There is a certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse! As I have often found in traveling in a stagecoach, that it is often a comfort to shift one's position, and be bruised in a new place. ~Washington Irving

Someone's Growing Up

Maddox took a fall on the tile floor today and got a little goose egg on the side of his head.

He thought the word "goose egg" was hilarious. This morning, he also thought that pointing out everyone's awkwardness in Publix  was very, very funny.

"Mom, that man doesn't have hair!"
"Mom, that lady can't walk!"
"Mom, I don't like that lady. I'm gonna poop on that lady."

When "shhh" doesn't work, you pull out the distraction card:
"Hey, Maddox, what color is that?!" (not working)
"Um, Maddox, are you excited about your birthday?" (he gets louder)
"Hey...hey...pick out a snack! Anything!"

Ah, fun times.

By the way, my little Maddox is turning THREE tomorrow. I can't believe it. Nana and Ninny are flying into town and yep, it's going to be one happy day.

First birthday                                                               Second birthday (buzz haircut!)

 Almost third birthday ♥


And not to leave out Jude's big moment: he took TEN steps today! Pretty soon, he'll be running next to big brother.
