The Kids are Alright

'Tis a relief to be on this end of a puke-fest holiday weekend.  It just doesn't work for the mom to be MIA.
Thankfully Mr Renn is a perfectly capable parent, and didn't miss a beat taking the helm and being more productive than I ever am.
We made headway with packing, which will seem more exciting when I have a setting to envision unpacking in....a.k.a. a house to live in.
And the boys were most excellent versions of themselves this weekend.  Our Captain especially was a bundle of cheerful obedience.  But even better than the obedience was having two little men genuinely revel in each other's company.  Makes all this trickery of having children in rapid succession seem pretty darn worth it.

And while the short people are never quite as delightfully behaved once Dad returns to work and real-life settles back in, I still think they are the bee's knees.

@Brittany - most of these were at Red Butte Garden

if my comments ever stop appearing on your blog, it's because i've left in irritation that your photography is better than mine.

keep it up. your love of those boys shows through the lens.

@Jeff.
I still have so much to learn. And then I have to learn how to do what I've learned and do it quickly. But you are nice.

The brother shots are so sweet. I love seeing them love each other. It gives me hope for my littles.

Love the pictures of the boys! (I may or may not be coveting your camera and lens right now ;) And I love it when my kids are best buds - clarification, when my daughter and her brothers play well together. The boys have yet to catch on to brotherly bonding.
