Boy toys

Perhaps this is the reason that his daddy throws the football with him every night when he gets home. Maybe it's why he wrestles with him a little too rough for my liking. Maybe it's why he says almost every day that he is going to buy him some GI Joe dolls and a whole list of other "manly" toys. He did buy James a little football figurine last week but within an hour of opening it, James had broken his leg off and a few days later he brings the little man to me saying "where is his ball helmet, mommy"? Somehow he managed to rip his head off. But when you have a little sister like Audrey who is so into her dolls and baby strollers and is slightly domineering, what can one expect?!

But what a wonderful husband he's going to be!

Thanks for the fix.

March.

That's my train of tho't. He'll be a participating Father and that adds to his "husband-ing" attributes in my book. Love James pushing Audrey and her saying, if I'm not mistaken, "Go fast." When I see those adorable striped, footed p.j.'s, it makes me want some and makes me think Dr. Seus.

And hey, if you'll get them to sing Who Dat with their tshirts on- I can submit it to the TV station, and I'll just bet they'll show it on TV.

well you can console Jon by pointing out that even though he's pushing the stroller, it's more like he's playing bumper cars :)
