My Favorite Summer Photo


This picture was taken one week ago today. I loved it as soon as I saw it on the little screen on my camera. T0 have Zander go from totally afraid of the water when we got to the pool...to this moment took a lot of bravery for him. I don't know if he will always stay this cautious - but for now this works for me. I look at his face in this picture and know at this moment, he is happy.




I entered this into a photo contest at 5 Minutes for Mom. Go check it out!

That pic is definitely a keeper. I love the way you've done the edges.

Can I have Zander? Just thought I'd ask.

Lori, there have been a couple of times that if you had asked me then, I might have given him to you! ;)

I think I should have Zander first because I just want to munch him! He's brilliant!

As the mom of a still caution 7 year old.. I'm good with that. The last thing I need is him driving fast cars and cliff diving.

That picture is so delicious!!!

Oh, that is about the cutest pic of Z I have seen...and he is cute in every pic! Absolutely adorable. I am trying to decide which pic to enter in the contest too...although Z's dimples might ruin my chances! ;)

happened upon this photo in the skinny cow contest. Love it! My boy is named Zane. I love the name Zander, but as our last name is Lander I didn't think that Zander Lander would ever work out for him! LOL.

He's definitely a cutie!
