The good, the bad and the ugly...OK, just the bad and the ugly

I've become aware that I tend to mainly take pictures of my kids when they're looking cute and clean. Fact is though, we have many a messy moment around here. Messy food, snotty noses, stained clothes, bedhead hair, tantrums and fits...you get the idea. So recently I made a point of snapping a few photos of our not so beautiful moments...

Why is it that my kid's favorite food also happens to be one of the messiest?? But, since I count marinara sauce as a much needed veggie, I have to bite the bullet. So my question is...do kids love spaghetti because it's yummy or do they just love to make a mess?!
Maggie got a hold of one of Mia's uncapped markers-- oops! ;) Thank God those markers are non-toxic...seriously!
Mia had a nasty fall on the sidewalk the other day and scraped up her chin and lip...gotta love the war wounds from childs play. :)

AWE!!! I love the pics Ana!! :)
The girls are still adorable, even when they're messy or marked! I love the spaghetti pic!! You're braver than I! I try to avoid marinara sauce at all costs!! :)

You make a very good point!! Later on, I'm sure we'll find the messy, marked, 'kids being kids' photos so much more funny and interesting than the perfect posed ones!?! :) I'm going to make a point to take more 'real life' shots too!! Thanks for the reminder!
