St. Patrick's Day 2012

St. Louis celebrates St. Patrick's Day in a big BIG way. We usually head downtown to the parade, but after fighting the crowds with 2 kids last year, and the fact that the 17th was actually on a Saturday which upped the anty on raucous behavior, we decided to hang out round our parts. The Zoo had plenty of green and was much more kid friendly. Well. It was at least until the Dogtown parade let out.

I wanted to get a picture of Lila like this one from last year...

But an odd thing happened this year, she can not only move, she can walk, talk and pretty much do what she pleases while you are trying to take a picture.



I think she still looks pretty cute anyway. And that hair! How does that happen in a year!

These boys had their own fair share of cuteness. Do they look like they are yelling?

There's a reason for that.
 They are. I thought this picture was extra cute of Gavin.

Enter Lila and begin the quest for the perfect picture. Not happenin. But at least all the Boyle-Odom grandchildren are there and not hitting or spitting at each other. Yet.

My 2 St. Patrick's Day hooligans. Lila just LOVES to be held by Nate.

Not.
