I ♥ Faces: Hilarious Outtakes

This is the last week for this years challenge at I Heart Faces. Next year starts a whole new series of challenges! Can't wait! So I do have four outtakes that I am submitting! I think they are pretty hilarious! Most of them of course are of my son! Enjoy!

My first entry is of my son, Tristan, this is his new face that he always does to us! So funny.

#2. Tristan loves bath time! Especially splashing the water! I took this right before my lap got all wet! haha! Such a silly boy!

#3. This is my niece, Addison, she's such a silly girl! She always gives me the cheesiest smiles. Every once in a while I catch a nice one! :)

#4. So when Tristan was younger, well lets say around 6 months or so, he disliked anything on his head, touching his ears, etc. So this is him trying to pull his hoodie off. His expression cracks me up! Love it! :)

Head on over to and see some hilarious outtakes!! See you next year! :)

I Heart Faces: Pet week

This week's theme for I Heart Faces is Pets! I have so many pictures I would love to post of my pets but sadly I can only choose one! I had a hard time choosing one too. But this is what I came up with! This is Sparky. He is a Siberian Husky and he's 5 months old. I just love his blue eyes!

I do have several cute photos of my dappled dachshund, named Dewey, that I wanted to post, but I guess that will have to be another entry! :)

Head on over to and see more pets!

I Heart Faces: Sweet Dreams

This weeks theme for I Heart Faces is "Sweet Dreams". Such a great theme! I love it! I had a couple choices of photos to choose from of my son..but I ended up with a pretty good one. He was about 5months old when this was taken. When he couldn't walk or crawl..he loved his jumper! Oh my word..he would jump until he fell asleep...literally. Ha! So here is Tristan fast asleep in his jumper. He did this quite often too! Some people have to drive their children around the block for them to fall asleep but we just had to put him in his jumper. :)

Here is a video of him jumping like crazy..sorry it's not a very good video..I think I took it with my phone. But it is still really cute!

Head on over to for some more sleepy heads! :)
