Whitten

This boy. This boy. He truly is a Spicy Head. He can climb anything, eat anything! He hits, bites, yells, pulls hair, and kisses us all the time. His little personality is so passionate. He loves hard and fights hard...and for that I blame my mother. They truly are kindred spirits. Now that said my mom certainly doesn't bite or scream at me but you know, it's nice to have a scapegoat to blame your problems on.

He's been teething so you can imagine his attitude lately...GruMpy! He has had a fever, and nasty diapers, and has been grouchy as ever but my mom sent him this glow in the dark halloween shirt and that in combination with him grabbing a whole apple and chowing down (see if I waste anymore time cutting things into small pieces out of love again) put him in a jolly mood.

This picture perfectly illustrates our son. He was given a nice warm play bath. He was then put in jammies and probably given a love by his dad (I was not home for this episode). He promptly got a hold of a cell phone which he KNOWS he is not supposed to touch and called Dusty's grandma. While Dusty was explaining to his grandma what happened and apologizing he heard the plopping sound of a red headed boy in the tub for the 2nd time. He dropped his head in fear that he was in trouble and wouldn't look up for the picture. He has a gift for trouble and defiance and stubborness but he also gives the best hugs and kisses freely without being asked. We pray we can channel his whirlwind little spirit in a positive direction and if not, that's ok. We'll just send him to live with grandma!

sidenote...of all the shoes he could try on...he ALWAYS picks Paisley's. We are fearful that may be a forecast of things to come.
