So good to see those guys again!
As I've probably mentioned before, Ava is the shortest in her year by some way. Here she is with her best pal Eve today:

With our local park thronged with hundreds for the Crystal Palace Overground Festival, we found a quiet spot behind a pal's craft stall for our blanket; Lulu perfecting her thousand-yard bagel stare:

Not my kids, but I've been scanning some of my mom's negatives, and here's one of me and my brother:

haha. we should have a thread where we put kid photos of ourselves next to photos of our kids at the same age

That is a good idea. I think my girls' early years are approx 2000x more thoroughly documented than mine were though - it's slim pickings.
― Michael Jones, Friday, 19 July 2013 06:59 (ten years ago) link
yeah. same. i have maybe 3 or 4 photos of me under 12.
― educate yourself to this reality (sunny successor), Friday, 19 July 2013 13:44 (ten years ago) link
My mom was a ridiculous photographer. When she died, I inherited like 50,000 or more negatives, slides, and prints. I'm working my way through the negatives and slides with a Nikon Coolscan, but it's slow going. B&W is especially tough, since the auto dust removal algorithms don't work on them.
― schwantz, Friday, 19 July 2013 16:08 (ten years ago) link
What a treasure trove!
Here are a couple - not by me - from school. Welsh sprinter Christian Malcolm came by for sports day and, pro that he is, sat there for photos with *every* kid in the school! The guy is five-nine (and had PBs under 10.1 and 20.1 back in his prime), so hopefully an inspiration to Ava as what can be achieved with relatively short pins...

We went camping with a bunch of friends this weekend. Lots of cute kid shots here, but here are a couple of my boys (sporting some somewhat awful haircuts):

Heh. Kind-of. At least for identicals. Although in this case, Ben lost his left front tooth a few years ago, after chipping it.

That's really great.
Better get a couple of recent ones in before Flickr goes down for maintenance in 15min!
