Rusty right now

Why do they insist on eating from the middle of the sandwich?




Man I like this picture. Rusty has been looking older to me lately. I think he may have had a growth spurt but I can't be bothered to actually measure him and see. He has also been a bit of a pill. Disobedient, likes to say 'no', energetic (which is just a word disguise for 'hyper'), intent on hurting his sisters feelings, cannot wear shorts with pockets. Apparently his skin has gotten very sensitive because, all of a sudden, pockets bother him. He likes those elastic waisted cotton borderline pajama shorts. I feel like my motto this summer is going to be, "choose your battles". Eating healthy is a battle worth arguing, but I don't feel like winning a battle over cargo shorts just because they would be nicer looking for church. Because I would really like to wear my yoga pants to church too. In fact, I think I will. I'll have to wear my dress yoga pants instead of my everyday yoga pants. (Yep, that's how you know you've arrived)



Do you see the ornery in that face?
I have decided that children are just the annoying characteristics of your spouse or yourself magnified in the form of a child. Sassy, stubborn, opinionated, clumsy, and mean spirited. I'll leave you to decide which of these are mine and which are Todd's.

He is looking older...but that could be that I haven't seen him in a while. Great commentary...how did you know I was trying to figure out which traits went to which person? Miss ya girly!
