UNcivilized





When I was a nanny for two little boys long ago (the eldest is now driving!), I remember one cute conversation I had with the 3-year-old, concerning his baby brother. (A little background: this boy LOVED the movie "Pocahontas" and frequently marched around the house singing "savages, savages!") This particular little boy looked at his brother, who was covered in food, sitting in his high chair - smiling like he was having the time of his life. "Tysha - don't you think he is completely UNcivilized?!!" I had to smile.

Fast forward about 12 years: Sawyer now likes to try to feed himself. When the spoon isn't doing him justice, he just tosses it overboard. Dig in! Watching him the other day I had a flashback to the above memory. I just LOVE UNcivilized little squirts! Sticky yogurt, graham crackers and all!!!

Seriously...how can kids be so cute when they are making such a mess? I love it, though! He is adorable.

So cute! I actually had a dream about you and Sawyer earlier this week (I know, totally random actually), and ironically food was involved :) I LOVE LOVE these cute pictures you take of him.... and he is looking so much like you in these pictures.
