 'fall pics' thread

Thanks for sharing...
