Subscribe to Our Feed!I’ve been absent from the You Capture challenges for awhile, having been caught up in life (and death). When I saw that this week’s challenge was faces, I thought I’d take advantage of the opportunity to get some new face collages of my kids. BigBrother is a Face Making King. LittleBrother is just learning what faces go with what emotions. They both enjoyed a bit of time in front of the camera.
BigBrother made five really good faces: left top, sad; left bottom, angry; center, happy; right top, silly; right bottom, surprised.
Then I asked him to make his favorite face and he ended up with this gem:
Next came LittleBrother’s turn. He was distracted by BigBrother and FireDad. Plus his attention span is a bit shorter, being only two, but he came up with three great faces: left, happy; right top, sad; right bottom, surprised.
And then he melted down which is a perfect sad face all of its own.
I enjoyed this challenge and I think the boys did, too. You know, until LittleBrother melted. Life is hard when you’re two.
Next week’s challenge is work. I’m not sure how to approach this one as I work six different jobs (five freelancing, one out-of-home) and, you know, care for these two wild and crazy guys all day long. I think it will be an interesting challenge and I hope to put a little bit of thought and time into it. I’ll be interested to see what everyone else comes up with as well. Until then, check out everyone else’s face pictures today.

My 3 yr old boy saw the picture of your boy’s silly face and so now he’s making it, too. We call it “funny face”.

Would you think I was a terrible person if I said that LittleBrother’s melt down face made me smile? Only because he is super cute. Those are all really great shots. And gorgeous models.

Gotta be honest: it makes me smile, too. He’s just so sweet, such a lover. It’s kind of funny to watch him be a typical two year old from time to time.
These are brilliant! Such adorable little boys! I can’t pick a favorite picture, they are all so good!

So cute! Life really IS hard when you’re two. According to my son, it’s even harder when you’re three.
Those are some adorable faces!
