Almost All My Mothers' Days

We try and take a special Mothers' Day portrait of me and the kids every year.  It's getting more difficult to catch a GOOD picture the more kids we have and the bigger they get: there's always someone blinking, crying, or picking his/her nose.  But here's the best we have!  First one's from 2007 and taken in our backyard in Lathrop, CA; Jack was almost six months old.


Not sure where our 2008 pictures are!  We have them on a backup CD somewhere.  But the next pic is from 2009, in Mammoth Lakes, CA, when I was VERY pregnant with Kate.


2010, when we were living with my parents in Lewiston, ID, for two months:


2011, in Las Cruces.  Again, VERY pregnant, but with Maggie this time:


And, finally, 2012's picture, in Las Cruces.  Taken in a hurry because we had people coming for dinner.  And it was hot and bright and... well, we were a bunch of complainers.  But just look at this gorgeous bunch of children!  I really have no reason to complain.
