i'm trying to get more candid shots of my kids. the everyday stuff that i know i'll forget in probably, let's say, 4-6 hours.
here charlie is taking his nap. you wouldn't know from this picture that just two hours before, he was jumping on his bed, yelling, "I NOT TAKE A NAP. MOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM...I NOT WANNA TAKE A NAP."
he yells everything these days. his conversational voice differs from mine and most other humans on this earth.
so i replied back to charlie, "you have to take a nap." which loosely translates to," mommy needs a break. and my ears are bleeding."
we go through this everyday. 95% of the time, he wins and doesn't take a nap, which loosely translates to, "MOM. MOM. MOM. MOM. WATCH THIS MOM. MOM. MOM. YOU DIDN'T WATCH! WATCH THIS TIME, MOM. MOM, FEEL MY MUSCLES, MOM. I A STRONG BOY BUT YOU JUST A GIRL. MOM. MOM. DID YOU SEE THAT?! THAT WAS AWESOME! MOM, WHERE YOU GOING, MOM? CAN I COME WITH YOU? YOU GO PEE PEE OR POO-POO MOM? I COME WITH YOU.. WHY NOT?! MOM. MOM. LET ME IN MOM. IT'S BEEN A SECOND, MOM. YOU DONE? OK, NOW WATCH THIS, MOM..."
and believe it or not, i will miss this just as i miss every phase he's gone through in the past. just the thought of that makes me a little sad...
so here's me trying to document more of the little things.
happy wednesday, everyone!
