Mommy and Me Monday-The 5th Edition
Thank you for joining me on this new endeavor, Mommy and Me Monday. I can’t wait to see you all out from behind the camera and in front of the lens. It will be good for us all to be added to the documentation of our lives (as well as the lives of our children). Read a description of Mommy and Me Monday for more information.
Saturday afternoon, I was finally feeling myself. This past week was really hard and it took a toll on my body. But, Saturday, I was back.
After the girls had a good nap, we went out for free Italian Ices. Yum. We all had our own, and the girls loved it.
Then, we went to run around at a local memorial and park: A big, open, grassy field (and we later discovered a little play train area, too).
As we were leaving, I handed Mr. Serious the camera and said “I need to get a picture for this week. I don’t have one.”
I scooped up the girls and told them to smile. Neither one of them looked at the camera, and while there were a couple where I was looking good, I think this one really captured the moment.
They both were touching each other and swatting at each other. And, of course, thought they were hilarious. And, I turned to laugh at #2, and Mr. Serious snapped one more time. And, viola, this is it.
I’m taking a little creative license here and sharing a couple others from this trip, too because they were too good to pass up. (Feel free to click to enlarge).
What did you do this week?
GET IN THE PICTURE WITH YOUR KIDS! Who cares what you look like? Who cares how you appear? Who cares what you are wearing? JUST DO IT! Come share your picture on the Facebook thread or use #MommyAndMeMonday!
It’s time again for Mommy and Me Monday. Pop out from behind that camera and capture yourself in action with your kids. Check out the inaugural Mommy and Me Monday for more information.

I seriously love your little girls hair! Darling! I'm totally going to join in this week! I slacked last week, but I'm ready to commit. I need more pics with my baby girl. So do most people do a post on Mondays? Or just whenever during the week?
This is just an adorable picture. I LOVE it!
OMG I totally grinned so hard my cheeks hurt. This is the most SUPER doopa face of you and the girls. Really shows of the "ham" side of you all!
Adorable picture!
I give you props, because I -hate- uploading pics where Sophia looks amazing and cute and mommy looks like hell. I'm too vain. Haha.

Glad that you are feeling like yourself – and what a nice trip with the whole family… I love free things 😉

What a great photo of you and your girls. You all look like you are having so much fun! I love the other two photos also, and since you are the creator of this meme, you are allowed to show whatever photos you choose!
Hope you have a great week!
Love it! What wonderful smiles!
So cute! I miss them so much! Nobody was yelling for 'gogurrrrr' Sunday morning.
So Cute! I can't believe I forgot Mommy and Me AGAIN!!!
Love love LOVE your photo!
Really captured the moment. I really like the photo of the three of you. Those smiles and that moment is definitely priceless. You'll look back at that photo ten years from now and it will remind you one of the happiest moment you had with your charming daughters. It will remind you how fun it is to be a mother.
Krystyn-your picture? Seriously should be framed. Best.picture.ever.
And I promise to have one for next week. Pinky promise 🙂

Thanks for the tip about the comments and disqus…I'm still deciding on it, but I did fix my comments (and changed the link to my mommy and me post if you want to delete my first one…)
Also….are you in GA? We are and we also went out saturday for free frozen ices from Rita's?! 🙂
Love the photo.
Mmm, I love Italian ice.
Very cute! You certainly make your little girls happy.
I really should start participating in this so that I have more pictures of myself. I love looking at what you guys come up with every week – so precious!
Loving the laughing smiling moment! 🙂 So glad you captured it!
