Baby Boy Boom

We've experienced an influx of the Y chromosome over the last couple of months and all I seem to be able to pray for is that my son does not influence these boys to jaywalk, ride their bikes without helmets or shoot spit balls out of a straw. I apologize in advance.

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but couldn't these three boys pass for each other? They are beautiful and perfect in every way and I look forward to squeezing each one of them!

And to add to our boy boom, my other bestest friend Anne and her husband Rob, just found out that baby #2 is a BOY! He'll be joining big sister Hudson. I know that 13 months doesn't really give my advice much weight but I'll just leave them with a few highlights of what they may soon experience.  My opinion offered as a guide to action.

Boys eat grass, sand and mud. Boys have no fear and will deliberately try to drown themselves.

Boys cannot get food into their mouths at a rate that satisfies them. Boys get pissed when they feel hunger pangs because they have low thresholds for pain. 

Boys think they are hilarious, even if they aren't.

Boys love meat and believe that the sandwich is a gift from God.

All hail the sub!

Boys are thrill seekers and will drain all the change in your pocket to ride these things.

Boys need to be thrown as high up into the air as possible to balance out the abundance of energy they have in their feet.

Boys love extreme sports, wind surfing via hair dryer.

Boys can be bullies. Boys can also be lovers. Lovers of their mamas.

Boys do not require shirts.

Boys are wild animals and they communicate in grunt.

Boys judge an objects fragility by performing the art of head butt.
