Shoulder pads and cheese!

Like his mother, Walker is a stickler for conformity. Once he gets on somethings, he likes to do it everyday at the same time. As soon as we walk in the door in the afternoon, he insists he must have on his Auburn jersey and shoulder pads. I will always look back to the time when this sweet little boy was running through the house and sliding across the hardwood floors on his knees, saying "hut, hut." Next month he'll be two. I can't believe my baby boy is growing up so quickly. When he becomes a man, it's this very moment in time I know I will think of and how much I wish I could go back in time. I love his face expressions and how he really gets in to trying to tell you something important. I have absolutely no idea what he's trying to say, but I love it! Just yesterday he wanted to watch one of his Bob the Builder DVD's. The cover had a picture of a real dump truck. He cried and screamed "truck!" over and over because he never saw the truck in the actual movie. It became the biggest ordeal and he ended up having to go into "time-out" over it. But looking back... he had no idea why that truck wasn't in the movie. What a cruel world! Hee Hee!

Back to conformity... Walker has to have a quick snack after a few minutes of hard play... he usually wants cheese and juice... then it's off to ride the tricycle.
After his bath at night, he absolutely has to have on his "G-Daddy" shirt. The only problem with this is... he has just started wanting to keep it on the next morning and wear it to NaNa's house. A G-Daddy shirt is a Harley Davidson shirt. Walker has a ton of them because Zac's dad has Harley's and buys the grandkids one everytime he goes on a trip. I was embarrassed the other day when Walker went to Kyle's baseball game with a black shirt that had a pig driving a motorcycle! Yeah, he looked nice.




"Cheese!"


We took Walker to a fair in Huntsville. He loved the petting zoo.
