Funny Funny Kid

Spencer makes me laugh. Like a lot. He also makes me a little crazy.  He is difficult when he doesn't get his way.  Well, he's 2, you say.  Well I've had 3 other 2 year olds, and they haven't had this much fire in them. So here are a few examples.

He wanted to eat his whole tomato in the living room, but I moved him to the counter....

So he told me how he felt about that.  

Then he complied 

Who sits in a stroller?  Not this one.  He stands on the little bar at the bottom backwards. 

This was a hilarious moment.  He was trying to get this old cell phone in his pocket, but he couldn't see around his belly.  Somewhat like a dog chasing his tail.  It was definitely entertaining. I tried to help, but he didn't want it.  Big surprise.  He finally let me.

He fights me every morning changing his diaper wanting undies, so I put him in underwear, but then he fights me to sit on the toilet.  It's a really awesome power struggle. Isabelle has more luck than I do, then again she usually comes with an iPad. Haha! I gave up over the holidays, but am going to hit it hard again soon.  He's super ready, i just need to get my act together to do it.  

One day he smeared "something great" down every single one of my stairs. And laughed. It was impressive enough that I did too. Haha.


This baby NEVER wears clothes! We walk in the door and he takes off his pants.  He usually at least has on a shirt, but rarely pants. It makes me laugh. "Spencer, where are your pants?!"  His response, "I take them off. I no wike a pants!"

 This was a soccer game in late September when the weather starts getting chilly. I wish I could remember all the circumstances about how he ended up this way (he usually stays dressed outside of home), but with a naked baby running around the soccer fields, I was laughing pretty hard.  

Dirt. He gets so filthy and just laughs and smiles.  

I just find myself laughing all day long at him.  The way he talks, his reactions, the way he thinks he runs the place, the way he thinks he's 5 years older than he actually is, the way he sucks his thumb the way he loves his trains. I just love this little boy.
