Porter funnies:

• "Daddy wear du-dun-du-duns?" (translation: Does Daddy wear underwear?) 7/25
• Porter wasn't listened to me while we were all in the garage so I told him he had to go inside, physically placed him in the laundry room & had to push him out of the way to shut the door. He cried & Aaron got him & brought him out. Porter pointed a finger at me & reprimanded me 3x's saying, "Don't push me Mommy!" I apologized as did he for not listening. Such a funny boy! 7/26
• Rainy day I was rolling car windows up & down so Porter ended up thinking it was a game & asking for up & down...when I stopped responding he said, "Abajo!" That's Spanish for down...then when I prompted him he said, "Arriba!" for up....my little Spanish speaker! 7/26
  
• Opened Porter's door after what was supposed to be nap time (he never fell asleep; apparently the short cat nap in the car on the way home from Nana's house was enough) to see him with white stuff all over--it was Neosporin cream. He proudly exclaimed, "I put medicine on it!" 7/27
• Aaron dropped Porter off at his mom's house when I had 3 doc appts & as he went to leave Porter pointed his finger at him & said, "You be careful Daddy." 7/27

• Me: "Don't kick the dogs!" P: "Why?" Me: "Cause you'll go to time out & it's not nice." P: "Why?" Me: "Because Mommy said so." P: "Okay." =O Really? Can't believe I said that, but it worked??? =) 8/4

• Aaron had been gone for a week & his first night home Porter could not leave his side & wouldn't go to bed so Aaron let him sleep with us in our bed; he was so excited he couldn't stop moving or talking; he kept 'whispering' (it's a loud but CUTE whisper voice), "We be quiet!

Daddy/Porter games:

• "Run spin"--Porter starts to run & Aaron lifts him off the ground spinning around
  
• "Smash me!"--Aaron gets two pillows & chases him, smashing him w/ the pillows; Porter will ask for him to do it again & again by saying, "Smash me Daddy! Smash me!"
  
• "Airplane arms"--Porter lays face down on the floor w/ 3 limbs spread out; Aaron picks him up by one arms & one leg & spins him around

• "Hungry for Tummy"--that's what Aaron says to Porter who squeals & laughs & giggles & then his tummy gets eaten
  

Recent tidbits: I think Porter's "real cry" is adorable & it makes me laugh, but I've decided I hate his fake cry...it's not cute & it's so forced; starting to ask "Why" several times in a row...thankfully doesn't last long...hope it's not a new phase; a recent thing is him going in a room & locking the door...he has been getting in big trouble for that, unless it's to go potty

Now for a bunch of random, cute pictures:
Little sweet pea fell asleep watching comic book cartoons. I don't like when Aaron let's him watch those and then leaves. It was nap time! I couldn't turn it off right away but of course little guy was tuckered and didn't want to nap when I put him in his bed, but he did.
My little patriotic boy wanted to dress up like an Army man and wanted his flag too. So cute!
For a few days Porter was really excited about popcorn. One day he brings me one of the bowls we typically use for that reason, holds it up to me and asks for popcorn. Cutie! (7/5)
Porter put Teddy to bed again. I love it.
See he's got a sippy of milk, his covers on, and the fan on in the room. Guess no stories for Teddy this day. (7/7)
The visor Porter got to decorate at his friend Savanah's birthday party.
Porter at swim class. It was his last one.
Porter at the library after swim class.
Can't remember why Porter got upset and proceeded to cry on the floor, but gotta say he was tired and cute! (7/8)
Cutest little time-out kid ever! He only has a time-out a few times a week. He is a very good boy. Most of the time he listens; it's not too often we have to follow through with the punishment/consequence of not listening. (7/10)
A couple nights recently Porter has woken up in the middle of the night for who knows what reason and Aaron just brings him into bed with us because it's quicker. (Men...always just do with what's the easiest...*roll eyes*) When I woke up I looked over and didn't see Porter. He had flopped over and the comforter blocked my vision from this cutie pie.
Puppy Chancho--I love him! Chia was under there somewhere too. (7/14)
*Cheers!*
Teddy's turn to "Cheers!"
Then Teddy got a sip of grape juice. Porter is so nice to share and take care of him. (7/15)
All ready to go to church with his church bag! Every Sunday he is just beside himself with excitement to go to church. He loves it! It's so cute and makes me so happy. He LOVES going to nursery class especially.
(7/17)We have not been to the library as much as I would've liked to this summer due to the pregnancy, but we've been a few times. We went one day to check things out and Porter played with the puzzles. (7/21) Had my camera out and Porter said he wanted to see "Porter ahhh", so I took a picture of him saying "Ahhh" and showed it to him. (8/9) He is so funny! That same day he brought two kitchen towels to me and wanted us to put them on our shoulders "like Daddy" (that's something Aaron does any time he cooks or cleans in the kitchen). I LOOOOOVE my little boy!!!!
