Nicknames and Duties


Here is Porter last night in his green bath for St. Patrick's Day. He thought it was pretty neat; of course I can't get him to smile for the camera (if only Daddy had been home). Onto other "hot topics", Porter has a few "nicknames": "Port-Port" is a famous, often-used one. I believe it was given to him by cousin Lincoln. One of my friends little 2 year old calls him "Hoarder" and another friend's kids think his name is "Quarter". How cute is that?!?! As mentioned in the past Porter likes to help me do chores but he has three chores that are all his own: putting his dirty clothes in the "dirties" (laundry basket in the laundry room), dirty dishes in the sink (have to hold him up but he does it), and what I call "diaper duty". That one he took upon himself. He loves to be the one to put his diaper in the Diaper Genie (or throw the plastic bag outside if it's a super stinky diaper). My little 18 month old is so cute and growing up fast! Does that ever stop being such a shock?

What an awesome idea putting green food coloring in! Did he become your little leprechaun after the bath?
