little artists...

i was gathering up some of Jaden's drawings last nite (at any given time, u can find a few in each room of the house - he's constantly drawing & leaves them every where!) & decided 2 snap a pic of a few interesting ones...some i have an explanation 4, & some i do not

i'm pretty sure i can guess who this is ;0)

he told me about this guy - Jaden says this is his uncle from Texas & he taught him 2 play the fiddle (totally imaginary)

not sure who this guy is - but he looks pretty intense! ;0)

Jaden (the space ranger) flying

& kicking some monster's butt

this is 1 of his sisters - a space ranger as well

sleeping in a space ranger bed

he didn't finish her name (in the box she's attached 2), but i recognize this chick as "doll face" from Madagascar 2 ;0)

& this is Pumpkin-stein...he's what Jaden plans 2 b 4 Halloween this year...Halloween is 1 of Jaden's favorite holidays & he's already planning this year's costume!

not sure what this guy is getting ready 2 eat - but my guess is eyeballs ~lol~


& i couldn't share all of these wonderful drawings by Jaden, without also including some artwork done by my girls!

Gabby did these in school, while studying different emotions...b still my heart!

this is me lying in the hospital - she said she crawled in2 the bed with me...& look at the lil "mom, i ♥ u" beside us ~sob~

this shows off Corinn's spelling, more than her artistry...she's an excellent artist too, but i was really impressed with her attempt 2 spell these words!


i hope that by taking pics of my kiddos' artwork, i'm able 2 throw more away...i hate having 2 do that, but i can only keep so many originals - u know?

Yup I do that with photos too, I'm not sentimental about hardcopy. It sounds like the kiddos are going to want their own websites soon if you keep digitizing all the hardcopy though ;) hehehe

He is quite the artist:) I am constantly picking up Wes' drawings. His normally are Star Wars battles, lol! I was thinking of taking pics of them and making a photo book on Snapfish or something.

Okay...Gabby...that is the sweetest! GAH!! *sniff*

Mama Skates said...

yes, i LOVE the snapfish photo books - i made 1 this year & not only ordered it 4 myself, but also got copies 4 the grandparents...they turn out sooo good! doing those with the kiddos' artwork is a great idea too - jaden would probably look at his 4 hours! ;0)

I love them! What talent you all have in the Skates household!

La Familia Garcia said...

aaahh..what great ideas you guys have!
I love Jaden's picture of sleeping in a space ranger bed
and Gabby's "I love you"
so sweet!

Shutterfly makes a mean photo book too!

I'm always blown away by how naturally gifted Jayden is! I feel like I'm sitting at the feet of a master artist! Some day he'll totally be famous. And you must promise to remember that you knew lil' ol' me! *wink*

I love how his pics are all mosters & battles...and Gabby's are all emotions! How cute is the boy-girl factor?!

I used to throw EVERYTHING away. And somewhere over the past eight years of parenting...I've suddenly developed a soft art spot!

Where to begin... they're all so good. I think my favorite is the shark chasing the dragon though.

Those are awesome drawings that your son made. Yay I know what you mean about being able to keep only so many originals, picture are perfect!

Kristin said...

Your son is quite the little artist! I really like his action figures!

Childlife said...

Quite the talented kiddos you have there! I loved the little hands sticking out over the covers in the space ranger bed :D

And my heart's in a little puddle on the floor over your daughter's drawings -- I especially loved her Easter basket and how she spelled "BTRFLI" --- SOOOOOOO cute!

Glad you joined in with MMM this week!
