Haiku Tuesday

So I found this Haiku Tuesday post from over the summer that somehow never got posted. Remember way back when the grass was green?

Snuggles and smiles.

Say "Cheese!" for the camera, Mom!
Don't we look so cute?!

OK, you can have fun with this one! I'm leaving it up to you, my readers, to come up with a clever haiku to caption this interesting photo...

Ok, we're trying something new with MckLinky this week. If all goes as planned, you should be able to leave your own haiku for my photo directly on my MckLinky at the bottom of the post. Please somebody try this so we can see if it works!

Haiku Tuesday (with a twist!)

This week's Haiku Tuesday has a twist: I'm giving you the job of writing a haiku to put with this picture. So take a look, don't give it too much thought, and add a haiku to the comments. Remember the haiku rules: First line has five syllables, second line has seven, and third line has five. Happy haiku writing!

Haiku Tuesday: (Wednesday Edition)

I appoligize for the belated Haiku Tuesday post. My days just seem to be off this week. I think I'm going to blame that on camping.

Just look at that lip

Can't be happy all the time

But she's still cute, right?

Now it's your turn! Write a haiku to go along with a photo, post it to your blog, then jump back here to add the link to MckLinky! Easy as pie! (Which, by the way, I am about to eat!)

Haiku Tuesday: 7th edition

I'm feeling a bit nostalgic today. Camille is away, visiting her great-grandparents with Aaron's mom. Although she doesn't get to see her often enough, Camille adores her great-grandma! Ever since she was small, she has always found comfort in great-grandma's arms.

Now it's your turn to pick a photo, write a haiku about it, and post it to your own blog. Then jump back here and add your link to my MckLinky!

Haiku Tuesday: 6th Edition

Feel free to add your own haiku/photo combo! Simply post it to your own blog, and come back here to add your link to the MckLinky!!

Haiku Tuesday: 5th edition

No photo tonight, sorry everyone! But something really funny happened tonight after we put Camille to bed, so I thought I'd write a haiku about it...

new princess nightgown
busy hands remove diaper
wet spot on the crib

Tonight we put Camille down for the first without her sleepsack on. Our idea was to put her in a nightgown since it would be sort of like a sleepsack (well, more like a sleepsack than footie pajamas). It took her a while to fall asleep. She was perfectly happy chatting in bed for about 30 minutes. When she did finally go to sleep I decided to go check on her, only to find that she was sleeping quite soundly, and quite diaperless. She'd been wearing a BumGenius cloth diaper, and had quietly removed the velcro tabs and taken off her diaper. And fallen asleep. I went to tell Aaron, and together we put another diaper on her and moved her back up to her pillow, only to reveal a nice wet spot at the foot of her crib.

I guess tomorrow night she'll be wearing a onesie under her nightgown.

Please write your own haiku (I usually have a photo that goes with mine, but not this week), post it to your own blog, then add the link to your post to my MckLinky at the bottom of this post!

Haiku Tuesday: 4th edition

Better late than never, right?

For those of you who are new to Haiku Tuesday, let me take a moment to explain. It's really quite simple. All you do is pick a favorite photo from the week (or, really, from whenever) and write a haiku to go along with it. Remember, a haiku is a three line peom. The first line has five syllables, the second has seven, and the third has five. It's easy! Give it a try! Then, when you've posted your haiku and photo to your own blog, jump back to my blog and add your post link to my MckLinky. Have fun!

Haiku Tuesday: 3rd Edition

It's Haiku Tuesday time again, here at Through Mommy Goggles! So pick a photo (recent or not-so-recent) write a haiku to go along with it, and post it to your own blog. Then add the link to your posting down below using MckLinky. Easy as pie!

haiku tuesday: 2nd edition

OK now, friends. Nobody joined last week. But now you know what's going on so I'm expecting a few links to your own haiku! You can do it!!!

Haiku Tuesday!

UPDATED:

For those of you who need a little Haiku 101 (ahem, Kristy)...Haiku is a three line stanza of poetry consisting of five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the third.

I've decided to start my very own blog carnival! A few of you may remember way back when when I regularly (okay, occasionally) wrote a haiku to go with a recent photograph. I've decided to resurrect this theme and make it a weekly occurance. I also encourage you to join in on the haiku fun and write your own haiku (photo optional) about what's going on in your life. After you post your own haiku on your own blog, just click the MckLinky at the bottom of this post and enter your blog's address. Others will then be able to link from my blog to read your haiku! Fancy, huh?

Unfortunately, I don't have a photo to put with my haiku for this week....

listen to stories

meet some new friends and eat snacks

But I will share with you some of my former haiku...

So now it's your turn to write a haiku! And I do know several of you who have your own blogs. That's right, I'm talking to you Megan, Kati, Anika, Kristy, Aimee, and Carolyn...
