Survived the Prehistoric Forest… but just barely Survived the Prehistoric Forest… but just barely! 🦖😂 These two never miss a chance to bring the chaos to family photos.

There’s nothing like watching kids grow older. T There’s nothing like watching kids grow older. They really do make you realize time is flying by. I still think Allie and I are just out of school. But here we are, ten years and two kids later. We don’t spend as much time being goofy. Jobs and children take lots of time and planning. I often wish I had a remote control to freeze time — just to hit pause. But instead, I’ll have to settle for snapshot posts on social media so that I can look back and remember the moments that pass too quickly.

The relationship I have with #msfaithrae and #mrje The relationship I have with #msfaithrae and #mrjededward is definitely different than the one they have with their mommy. Although Faith has her princess moments she sometimes still likes to roughhouse. But  she has gotten big enough to where I have to slow her down so that neither of us gets hurt. I try to encourage the brave little girl inside of her. Jed, is like a little bull. Literally. He likes to head butt me and I have to be aware of when he is close or else I’ll be in a world of hurt. So I try to get down on the ground and let him wrestle and “fight” with me. I’ve gotta figure out a way to get this kid into grappling.

Another set of photos, these of the kids with momm Another set of photos, these of the kids with mommy. It’s fun to watch little #mrjedward who is a total momma’s boy. He just loves his mommy. He is always looking for and just wants her to be around. And then there is #msfaithrae who seems to want to be mommy. It truly is something special to be able to se their bond with their mommy. I’m sure that bond grows and changes with different phases of life. And no, Jed wasn’t sleeping in the last picture. He was being his usual goofy self.

There are times where it feels like we have to pla There are times where it feels like we have to play referee to the non-stop unroyal rumble going on between #msfaithrae and #mrjededward. And then there are other times when these two act like they really do love each other. Any sibling or parent of multiple kids will recognize these swings. You just hope that at the end of it all they learn to be good friends for life. These two images were from this weekend as we took family photos at @theneutralspace_.

I was going through pictures from 2024 and it feel I was going through pictures from 2024 and it feels like the kids grew so much this year. #mrjededward is asking such deep questions that I’m often at a loss for how to answer him. First image is this weekend while we took family photos at @theneutralspace_. Second photo is January of this year when I took a picture of him while he was playing around at home.

I usually consider it Christmas season once we hav I usually consider it Christmas season once we have passed Thanksgiving. But of course, the Christmas photos need to be taken ahead of time so that they can be enjoyed during the season. So this weekend we headed over to downtown Redlands to take some pictures at @theneutralspace_. As per usual, a new season meant a new set of matching pajamas. Shooting a 3 year old is challenging whether or not the 3 year old is your own. Shooting a 3 year old and trying to get in the picture at the same time with the intervalometer was comical. But #mrjededward did well all things considered and #msfaithrae was a pro as always.

#msfaithrae turned 8 this year in August. Due to o #msfaithrae turned 8 this year in August. Due to our schedules we ended up celebrating with a staycation here at Disneyland. It was fun seeing the kids experience Disney in a different way as they are a few years older than the last time we were here. #mrjededward, at 3 years old, is a lot more interactive and even sometimes asks to take pictures at certain times.
Good to get away even for a night/day. Hot, humid, Good to get away even for a night/day. Hot, humid, and a lot of big emotions to deal with. But in the end we have to cherish the moments we get to hang out and spend together.
The family took @semperjeff out for Father’s Day The family took @semperjeff out for Father’s Day to the renaissance fair in Corona. This was the first time we have gone to one since having kids and the first one where we have tried to get dressed up.  The kids had a blast. #mrjededward surprisingly wore a costume for several hours. #msfsithrae thought her champion knight was handsome 🙄😭. Now that we (the adults) have starter pieces for the outfits I guess we ought to continue going to local festivals 🤷🏻‍♂️
