Here's my oldest who will be 13 next month(notice I too have the "skater hair" children. He's sitting on my nephew's potty chair 
Here's my youngest who is 9. Doing what he does best. Eating!!! He has a powder donut face!
And last but not least...the lifeguard at the beach for our terrible rainy vacation!!! It was freezing. Didn't get past 65 and it rained EVERY day. We were in Long Beach Island, NJ.

Wow, do they look like brothers, or what!? What gorgeous eyes...both of them! Ahhh, the skater hair...it's growing on me. I told Tanner that if he wanted to keep it, he'd have to take care of it. Now he spends more time looking at himself in the mirror than I do. I think I've created a monster!

Handsome boys!! You will have your hands full pretty soon if not already!  Ah yes the skater hair. My fifth grade boys were into that last year and i am sure it will be the same this year. I couldn't stand some of their hair because I couldn't see their face. At least you can see your boy's face!! I am still trying to get my new pics up but I can't find my cord to hook up my digital camera so you'll have to wait! I am so sorry that your vactation was rained out. That really stinks. We had some rain at the cottage but it always cleared by the afternoon. Vegas was gorgeous of course. I'll post some more about that when I can upload my pics!

Yep that's when it started. About 5th grade. You can kinda still control their hair up to about 5th grade then they get mad at you if you make them cut it I made a deal with them that they could keep their "long" hair until pictures which are Sept. 18. Then they need their hair cut. Like Flipada said, it kinda grows on ya. Kyle the oldest has hair like me, curly. When we were at the beach it flipped up and looked really cute. Now the first day of school today it looked a mess again! Ughhh...
Can't wait to see your Vegas pics. I bet you had a good time. I'd like to see Vegas but I"m not sure I'm up for the long flight. How many hrs was it for you?
Do you guys own a cottage? Where is it? I'm so jealous. I'd love to have a cottage or beach home of our own. We were looking at the prices on the beach and most of them were a half a million to 1 million dollars to buy! Ridiculous!!!!

Do you think they look alike? Everyone says it but I think they look different. Kyle has green eyes and Ryan has blue like me. Ryan's gotten so many compliments on his eye color. They just look blue to me. Mine are more steel blue whereas his are like baby blue.
I wish Kyle would take care of his mop of a head. It's ok if he wears a hat but they don't allow hats at school so he can't wear one. He's started taking showers now in the morning (thank God). It helps his hair to look better in the mornings HOWEVER< do your boys give you a hard time about taking showers? I'm not sure what it is but I hope they grow out of it soon but they refuse to take one every day. It's gotta be every other day simply because they are too lazy. Now in the summer when they play baseball they know they have to take one every day but as it gets cooler, they say "but mom, I took one yesterday?" I just wish they'd take one every day! I've gotten Kyle to at least start washing his face at night and in the morning and randomly putting on some "Axe" deodorant (can't be any other brand).I tell him that pretty soon the girls will notice if you smell and get acne from not washing your face! Ugghhhhh boy do we have a long road a head of us from 13-18!!!!

Ha!! Same problem here with both my boys about showers. Do we hafta? Arghh.. drives me crazy. But, I can remember feeling that way myself when I was in jr. high. But as a girl...it's more work so I don't know what THEY'RE complaining about!
I told Tanner that he can keep his hair as is if he takes care of it. Whodathunk that he'd actually do it. We're forcing him tomorrow to get a "trim" just to keep it nice. Told him it grows faster that way! Logan will just need to get it cut.
And Axe...that's funny. Same stuff here! Boys!

Last summer when I was pregnant I was teaching a camp for 8-11th graders. We were all living in one dorm. The boys floor was below us and you'd think the stuff was running like a river through their hall. The smell was so strong it made me gag. Lord I hope that stuff doesn't exist by the time Ollie's a teen.
