The Boy

Nathan had his first trip to the zoo a few weeks ago. We went with his aunt Nici and cousins Ciara and Caden. Rather than pay much attention to the animals, he was more interested in pointing out the Coke machine.

Nathan had a fun Easter eating candy, cookies and cake all day (yes, sign me up for Mother of the Year!). Here he is modeling the cutest Easter outfit ever. All credit goes to BSC, good job dear:
This is his "happy/excited" kick. He sits down and kicks his little legs as fast as he can:

And now the outfit without the sweater:Our little Doodah (the most recent nickname) will take a seat anywhere:
Recently the poor little guy gave himself a fat, bloody lip. While playing hide and seek with Daddy, he did a face-plant on the kitchen tile. Screams and blood followed. The swelling came a little later:
Nathan's favorite thing to do is steal my wallet from my purse and empty the entire contents. He also recently shoplifted some underwear from The Gap. Are these the beginning signs that we're raising a kleptomaniac?

I can't believe how big Nathan is getting! And how red his hair is.

I wish I could give my mom the red headed grandbaby that she's always wanted, but I don't think red hair runs in either mine or the husbands family.

Kleptomaniac? Too early to tell. His father's son? Absolutely.

Love it! What a beautiful boy!

given your family history he definitely is a kleptomaniac. I mean, with your stint in county jail back in 95 after robbing the piggly wiggly...Remember

Nathan is growing up so quickly (and so cutely!) Sorry I've been out - looks like all kinds of excitement has been in your life of late. You're a champ for posting!
