He's ALL boy

Ah, raising a son. So very different from raising a daughter....

First of all, this kid is messy! He is constantly drooling and/or spitting up. If you click on these pictures to enlarge them you will see the front of his shirt is completely saturated. In the third picture he is covered in runny-nose mess and has bits of dinner stuck to his face.

As a result of this constant dampness and stickiness, he is often kind of smelly. Like sour milk.

Second, he laughs when I wipe his "extra appendage" while changing his diaper. Every time. Just this deep chuckle, like it is the funniest thing ever. What a boy. He was also inspecting himself quite closely in the bathtub tonight. I just handed him over to Sam and said "Yeah, you deal with that."

Third, his favorite toy is an extra TV remote that Sam brought home from work. And if he's sitting with you on the couch, he will twist and turn and lunge to get the remote from you. Again, just like a man.

UPDATE: He also eats grass and playground rocks.

Regardless of his aroma at times, I simply must nuzzle my nose into his neck at every opportunity!
