I'm a Big Kid Now

You can only fight with a child for so long....RIGHT! Well, last week was the first time I let Austin eat spaghetti by himself. I can't stand the clean up after the storm. But lately, he has to have his own plate, utensil and will absolutely not let us feed him!
now what? Good thing mom took my shirt off
MMMMMmmmm- good stuff

oh, wow---what have I done???

That is SO funny! Those pictures are hilarious!!! Spencer is the same way, he refuses to eat if we try and feed him.

It does bring back memories....All I can say is "enjoy it" while you can!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Love a good spaghetti mess. Cleaning tomato sauce out of a belly button is such a good time.

HAHA so i showed aaron and he asked "why does she let him do that?!" and i reply "b/c he won't let her feed him." ANd he said, "Its prolly b/c she jams lemons in his mouth!" HAHA I thought it was funny! House hunting?? chris would love austin! Great bike trails!

Katrina, lemons are dessert now in our home! love 'em! just kidding.
Becki & Kat- HOUSE HUNTING IS SO STRESSFUL! Find a babysitter this day for this long; on the internet non-stop; on the phone at inconvenient times...I've not been myself lately!

That is so cute! Hayden is like that too. I always remove their clothing when they eat spaghetti. Even the girls' I can never get it out.

Oh My Goodness...you're so brave. I can't stand the messes, getting it out of hair is the worst. Makes for GREAT pictures though.

Haha--LOVE IT! I always feeling immediate stress when I see my kids like this. But it's still so cute. Way to go Austin on becoming independent!

Sydney is exactly the same way! The clean up is not fun at all! She got it on our walls and now we have to retouch some paint! He is such a cutie!!
