The many faces of Eden

Our family Dr has become somewhat concerned that Eden only says about three words. Ouchy, ya and NO! But if you think about it what do you think my little girl might say if she really wanted to. I'm not all that sure I want to find out right now. My beautiful little girl has more spunk than any child I have every met. I think she would tell you what she is really thinking even if it might hurt your feelings. She would also tell you how much she loves you and that she wants to be held but only at certain points in the day. She always insists on a bow of some kind in her hair for the soul purpose of ripping it out in a dramatic gesture and then bringing it over to you and with equally dramatic gesture demanding that you must put it back in. Now she dose not need words to tell me these things. She like her oldest brother are on their own schedule and nobody can rush that schedule the sooner everyone learns that the happier we all will be.
 Eden loves to make messes
painting her food all over her face is one of her favorite games.

 She does not like to have the camera pointed in her direction and this is the face she gives for most of the pictures I have of her.
 Careful she'll stare you down

 Getting dirty is sooooo much fun especially when she took her purse with her with the soul purpose of filling it up with dirt and bringing the contraband into her mommy's freshly cleaned house.

She has such a big personality no wonder she gets frustrated in her little two year old body 
As she gets older her personality I hope grows with her.

Kjar Kids 2013 Pictures

When Josh was just a baby about six months old a friend told me that she would get updated professional pictures of her boys every year now it helped that she was a photographer but I felt that it was so true my kids change every year. So I have had pictures taken of my kids pretty much every year since. Now I'm very blessed to have a very talented friend who takes the pictures for me and she does such a fantastic job . Our pictures this year are by far the best we have had. You know the photographer is good when your two year old  who refuses to smile and behave and she still gets a cute picture out of her. 


 A quick funny story about Josh. During the shoot my friend was trying to get Josh to pose in a specific way and he just wouldn't do it finally Josh says I'm just not feeling that. My friend looked at him and said well how are you feeling it? He responded with like this and then poses in a more casual way. That ended up being my favorite picture of him. Sitting on a rock in his own way, being himself.



 Eric was fun he just tried to mimic everything that Josh did and then ended up getting tired of taking pictures.

 Eden was being difficult the entire time. She refused to look at the camera and smile at the same time I have no idea how we got so lucky as to have gotten this picture. At the end of the shoot Eden decided that it would be a good idea to run into the sprinklers. Thus that ended the shoot but she seemed to have fun when she was with her brothers.


 Such a pretty girl
I wonder what she was thinking?





I love these crazy kids they are so beautiful because they are children of our Heavenly Father's
and they are loved so fully by a mom and dad and grandparents and aunts and uncles, friends and so on.
