Mr. Personality


God has definitely given our son an extra dose of personality. He is just full of fun and opinions these days. Today he refused to sleep without his beloved football in his arms. He somehow managed to continue holding it even after he had fallen asleep. At one point he dropped it and screamed until it was back in his reach. His Pop Pop is so proud! Today he was very into shooting baskets and ended each slam dunk by clapping for himself and then raising the roof. Also today he found an extra fun toy while Mommy was getting the car packed up for the zoo...petroleum jelly. Let me tell you, that stuff doesn't come off easily! He had rubbed it all over his entire body and then waxed some of the furniture with it. Once cleaned off we headed to the car to leave for the zoo, he ran around the back of the car and stuck his arm all the way up the exhaust pipe! He is a curious little guy! The zoo was a blast and was amazingly not scorchingly hot! He knows all the animals and has a blast seeing them in person. When we left the zoo I handed him a PB & J sandwich and found out he is just like his daddy! He opened it up and licked the jelly out! He is just the absolute joy of our lives! We are so blessed that Christ choose us to have such an amazing little boy. It is hard to believe we will have another little blessing running around in just a few months. Can't wait to see how their personalities compare!
