Instagraming...

Instagram has replaced blogging in some ways... and I don't like that.

Instagram is fun in the moment! Sharing your day with all your friends... capturing cute moments just for the purpose of posting them on Instagram...

BUT...

they kinda go away... I mean i have them in my photo album on my phone, but often I don't post them to my blog because I already posted them on Instagram... and sometimes, that means I miss documenting the fun parts of our lives, that I really really should have blogged about!
(Date day at Papa's Pizza - with 6 kids! - Hey, I'll take it!)

Other times, the pictures are kinda random... they don't capture a day, or an event, or an outing... but they're still part of our days... and I kinda want to have them to look back on - in a way I won't ever look back on Instagram.

 (cutest shoes in Kindergarten!)

(he fed Lily ice cream - newest best friend!)

So bear with me.  Sometimes the pictures might be kinda random, sill, or uneventful... but a lot of days, that's what our days are... random, silly and somewhat uneventful! (:

  (Cute photo opp! Well, Koa looks cute anyway (:  the blur is Brocky)

And hey... this is my blog! If you've already seen these pictures, SORRY!! (: 
I've heard there are still a FEW people out there who don't have Instagram yet! (: (: (:

Grammi Faith is one of those neanderthal people who does not Tweet, FB, instagram, kindle/nook, iPad, iPod, etc. But I love receiving blogs. I have a flip phone that takes and receives pictures and miracle upon miracle I have learned to text. So I love pictures on your blog :>)

ooops!

I just realized that those "8 Month" pics I posted a few days ago weren't the 8 month pix.  They were more like one day shy of 7 month pictures... and THESE are the 8 month pictures! ha. o well... not much difference.  My editing was terrible in the 7 month pix - these are unedited, and probably for the best since it's not my strong suite! ha! (isn't this outfit from Nonnie ADORABLE!?) Love, love, love this one:    This is a typical face.  If he's not sucking in his lip, he's spitting and soaking his shirt with drool! (sorry so blurry - just had to remember this face!)
