Cousins are fun.

The little guy has been spending the last couple days with Nana and Pops while his Mom is on a business trip in NC. Nana and Pops took the kid to go visit his cousin today who then came back with them for a day of fun and a big sleepover. Below is what seems to happen when they get together. I must warn you, you might want to turn the volume down on your computer!

Thanks Pops for the video! Things must had been crazy at the grandparent's house tonight!

23!

That's 23 months, which is how old the little guy is as of today. Wow!

Time flies...

The arrival.

First off, this post has nothing to do with the Booger except for the fact that he now has a new back seat to ride in.  My Jeep came today.  After almost two weeks of driving the back way into the office so I could go  around the dealer's lot, she was finally sitting there this morning waiting to be checked out by the service guys.

I went over at lunch to drop off some paperwork that the dealer needed and snapped a few pics.  I will always love my TJ (and be sad every time I think about her driving away) but this one is pretty sweet.  The Booger's mom is out of town this evening so I didn't get a chance to take the new girl for a spin; just a quick drive home from the dealership.  Anyway, without further blabbing, presenting the newest member of the Booger's family! (no name yet, suggestions welcome)

Oh alright, here's a picture of the kid.  Picture him saying, "No, Mommy. Walk away!"

Football!

The poor little guy is thoroughly confused. He spent his Saturday wandering around alternating between "Go Seminoles! Fight team, fight!" and "Go Vols!" and "Let's gooooo Mountaineers!" To the untrained ear, it sounds more like "Go cinnamon rolls! Fuh-fuh-fuh!" and "Let go my ears!" He's got "Go Vols!" down pat. Anyway, here he is enjoying a corn muffin in front of the TV (a football season treat).

I just wish our teams played as enthusiastically as the little dude.

Nap-time with Daddy?

I was away for a while today, so Eric was in charge during nap-time.

Yup, that's the little booger asleep on the floor in front of the couch. Awesome.

There's Three

So, people usually say that bad things come in threes, right? (1) Yesterday poor little Beau hurt his back (again) and has to be on bed rest for four weeks. (2) While Eric had Beau at the vet, I tweaked my knee running up our stairs, so it's ice and elevation for me. (3) The little dude has pink-eye in both eyes.

Garbage!

He is also very interested in the trash can. He likes to reach in there and take stuff out so that he can throw it away again. I guess we have pink-eye infested trash.

Talking!

The little guy is so funny-- he just narrates whatever he's doing. He also asked for something tonight, told himself to say please, said please, and then thanked himself for saying it. This kid cracks me up.
