Rough Morning

Sometimes you play rough and win, sometimes you play rough and lose, and other times, well, you're just not sure how you came out in that whole mess.


"Uugghh. Feels like a freight train is running through my skull. Why is it so bright in here? I'm not taking these off until someone turns off the sun. What time is it? What did we do last night? I remember my whole crew was up in my crib, even the lemur and that giraffe with the big eyelashes. There was music, at least two FULL sippies of triple distilled H2O, and who knows how many blankets."



"Were you there? I thought I saw you there? Did you cut out early? No? You sure you weren't there? I coulda swore I saw you over by the nightlight."



"Anyway, thanks for the breakfast. You're a lifesaver, mom. Say, would you mind grabbing the laptop when you get a sec. I really oughta check Facebook. As full as my diaper was this morning, I'm sure I've already been tagged in a couple photos dragging that extra weight around. Oh well, no regrets is what I always say."

Stir Fried

Xavier's had enough sitting on the sidelines while mom and dad cook dinner. It's time to get into the thick of things.



"Let's see here. Gigantic skillet, check. Gigantic spoon, check. Gigantic amount of not having a clue what I'm doing, check."



"This is pretty easy so far. Grab your plates guys, dinner will be ready in 5."



Suddenly a wild miniature cat appears on Xavier's shoulder to whisper instructions! Isn't there supposed to be an angel on the other shoulder?

Time for Play

Patiently waiting for dinner, Xavier and dad lay waste to the living room.


Xavier laughing at dad's pathetic attempts at making elephant sounds.



Not quite sure this guy is OK to drive... maybe one milk too many.



"Stop crushing my head!"



Barking dog.



"Who put my gumball machine on the ottoman? Me??? If I did it why would I be asking?"



"Guess I'll just move it myself in a very serious and determined manner."



"And now to the chair."



"Aaaaand positioning..."



"Alright. I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY!"



"nevermind... lost it."



"Dinner almost ready mom? I'm really comin' apart here!"

I Love My Leather Jacket

This kid looks like some kinda roughneck in his tough-as-nails leather jacket. He's only been out of bed for 25 mins and he's already prepared to kick butt and take names.

"Almost ready for school, but something just doesn't feel right. Seems like just one bottle isn't enough for a kid that can rock out a jacket like this."



"That's better. Time to double fist me some liquid breakfast."



"C'mon mom, let's get busy livin'!"



"It's time to go mom, I'll drive... where's my chopper?"
