This happens at least twice everytime we go somewhere like that, but especially when we leave.

Thanks for sharing these photos. We love seeing your cute kiddos.

Love and Prayers,

Tim

Nothing better than the park to wear down those kiddos. I have to say, the crying pics are my favorite. You can just see how her mother is so unfair… and probably beats her. :)

I was stopping by to say thanks for following my blog.

Oh the playground…I remember it. Snacks are alwasy the most important part. And falling asleep for a nap on the way home.

4 Casey's trio March 1, 2009 at 8:50 am

She’s gonna love you for those pictures about 10 years from now–HA!

5 Rhea March 1, 2009 at 9:12 am

Uh, oh, looks like some drama…

Cute photos!! Even the tears.

6 Jenni Jiggety March 1, 2009 at 9:13 am

Oh, if nobody cries that means I am not being nearly mean enough…

Love the pictures! Way to go on the tears!

7 Ronda's Rants March 1, 2009 at 9:39 am

It looks just like me yesterday! :)

8 Nicole March 1, 2009 at 10:20 am

That looks familiar!
Thats about how our trips to the park end up!

9 T Rex Mom March 1, 2009 at 10:24 am

Great photos – crying is a must for a successful visit to the park – even if it’s just crying because it’s time to go.

10 Jen March 1, 2009 at 10:40 am

Well. come times you just need to cry.

But great photos!!!!!

11 noble pig March 1, 2009 at 10:45 am

And that is why I loathe the park.

12 Jennifer March 1, 2009 at 11:42 am

Your kids are so cute! Agh!

Your kiddo looks like me when my husband tells me I need to put a kabash on my third piece of chocolate cake…

13 Cristin March 1, 2009 at 11:50 am

I’d so love to be outside with the kids… but we’re having a blizzard…. great shots.

14 mama March 1, 2009 at 12:23 pm

she just misses us…
cute coat!

15 Christy March 1, 2009 at 2:23 pm

They are so adorable – and you are a really great photographer. I want your daughter’s coat for myself. Gorgeous!

16 Shannon March 1, 2009 at 5:20 pm

Even having a meltdown, that Lily is a cutie!

And I love her coat!

17 Cookie Crums March 1, 2009 at 5:27 pm

Cute pics!

Love “everyday” pictures b/c that’s what life is all about.

Of course…. gotta throw in a few tears!

18 Robin March 1, 2009 at 5:33 pm

I love this montage. The photos are so sweet!

19 blueviolet March 1, 2009 at 6:17 pm

A few bumps and bruises are pretty much par for the course. What can you do?

20 Scary Mommy March 1, 2009 at 7:05 pm

I was just the worst mother EVER for not pushing her non-stop on the tire swing. You know, because the other two kids didn’t need me at all or anything. Oh, how I suck.

(And Jeff found the coat at Marshall’s for seven bucks! It helped make up for those stupid earrings. A little.) :)

21 Blissful Babe March 1, 2009 at 7:39 pm

That is so freakin’ fabulous. Your kids are going to just *love* you so much when they get older and see that you have posted these crying pictures on the world wide web.

Oh so great. :D

22 Vodka Mom March 2, 2009 at 4:52 am

I NEVER thought I’d say it- but I DO miss those days!!!

And the tears??? They do that for a long DAMN time.

23 DCUrbanDad March 2, 2009 at 5:01 am

Makes me wanna quit work right now. F spreadsheets man. I wanna swing.

Enjoying the snow?

24 Brittany March 2, 2009 at 8:04 am

So cute!

And we never leave the park with out screams, tears and dirt throwing. YAY!

25 Rachel March 2, 2009 at 8:38 am

You mean it’s possible for there to be an outing without drama? I don’t believe you.

26 Sus March 2, 2009 at 9:13 am

EVERY. Time. I try to do something fun for the children, it backfires at some point. You just have to laugh, right? My son is so prone to teary breakdowns that I think I’m scarring him by laughing in his face when the lower lip starts to tremble. :)

27 Dawn March 2, 2009 at 9:31 am

what a difference in pics; happy then downright deathly sad! oh I’m sure she’ll hate you for posting these when she’s like 16. love how she throws her head in a tantrum, those never worked on my parents. lol

28 Susan March 2, 2009 at 9:47 am

Yes. Tears. SO familiar.

29 Threeundertwo March 2, 2009 at 11:30 am

So stinkin adorable!!!

30 Mags March 2, 2009 at 12:17 pm

Great pics…your kids are adorable!!!

It’s a given that at least one child will have some sort of meltdown whenever we’re out doing something FUN.

31 Complicated Mama March 2, 2009 at 7:25 pm

As always love the pics. The one of your daughter crying reminded me of Veruca Salt from Willy Wonka for a minute. :) Priceless :)

32 Life with Kaishon March 2, 2009 at 8:04 pm

I love her coat. Oh my goodness gracious. How cute is she?

33 Debbie March 2, 2009 at 8:36 pm

I have both cried at the park and just felt like it!

34 Michelle March 2, 2009 at 9:36 pm

I can’t imagine how exhausting the day would be if I cried or fell as often as a child does. :)

Cute pictures!

35 Texan Mama @ Who Put Me In Charge March 2, 2009 at 10:22 pm

I love that Lily let you take her picture while she was in tears. Or, maybe she didn’t so much LET you as much as she didn’t have a choice. Ame I close?

36 Maggie May March 3, 2009 at 12:02 am

a complete capture of all the emotions of an adult’s week in about two seconds of a kids life!

37 Tiaras and Tantrums March 3, 2009 at 10:03 am

ha ha – Love the drama!

38 natalie March 3, 2009 at 10:22 am

Haha I can say we’ve never been to the park without at least one breakdown.

39 Suburban Turmoil March 3, 2009 at 7:49 pm

Awesome pictures! Too cute. :)

40 Lizzie March 4, 2009 at 5:28 pm
