boys are beyond the range of anybody's sure understanding, at least when they are between the ages of 18 months and 90 years. ~ james thurber

oh dear, rubin. if you'd like one like your mama's, i can find one for you. hope he got his head out =-)
LOVE. THAT. BAG.
And the boy in it is pretty cute as well...
Hee hee. I'm always amazed at how much boys love putting things on their head. My oldest nephew used to love to walk around with a bucket on his head.
Love the bag!
Ah ha haaa! I love the hardcore emotion of the last shot. But what I love more? That you took a photo of it before consoling him.
The mark of a true blogger.
The bib says it all...
Hee, hee. Poor kid.
P.S. It's decided. I'm running Chicago.
Sometimes we just have to learn things the HARD way, don't we? Oh dear. Sorry little Rubin. I'm sure your Omma removed the bag from your head as soon as the photo shoot was complete. LOVE it!
My two favorite things in the world - cute bags and cute boys!
poor rubin. just hold on one second little buddy. mama needs to get a picture!
i do believe that before you became a camera junky I positively annoyed you to pieces with my own obsessive photo-taking.
now you know. :)
Awww...poor Rubin. I love the bib!
Poor Rubes!
every day he becomes more prepared for his career in roller derby...
I wish that was what I had gotten my mellon stuck in rather than between the bars to calf pen. I am stuck and can't pull my head out while the calves were licking my face. Pure mental trauma. No physical rescue from the parental units, just verbal advise, "stop screwing around with the calves and get back to work". just might have something to do with my mental status today :)

lesson learned I hope!
awww, rubin, you are so cute whatever you are doing!
love that you took a picture of this!
Hi Emily,
I just found your blog thru the comment you wrote on mine. ( thank you, by the way! :)
I should be sleeping right now, but started to read some of your older posts and I could just read and read all night. I love the photos ( your kids are adorable ) and your honesty about how hard motherhood can be. I look forward to reading more and following your journey. :)
