Braggin' on My Boys

 The one year old is getting around so well.  He stands and moves around things easily and is F.A.S.T.

 He loves to sneak outside and play with the chalk.  See all those lines he made?  Oh yeah, when we're not watching, he likes to eat the chalk too.  :(

 He loves to be under things too - here it's the bar stool.  Not sure what it is with these things, but all the daycare kids go through this phase at about this stage.  They seem to like to be penned in, and then have a fit when they can't get back out. ;)

He likes it here because he can stand up.  He goes up and down forever under there.

 The other day, it was so hot that the three year old's horse was too hot to ride.  I saw him heading outside with blankets and had to see what he was up to.

 Pretty smart!

 (The baby likes the horse too.)

 Our eight year old is an amazing artist.  I'm not even exaggerating.  See what he did with an Etch-A-Sketch?  This was the day after watching platform diving in the Olympics.  The picture is a progression with the diver on the platform, then spinning, then entering the water.

 So much detail!  See the fingers and the hair streaking back?

 This one is a bull rider.  The timer is at the top left - he's just made 8 seconds as he's flying off, and the official and the gate opener are under the clock.
