Hi.
I am Tatertot.
Or Monkey.
Whichever you prefer to call me.
I am 2 years old and I rule this joint.
I am the baby of the family so the way I see it, everything is about me.
All.The.Time.
I am an extremely active little man.
I enjoy playing outside, throwing my toys around the house and making huge messes for everyone else to clean up.
One of my favorite things to do is undress myself when my mom or dad puts me down for a nap or to bed for the night.
I am a nudist.
I like to let it all hang out.
And, occasionally, I like to pee on my bed or the floor.
My mom’s always telling me I’m lucky I’m so damn cute or I’d be history by now.
I think she says this just because she gets frustrated when she finds me with my wiener hanging out and discovers I have wet sheets.
I’m also a competitive food thrower.
Seriously.
I can launch food up to 50 feet.
I just enjoy watching it splat in the end.
Another thing I like is to laugh.
There are A LOT of thing that I find to be extremely funny.
Like farts and nipples and burps and stuff.
All of it makes me chuckle.
Oh, and I don’t like to express myself verbally unless I really have too.
My favorite word is Mommy.
Everyone is Mommy.
Until they ignore me.
I also say “Eewww” and “Owie” a lot too.
I think bugs are pretty cool right up there with sand, sticks and rocks.
I have tons of really cool toys but I’d rather just run wild in the backyard beating my fists on my chest.
The best part of being me is I am continuously pampered by the bigs in my world.
If I poo or pee in my diaper all I have to do is point to it and Ta-da! Next thing I know is I’m laying on my back, hands behind my head chillaxing while someone else cleans the poo and pee off my junk and bottom.
If I get dirty, the bigs give me a bath and clean me up and then I smell very nice.
See….it’s rough being me.
Sorry, have to run now, it’s time for me to get naked and run around the backyard while my mommy tries to catch me.
See ya later!

In recent days, the little Tatertot has become a kissing machine.
I love getting little kisses from my little man.
He kisses my lips, my cheeks, my eyes, my nose, my forehead.
I am okay with all of these.
But now, now he is obsessed with kissin’ mah bewbs.
Yes.
The twins.
The girls.
The lady lumps.
The boy is all over them.
It was bad enough that he already suffered from a seriously nipple obsession.
Poking and prodding at the nearest nipple not caring whose body they were attached to.
I could even handle the occasion hand going down my shirt and the ‘WOW’ coming out of his mouth.
But now….
Now we are on a whole new level.
He is now constantly kissin’ on my bewbs.
We’re talking 24/7 any chance he gets
Smooch
Smooch
He’s even gone as far as showing me his boobies too.
Now maybe this is normal for a child who exclusively breastfed for his entire first year of life without a bottle in sight, but I’m still confused!?

There have been A LOT of things going on since my last post.
We have acquired an additional body in our house full time and another one part time.
A close friend of mine and his 9 year old son are staying with us temporarily while my friend heals from a break up and gets back on his feet.
His 9 year old son is staying with us as well, when he is not at his mom’s.
Things have been hectic, but we are happy to be able to help them out.

In the mean time, I’ve been trying to keep up on my household chores, which the little Tatertot is making extremely frustrating.
He has been enjoying taking his diaper off at night and peeing in his bed, meaning we are washing sheets….A LOT.
The kid will not keep his clothes or his diaper on, so it looks like we are going to have to turn to the trusty Duct tape and start securing those bad boys.
Next week, we plan to start the potty training, so wish us luck.

In other news, the Hardworking Hubby and I have both been keeping busy with school. I am in my last week of my 5th block of classes. After Sunday, I will officially be halfway through my program. YAY!

The kids are all doing well.
Zman will be graduating from the D.A.R.E. program this evening so I am getting ready to attend the ceremony.
The DramaQueen is still as dramatic as ever but is kicking some serious butt as well.
Tatertot is also talking a lot more and is more active everyday.

So, what’s new in your world??

This amazing little boy joined our family.

And then the first year passed

Today, today is a happy and sad day.
Today, my baby becomes a toddler.
Today he turns 2.
Happy Birthday Monkey!
You have become quite the little man!

Can we say….ham????
