This year’s Ultimate Blog Party is brought to you by:
Mom Bloggers (and Dad Bloggers too!) post a photo on your site, link up and find others… Wordless Wednesday is tons of fun. (And I know it says “wordless” but I just can’t bear to not write anything! If I had created it, I probably would have named it something different! LOL So feel to link up your word-full or word-less Wednesday photos!)
Leave the URL to your photo (clearly mine are never truly “wordless”) and then visit others!
Did you know that the beautiful new Cottonelle roll covers by Jonathan Adler can be used for more than just a toilet paper roll cover? The fashion consultant, Vivian St. Claire says “First and foremost, of course, they should be used to respect the care-worthy rolls of Cottonelle Clean Care Toilet Paper,”. But if you have multiples of a design, there are a few ways to use them to spruce up other areas of your home.
Here is a fun thumbnail linky:
And here is a basic linky if you prefer your linkies the good old fashioned way!
Thanks to Uisce for creating Wordless Wednesday.

oh poor Jackson!! lol gotta love the pre-teen angst
He does look handsome in his shirt & tie though 
That is an awesome photo! Look out, I think you have a young man in your life!

Great photo! The girls will be after him in a couple of years!
I think that is a great picture. I know tween boys hate to smile, but that is a classic picture and he looks so handsome!!
I see your tween and raise you any of my three teenagers (Boy, 17; Girl, 15; Boy, 13).
Yes, three teenagers in the house. It’s such a blessing!
What? Me, crying? Oh, no, it must be an eyelash in my eye…
What a great photo of him! He looks very trendy in his tie!!!
It all starts entirely too early! *sigh* He still looks pretty spiffy dressed up though.
What a gorgeous photo of your son! I have 14yr old and an 11yr old so I understand your plight!
That is an EXCELLENT shot. I love it when you can capture exactly who they are at the age they are. Much better than a smiling posed picture for sure!!
Yes, I can TOTALLY relate with my 10yo dd!!
Awwww….bless. My 10 yo is already acting like that. So NOT looking forward to that age. lol
This is a really nice shot, I agree, and at least his new clothes look great!
I do believe that my oldest is starting to feel this way. He does not want to get in photos as much and definitely shows his thoughts.
As a mom of a 21-year-old, I got news for you…you got at least a decade of that ahead of you:-(
Do I ever! My eldest is 12. He turns on a dime from the Loveliest Boy in The World, full of “I love you Mom”s to vile, deranged and impossible.
Help us through this phase, please!
I think that’s a great shot! My oldest will be 10 in 10 days. He’s already exhibiting the same behavior. So cool to watch the grow up, but so bittersweet.
Great shot! Even if he isn’t overly happy.
Ditto! I love this shot ~ And luckily, PreTeen years don’t last long!
Happy WW!
I can only imagine the photos we’ll have to fight for when our daughter is older! Thanks for hosting!
This is a fantastic shot! I love his outfit, pose and his expression.
He may be angsty, but he sure is handsome!
Ah tween angst. He looks gorgeous anyways and will be a heartbreaker. I live your picture. My dd 10 has been a three headed monster for about four months now. I wrote about it a lot this week.

No tween yet, god help me
I don’t have a tween yet but my boys know how to pick the best moments to have the worst attitudes.
I really like the picture of Jackson. Sometimes pictures are much better without a smile.
Well of course, he has angst….he is your kid, Janice…:)
No tweens here! My oldest is 6 and I am SO not ready for that yet…. although I don’t know if I ever will be!
No preteens over in my home – yet. And I’m sooo grateful for it!
I love that he wanted a tie. That plus the angst, make it perfect.
Oh, my! He is so handsome! Nope, no pre-teens in our home yet. A preschooler and a 6yo.
Oh my gosh, Janice! He looks so grown up there! That really is a great shot. I have one JUST like it with my oldest daughter. She was being SO difficult several years ago, and then she glared at me and I caught the best picture ever. It looks like she’s trying to be sexy, but she’s really just thinking, “Hey, Mom, will you lay off!!” lol
Here’s my pic of a moody tween (circa 2008): http://betterinbulk.net/2008/05/in-case-you-havent-heard-already.html (who is now a moody TEEN!)
Hello I am a college working on a team project and need input from parents through a survey we are conducting. We are creating a new product and we are targeting parents as primary customers. If you could fill out our survey it would be extremely helpful.

Your tween is growing and he is cute. We can’t stop them to grow and soon they will go away from us. By the way, your son is handsome. Love it.
I do not look forward to those days xD But I’ll have but only one thing to say to my son what it does happen…
“get over it!”
I don’t have a preteen in my house, but I teach 40 of them! They are soooo fun!
