seriously, I love this boy so much- but I am constantly having to remind myself of that love! He is such a boy, rowdy, crazy, into everything (i mean everything), loud-(does not know how to whisper) .....etc. Just the other day he was at my mom's and found an aerosol can of sun screen. I was searching for him everywhere and he was up in her bathroom spraying the whole bottle out. It smelled so bad I couldn't even breath- there was a fog over the whole room because he sprayed so much ( SORRY MOM!) (we're talking oil in the carpet, it took the paint off the walls... and probably caused brain damage, like he needs any of that!:)) and that same day we heard "thuds" coming from the laundry room- we followed the sound and when we opened the laundry chute- it was filled with shoes and tons of clean clothes- him and his cousin Braden had a blast dropping anything and EVERYTHING down this chute! We've had a long summer- He loves to be outside and one day he came in with no pants or "big boys" on and so I asked, "where are your pants?"
C "there just right there" as he points to the floor
J "why don't you have your pants on?"
C "oh, I just pooed outside..."
J trying not to laugh, "you WHAT?"
C "oh, I just pooed outside..."
I opened the door, and sure enough, he had pooed on our deck- Lovely!
on a more positive note- he is potty trained (he loves to pee outside, but for the most part he always goes in the potty.), He loves to ride his bike and everyday he tells me, "guess what mom. I can do a backflip on my bike..." ? He loves to dress himself- which usually means no "big boys" and just basketball shorts- (but hey, he can do it by himself, I love how he backs himself up until he's propped up against something for balance while he puts his legs in. saves me some time!), He's very friendly and talks to anyone who will talk to him. I always catch him outside talking to the neighbors- he likes to help them weed their yard- and he LOVES to help clean toilets with Katie (he calls her "lady"- so cute!)
I really hope I can make it through this next "phase" of life with him- he tries my patience almost every minute of everyday! But as much as I scream and yell (mostly in my head- but not all the time) I DO LOVE YOU and in those moments when you bring a smile to my face- that smile is HUGE- and it's usually accompanied by a laugh- and that's what gets me through you!

Oh jess- I can relate! Kristin isn't into pooping on the porch yet- but she does do some crazy things! She is such a climber! I have to watch her like a hawk 24/7 or she will be on top of the kitchen table trying to pull the light down! Oh man! Your boys are so stinkin' cute!
What a funny boy! He is too cute!
Jessica, He is just like my second. Even as I type he is beating up his older brother! I swear boys are no joke! You are such a cute mom!
He pooped on the deck...that is hilarious! He is such a cute little guy. Sorry I missed the girl's night, let's do lunch next week.
poop on your porch?? Hillarious! Cade is the funnies kid ever! Love all your posts. I hope Dave's foot cleared up and is A-okay! Love ya!
Jess, that sounds just like Cader bugs. He is one that melts my heart all the time! Ever since the begining! Did you save the poop for Dave to clean up???
I think I know another kid that sounds a lot like him...Arleigh. She is into riding on Emery like a horse and telling me what to do. But then when I get mad at her she starts crying and says "that scares me" then I just feel so bad and have to give her a hug. Turkey.
