After soaking his shirt during snack (doing his favorite "take a drink and spit it down my tummy" trick) I just let Graham go bare bellied until bedtime. And I couldn't resist a few photos :) I think this was the first real "muscle man"... a chubby happy baby!
Note the drool, love it!
This is one of my favorite "Graham faces", the tiny little "O" mouth.

This is one of my favorite "Graham faces", the tiny little "O" mouth.Never did I realize there was much truth to the whole "red heads have fiery personalities," until we had our own. OH BOY, can Graham throw a doosy of a fit! He loves to arch his back way out (even if you're holding him -we have both become ninja fast at catching him before his head hits the floor). He sometimes likes to protest with a good old "bang my head on the nearest hard surface routine"-a few days ago it was the corner of a door frame because Daddy put him down so he could wash his hands, he has a nice bruise from that one. And then there's this...the "throw myself backwards, roll around and cry really angrily at the world." AAAAHHHH gotta love a pistol of a red-head! The thing is, (as many of you other parents out there of true red-heads may attest to) that besides these "I'm as mad as all get out" moments, he really is a happy happy easy-going kind of kid...honestly!
When Daddy gives the kids ice-cream for night-time snack it comes with an added bonus!

oh my gosh, Mandy....you are the cutest Mommy and your kids are just adorable. Oh how I wish we all lived a little closer to one another. Mateo would have a blast with your kids :)I know Gramma Julie is just the proudest Gramma...and the kids are definitely a mix of the two of you, but the Barnes that is there, I can really see! ;)
We love Hershey's chocolate sauce in the mouth. That's the best!!! Spray whipped cream is pretty good too. So funny, Mandy:0)
As the proud parents of a RED RED HEAD, we have experienced all that you mentioned about his fits and more! Ella was a head banger at his age and now she is the biggest drama queen ever. She is SOOOOO different than our other kids but at the same time such a fun kid. Very outgoing and active.
Can't get enough of this kid! Emmett does the "oh" mouth all the time too...love it. Keep the pics coming on the blog, like I said, we can't get enough! :)
Does Dentist Todd recommend chocolate syrup for all kids?
