at least he is about the cutest thing ever...i'm guessing that his good looks are the only thing keeping him alive day in and day out.

hahaha, sorry for laughing, but it feels so good to know there is another little boy out there in the world giving his mother heck! love it!

Sorry to say it, but thank heavens there is someone else out there experiencing a child like mine. Maybe it's the Jan 2 birthday that makes them so naughty! ;)

When Abby was little she would go into our closet and pull every single tie down off of Tom's tie rack. Every day at least once. Drove him to drink (kidding but it did make him so mad!)Sometimes she would even do it when he was in the bathroom trying to be sneaky. And my makeup, it's still put away up high to keep her out of it...she's almost 8!
