Just a few iPhone photos

Hello, this is Chad again. I have been taking pictures from my iPhone lately since it's so dang easy to have them upload straight to Flickr (thanks to an app called AirMe) so I figured I'd share some of them. Rachel has already posted a few so I won't post those ones again, but I've enjoyed having these on my phone so now you can enjoy them too!
From a little while back, this was the staple in his head after he hit it on the bar. He was such a trooper through the whole thing and now it's just a little scar where hair won't grow!
It's hard to see what's interesting about this but right in the middle of the photo you can see a red fire truck. On that red fire truck is Micah. Who has pushed himself off the grass, into the dirt, and behind a tree. And he was just sitting there. I have no idea what prompted that but I did a double-take when I realized what I was looking at, such a goofy kid sometimes.

Much like myself and Rachel, Brooklyn isn't very photogenic but this is my favorite picture of her because it's the only one I've seen that manages to actually capture how I see her in real life. She's always smiling, she has such beautiful hair and cheeks and there's just something in her eyes.

One day I came home from work expecting the usual madhouse but, instead, this is what greeted me. Both kids passed out on the floor looking like they'd just flopped to the ground from where they stood. As nice as it was to have some peace and quiet, I quickly missed Brooklyn's smiles and Micah's constant pleads for attention. Times like that make you realize what you've got.

I don't really know what to say about this one. I was standing there watching TV as Micah was tearing apart the couch cushions as he sometimes does. Not a big deal since they're easy to put back in place. He suddenly got quiet and when I looked over at him, he'd once again decided to be his goofy self and see what it was like to have the cushion be on top for a change. And that's Micah.

Heidi and Bailey taking a look at Brooklyn. Just thought this was adorable.

I recently found my old Nintendo in the attic and decided to plug it into a spare TV we had. It took a lot of unscrewing and a bunch of cleaning but it finally started working. Here is Micah making Mega Man jump in place (which he got bored of soon after this photo was taken). I walked away to do something and when I came back, he had messed around with the Nintendo and it was making a beep and giving an error. He looked at me and went "I died!"

So that's all for now, I'll probably be back in a couple more months with some more photos.

I like the random photos update! My favorite is both kids asleep on the floor...how often does that happen? I guess not very often if you had to take a picture. Very cute. I hope you get your old nintendo working again soon.

Fun post, Chad. Loved the pictures, especially the one with Micah on his fire truck in the bushes. He is so spontaneous; I love it! My kids are exhausting and hilarious - Rachel probably feels the same way about Micah and Brooklyn.
