This post is mostly about Reid because it seems like he consumes our lives lately. The older boys are usually playing Legos in their room or outside playing or fishing with the neighbor boys so Reid has been my little buddy lately. I love him to pieces, but goodness gracious he can also make me out of my mind with frustration. Three is a darling age but also the most difficult age!!
He has been obsessed with his tools lately (after watching a few episodes of Handy Manny)...
He is always, always sweaty and dirty (and usually sandy, too)...
He loves to dig with his diggers in the sand on the side of our driveway (even though he has a perfecly good sandbox on the side of the house)... At first we tried to get him to stop digging there and just use the sandbox, but now we're to the point where if something is keeping Reid occupied and happy for a few minutes and it's not hurting anyone we just leave him be!
I mentioned in passing one morning that I needed to water my plants on the front porch and then went inside. A few minutes later I wondered where Reid was and went out to check and he had completed this chore for me all on his own.
Although I'm not sure how much water actually went into the plant pot.
He is so absolutely adorable, though... it's hard to stay mad at him.
So is this guy... my baby...
And this one...
Everyone wants to be just like Daddy...
Another Reid obsession has been this cowboy hat (a birthday party favor from years ago) and plastic Nerf gun. He came down from his bed the other morning like this...
Loves to pretend he's a cowboy. It's really cute, but then five minutes later everyone is screaming, "Mom!! Reid's shooting me!" Lol!
