Does your daughter sometimes just look at these boys in disbelief? Boys, and men, baffle me sometimes. Why, oh why, is it fun to beat one another up?
June 27th, 2007 at 2:56 pmFantastic pictures!
June 27th, 2007 at 3:09 pmMan, I love boys. I don’t mean that in a sick way. They just look like little, tiny men with their skinny little bodies. Boys are very physical in the way they play, it really does help explain why grown men are the way they are.
The best part of this whole picture for me is the “what are my crazy brothers doing now?” look on your daughter’s face behind them, and the fact that it looks like she’s got her hand on her hip.
Great summer-y pics!!!
June 27th, 2007 at 4:22 pmBoys. Ah, boys. Gotta love ‘em. Your girl will be able to keep up with the best of them and stay away from the worst of them.
June 27th, 2007 at 5:41 pmI just looked at your photoset.
I wanna be a kid at your house.
It looks like so much fun!
Loved it,

I LOVE being the mom of a boy! This photo captures all it means to be a boy in the summer! Camo’s, water, and physical contact, and a huge smile (there is one there hidden under the contact of the arm). haha!

Mamalady brought up a good question… what does your daughter think? Surely she’s got to be a tomboy around all those boys!
How funny … just the other night my 2 boys were playing with the hose - more fun to them than swimming sometimes! Only difference was *I* was head hauncho with the hose ; )
Great pictures as always!
June 28th, 2007 at 8:27 amWhen my girlfriends and I take a bunch of kids to the beach house, the difference between boys and girls becomes most obvious when they are asleep. The girls choose to sleep on single beds or next to one another. Very neat and regular. The boys fit as many as possible in a king-sized bed, and wrestle till they fall asleep in a heap… Just like puppies! We have some beautiful pictures of 8 to 10 little boys asleep in a heap, and when you look at them and realise the love they have for one another you want to pickle them so they will stop growing up! Of course, when they are awake its another story!
June 28th, 2007 at 8:55 ami just love boys. i have two boys and a girl in between. she’s one part super girly and one part tom boy. when she was three, she fell off of the monkey bars. she got up, dusted her butt off, FLUFFED her hair, and climbed back up. the other moms and i were dying.
June 28th, 2007 at 4:37 pmoh, i know your pain. i never knew cooking was a contact sport before i had 4 boys. and my chiropractor wonders why my children always come in with hips and necks out of whack - it’s the wrestling!
June 28th, 2007 at 5:58 pmLOL Aren’t boys grand? Who knew that EVERY.SINGLE.THING was made better by wrestling.
