Today was the first half of fall break, and I had one item on my to-do list: take a picture of the kids for our Christmas card. After 151 pictures, we still have nothing that will work for our cards. I went to Tupelo to get mom's help with the photo shoot, and the kids cooperated long enough to get dressed. Although it was overcast, it was also muddy, which was the first problem we had. Our bigger problem was Kate not wanting to participate, and our biggest problem was Benton's attitude. So if our Christmas card has only Lindsey on it, I hope everyone understands.
We finally threw in the towel and went inside where Popsey was flipping the channels. He stopped on an old version of Planet of the Apes, and Benton was quickly glued to the tv. So much so that a little while later when we were all ready to go eat and B said, "Just turn the tv off, Eddie," Benton quickly shot back with "Don't do it, Eddie" without batting an eye.
Check out this pose. If he was not so stinking cute, I would have left him in Tupelo. But I brought him home where he quickly convinced his dad to watch Batman yet again.
This little munchkin loves to eat. Although she looks like her mom, she eats like her dad. We hope she will not become a picky eater like the big two. The first week we tailgated she discovered Mary John's corn dip, and she went back for seconds and thirds until we finally had to cut her off. She ate the dip with a spoon. And it wasn't corn dip that a baby should like--it has tomatoes, peppers, and peas. The next game, she went straight for the dip.
