Boys!

As much as I knew boys are just genetically predetermined to be just a little rougher and more energetic than girls, I still wanted to have a boy first. Mainly, it was because I can handle being a little rougher now than being prissy and having WAY more attitude down the road. Well, Carter is now showing his boy side. He takes the dinosaurs out of their bucket and makes a deep roar for them. Yesterday and today he's been enjoying playing chase with Piston, even if Piston doesn't want to. He chases Piston with a baseball bat, one of those old ball popper push toys, and his favorite, a plastic mini-shopping cart. Each time Carter is about to ram Piston, Carter lets out a nice "AAAGHHH!" It's sort of his, "Gotchya!" Our pitbull is now terrified of our toddler. Before, Piston could just kiss Carter away. Now, that doesn't even work. It's so sad, and yet so funny.
