boys

I have a feeling I will have a lot of upcoming posts titled "boys." My observations of my own in recent days have really gotten me siked to add another to the bunch. This particular Cavin family is busting at the seems with a lively bunch of boys. Out of the womb and IN the womb. Baby Boy Cavin is quite the mover and shaker himself. 

Exhibit A. The Tuck Man carries a gun (a water gun) with him wherever he goes. (and apparently the spanking stick in this instance) Excuse me, I mean wherever he runs.

*look at those legs!

He even takes it with him on the tractor with daddy. We have deemed him our official bodyguard.

Exhibit B. This is my more mild mannered boy thus far. 

In all his Grey Bearness, he is VERY curious. Never missing a beat. I love seeing life through his little eyes.

He even will make this face for me frequently to which I reply "ahhh! It's a warrior coming after me!" 

I'm confident we will never lack this particular hair style or look of wonderment at birds, planes, tractors, trucks, etc.

 There will never be a lack of trains and all the sounds that come with them. All the spit provoking sounds.

There will always be certain bodily functions that create the biggest smiles. Along with terrorizing and catching frogs in the yard. Tractor rides with feet up abandoning all fear. Animal noises that always end up in a growl accompanied with claws to scare the predator.

Wrestling. Lots of wrestling. Whether it's with each other or friends! (Krista is a good sport) Our days are filled with tackling, pile ons, and body slams already. I can only foresee these activities becoming more frequent and intense. 

Oh how the list could go on and on and on and on, I am taking hold of the testosterone and really really really enjoying it. Did I say really? I meant it. I have embraced being completely outnumbered. 

One thing is for sure. Boys do love their mommies. Along with the body slams and dirt eating, the cuddles and kisses are just as frequent. The "hold me mommy" is heard often and the "I love you's" are habitual. As I know our lives will be full and lively and loud, I wouldn't trade it!
