I mean, he already knows how to pump a keg and get daddy a beer. Don't pretend you're not impressed.

| Note: C did not actually pour a beer, nor has he ever drank any - at least I don't think he has This pic is for fun only :) |
He is also the best welcome home surprise...ever! I was so happy to see my little dude - and my big dude - waiting for me as I was coming down the escalator at Eppley the other day. And a Thomas Happy Birthday balloon? The sweetest. I will let you guess who picked that one out.
And later that night at dinner, my money-hungry little guy decided to face dive into the wishing fountain inside La Mesa restaurant to grab some "monies" as he likes to refer to them. He was playing with Day and Ace while the adults finished eating and the next thing I know, I hear Dayvaney yell my name see Cruz's head peek up above the side of fountain...and he was soaked! I was that mom who had to scoop my 'soaked from head to toe' little one out of the fountain at a restaurant and carry him dripping wet while getting disapproving looks from most of the patrons. The only ones who didn't give me those looks? The mamas with toddlers. They gave me that "I know how you feel, sister" look. Which I appreciated. Five minutes later, we were all laughing about it. It really was pretty funny.
What was not funny? Picking up Cruz from daycare and having the teacher tell us that he was bitten that day...by another kid. Um, excuse me, say what? My kid was bitten? By another kid? Please tell me you're kidding. But they weren't. They informed us that the other kid's - a little girl - parents were notified of her behavior as well.
Evidently they were both going for the same toy and that little girl decided to sink her teeth into Cruz's precious little arm so she could play with it.
The bad thing for that little girl? My kid knows the names of all his classmates, so he keeps saying "Evy, no bite. Ouchie! Dat's naughty" while shaking his pointer finger in the air. All I can say is Evy better watch herself next time I'm at school. Kidding. Or I am. Ok, I am. But look at those teeth marks in the picture below! Girlfriend sunk her teeth in deep.
Between all the beer and bites, I just can't help myself from loving every minute with this little guy. Can you blame me?
Your little Cruz is adorable!!! I came across your blog today via Girl in the red Shoes! Can't wait to read more!
ReplyDeletefollow along with me at mitchalycia.blogspot.ca
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you do more often! Swung over to yours and it was adorable - definitely will be checking in with you more often!
DeleteI'm surprised I'm having a mama reaction to Evy. I kind of want to spank her. The bad news? I think my little gal might have that kind of sass in her. We are going to work really hard on socializing her. It's so important.
ReplyDeleteIf you can believe it, it's happened two more times since then. We are having words with the directors tomorrow.
DeleteSass is ok as long as she is just protective of herself and doesn't turn into a biter! :) Regardless of daycare or SAHM or nanny, the most important thing I've realized is getting them involved with other kids early on is so important!
avrie is getting sassier these days, she has been "love tapping" aka hitting nicely... not in a mean way but i just hope she is never ever the one to bite. i dont see her being that way but kids like to surprise us!
ReplyDeleteDon't get me wrong, Cruz has hit before and definitely isn't perfect, but I haven't had reports of him beating on other kids so that gives me the right to be mad at that little girl...especially since we just had our third occurrence!
DeleteShe bit him? Not cool! Ouch, tough day at school I guess!
ReplyDeleteNot cool at all but I guess there could be worse! Maybe I just need to teach him to hit back :) Kidding.
DeleteLove this post and Cruz too!
