Allow Me If You Will

I’m so in love with my camera family, that I just have to post some pictures for you. Do you mind?
These were taken at a recent day at the Lincoln Park Zoo, which is like the best place ever. I wish I lived next door.
We all had a big family outing because this guy was in town:
He thinks he’s cool because he’s almost 21. He’ll always be the baby.
This girl is going to have to be locked in her room until she’s 25. She’s my niece-ling, and first granddaughter.
She came from these two totally average looking people:
She has a special bond with this guy, my middle child, pre-scissor attack (he put his hat on her and then they both posed).
Then we have this guy, my baby, who is not at all photogenic.
He is really good at smiling his way out of any predicament. Just like his Dad.
Then we have my oldest, who is near impossible to get smiling, especially a natural smile. He hates photos, but somehow we caught this pic of him smiling. This face doesn’t happen very often, so we swoon over it something fierce. The fact that it seems like he’s looking me in the eye, something which is also rare, gives me butterflies. I could look at this photo all day…
What a day.

I miss the Lincoln Park Zoo! I used to live right down the street from it. Heck, I miss all of Chicago!
Great photos, too.
You have some gorgeous genes going on in your family tree! Beautiful eyes, beautiful smiles, every one of them. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, beautiful pics!
That “in love with my…family” was great. Good looking family. Lots of great shots. I really like the 4th one up.
That picture of Capri is GORGEOUS. I bet she’s not spoiled at all, you know, being the first granddaughter and all:) Your boys all have the best eyes…all of them!
These are all the best pics!

Gorrrrrrrrgeous pics! Thank you for sharing your beautiful family
Great pictures! I especially love that last one, beautiful smile!
These pictures are perfect! You’re good girl!
Adorable!!!
And please forgive me for this inappropriate use of your comment section…Alli (fussypants) suggested I contact you, and you don’t follow me on twitter, silly;).
I am the Healthy Living Channel Editor for the BD relaunch…I would LOVE it if you’d consider contributing. I really REALLY want the Parenting a Child with Special Needs to be an important part of my channel, particularly how it relates to nutrition, doctor-patient interaction, alternative medicine, that type of thing.
I will have a forum (on site, not a ning group) dedicated to this…I would love to talk to you about this. You could participate as much (or as little) as you like…email me if you’re interested. Even if you’re not, I’d love to chat with you about this subject.

You know what’s crazy? I actually DID live next door to the Lincoln Park Zoo 10 years ago. (Okay, not next door, but a few blocks away). I loved it. Was there all the time.
Beautiful pictures and beautiful family.
May I ask what kind of camera you use? I’m in the market for on.
These are REALLY great pictures! I’ve given you a little bloggy love today!
Hey, I love me a picture post from time to time. I never feel like my readers do but maybe it’s all in my head LOL
Great pictures! Such a beautiful family.
Oh, I love that Zoo! I could go every week and never get tired of going. These are great pictures, but where are you???? Beautiful family day!
