I'd give you a title but all the ones I think of Make me CRY!

So you see this Little guy? He is seriously why I got into the whole mothering thing (ok maybe an exaggeration I have two other reasons why I got into it but this post is about this particular reason). I'm not sure if it's because he's a boy. Maybe it's because he's my third child. Maybe it's a combo of the two but this boy is so incredibly busy. He's learned how to climb onto everything and anything. He runs all around the house constantly. But my favorite Will past time is trying on shoes. Mostly because the shoes in this household tend to be on the more womanly side and thus my mini man has learned how to look oh so fetching in my best pair of high heels. But when he found my running shoes I figured I could take pics of him and not worry about the shame it would cause his manly state.


He's perfected the sit down method for shoes but my shoes were still tied and so he had to change his approach.

He's getting a good step into it.

And now he's realizing that i'm taking his picture and gets his best manly face on.

And now he's getting his run on. I hope and pray he has his Dad's natural running form but at least I'll be able to say that it all started in my shoes.

But as I looked at these pictures Something was bothering me and finally I was able to pin point it.
His hair has been driving me bonkers. After having two adorable little girls once the hair starts getting like this it starts getting braided and pulled back into adorable pigtails and other such girly nonsense. I would comb it in the morning while I was doing the girls hair but Will really likes to comb his own hair so about 2 seconds after I comb it you can't tell that the effort was even made.

And thus the decision to go from Baby Boy to all Boy was made. I pulled out the clippers and Jeremy pulled out the camera. He was all smiles to begin with. Afterall he loves to have his hair combed.


Then he heard the buzzing of the clippers and all was not so smiley any more.


And then we ended with this......
And some of this.....
As soon as we were done I grabbed a sucker and he was contented for a moment or two. His sisters were more than willing to smile for the camera but Will I think felt a little side swiped.
I probably would feel confused to. I combed his hair all the time and gave him great attention too. Why on earth would I ever do something so drastic as cut his hair. To be honest I'm sad but at the same time his facial expresions have increased a whole bunch and he's getting away with a lot more because darn it he's just so cute.

This is goofy face. I caught him just before he was about to climb on top of our kitchen table.

See if he smiles he knows he'll get out of it with nothing more than a hidden smile from me.

I love his super long eyelashes and they seem to stand out even more now that they're not fighting his hair for attention. (Is it wrong to be jealous of your baby boys eyelashes and covet them deep in your heart?)

And POP you can't fight with his eyes now. Ahh man I feel sorry for teenage girls they are all going to get into major fists full of hair and nails all over just to get a date with this one. SNAP!
