Our Little Big Boy

We went garage saling last Saturday and found this awesome bed! The lady gave it to us for just $25, down from $45 because she said Maddox just had to have it and he loves it...as long as he doesn't have to sleep in it for real. He will do all the pretend sleeping you want and loves to climb on it and read books, but whenever we lay him down, he always climbs out and comes to visit us in the living room with a huge grin on his face. We will have to work on that one...Any ideas?


And last but not least, our little boy can't be a true big boy without Batman pajamas, cape and all. He has no idea about any of it, but we think he is just too cute. Of course, with his recent issue with hitting, kicking, and throwing things at people/kids, we probably shouldn't encourage him with any superhero kind of stuff.

Speaking of kicking and hitting, Jeff and I have made it a point to attend nursery each Sunday to protect the other kids from him...the bully. There is a play kitchen in there that the kids love to play with and crawl through, from the oven to the other side where there are cabinet doors that open up. Maddox has recently made it a habit to stand in front of those doors and kick the kids in the face as they attempt to crawl through. I promise we did not teach him these things and we have tried a million consistent time outs to no avail. Now we are just trying to ignore the behavior and distract him and this seems to be helping out a bit. Little stinker, but still cute and we still love him!
