PhotoHunt: I Spy
I spy, with my little eye, something RED:
Leetle Tiny Hightops. Official Converse Chuck T. Hightops.
Because how could I possibly not use nephew pictures for this week's post? I had to. It's required. (All the good aunties are doing it.)
I bought him these shoes this week. I had to. (That is my one response to all things nephew-related. I had to. There is no choice in the matter with that boy. I am simply compelled.) The cuteness level was through the roof in the store, so you can imagine how precious they were when actually on him. On second thought, though, you don't have to imagine. Here are pictures. More pictures. Of my nephew.
(Who is clearly the cutest baby ever.)
Punk with Sippy Cup
Yes, he is wearing a Dead Kennedys shirt. It was a Christmas present from his auntie. His only auntie. I bought it in Camden, home of punk rock. Though to be honest, I'm not sure whether it was really a present for him or for his father. (Who got a Sex Pistols shirt from the same market.) It's the sort of outfit that's designed to make a dad proud. And the Boy will be able to wear it for years to come, given the way it fits him right now.
Blanket Head
Because the whole family likes to make the toddler look ridiculous. He will hate us all someday. The bear is actually part of the blanket on his head. It's pretty amazing to me, by the way, how much that boy loves books. He's very careful with them. And he loves to hear stories. My brother was making all of the sound effects for the various machines in that book. I'm sorry I didn't record those as well.
Baby with Bowls//Jump Higer, Run Faster
And finally:
Watching
His eyes are now the same color as mine. That makes me ridiculously happy.

I felt EXACTLY the same about my nephew when he was that age. Aren't they fun? He is almost as cute as my neph.

I just love him to pieces. When I said good-bye to him on Thursday evening (they live six hours away by car and I was going home early the next morning), I squatted in front of him and held out my arms and he came running into them. It broke my heart and filled it to overflowing all at the same time.
