So, for your viewing enjoyment, here are just a few of many, many attempts to get a decent picture of him at the park on Friday.
After only a few seconds, we realized the "all 4 kids together" shot was not happening that day.
But, to give him some props for good behavior, we did get a couple of OK pics on the bridge. Of course, my bright idea to get him with the pond in the background was destroyed when we saw that someone had decided to drain all the ponds, leaving him standing on a bridge over a bunch of dirt and dead fish.
While at the park, a couple of very nice older gentlemen let the kiddos play with and feed their dogs. It took Malachi a while to grasp the fact that the dog treats were for the dogs and not for him, but after downing a few of them, he finally got it.
Last but not least: a sign we pass often on our way home from Richmond. If you ever find yourself in need of both cheese and fabric, this is the place for you!

I love the pictures, some of the best pictures of kids are when you can capture their personality. And, I also am amazed at how truly different children can be, even though they have the same parents.
i think i understand why malachi didn't mind the dog treats. after eating tofu burgers and tofu pancakes, does anything taste bad? :p
Dee, if I served you tofu pancakes and you did NOT know that was an ingredient, you would really like them! No joke!
one of our kids would not smile for the camera (I'll let you guess which one). we finally decided the best pictures were taken when we stopped trying so hard and he/she could just be who they are. i think all the pictures of Zeke are cute.
Dee - we've never served the kids tofu burgers. Eww!
Janal & Margaret - Zekers is just so sweet and not usually such a grumper; I want to capture his personality but he just doesn't smile on command. I'm thinking we just need to use the "sneak attack" approach next time!
Zeke marches to his own drummer - and a song deep, deep in his head !! :0) That's why we love him so much.
