My UNIQUE one!!

Maddox has always been my "UNIQUE" child. I finally decided on the right word to describe him. It has also been weird, crazy, interesting, awful, funny, and just plain adorable. I would have to say that for the first 9 months of his life, I truly loved him....but I did not like him one bit. This is my child that was "forced" to come 10 days late at a whopping 9 lbs. 12oz. And after that, he hasn't been able to be forced to do anything. Bribes-- don't work. Time out-- doesn't work. Taking stuff away-- doesn't work. Usually, and this is just my opinion, a parent can look at their child and see what kind of person they might become. WELL, I am just totally in the dark with him.
Dinner Time: Maddox- "What are we having?" Me- "Blah, Blah, Blah." Maddox- "Mm, I yove dat!" Me- "Great!" 2 seconds later. Maddox- "mm, I not yike dat." Me- "Well, you can eat it or go to bed." Maddox- "Otay, I doe to bed."....... or....... I force feed him and he throws up on me and then goes to bed. GREAT FUN!!
At 18 months old we were adding on to our house. Jess was working on the roof so he had a ladder up. He hears Maddox calling "dadda." He pokes his head up over the peak of the roof and Maddox is on the other side running up to a different peak. SO SCARY! Happened 10 more times until he learned to pull the ladder up on the roof with him.
Pictures- 1-1st birthday.. didn't want to get his hands dirty. Must be clean always!
2- Gotta love it!

3-There was pizza on the table, he climbed up, ate it, and then fell asleep!
4- This is Maddox when he was constantly climbing on the roof!
5- Just a cute shot! And 6/7- He has totally been doing the dishes lately! Like I said, "just unique." You never know what you are going to get.

Okay, I can't get the hang of this blogging thing. The set ups aren't coming out how I think they are set up. So if it looks funny... sorry.

Yeah another blogger! I was so excited to see your comment. Just wanted to let you know you spelled my name wrong. It's Alisa, no worries i know you know how to say it. That's all that matters. I loved seeing the Pictures of Maddox. He is too cute!

Maddox seems too timid to do something like climb on the roof! If you check this before the morning, will you bring a few bows to the t-ball game? Thank you! Oh, and my name is LindsEy

Liz,

I am so glad that you started a blog. I never feel like I have much to say either, but I love reading everyone else’s. It is a fun way to keep in touch with the day to days of the people you love.

Maddox is so stinkin cute. Sometimes I think the naughty ones are extra cute so that you don’t kill them.

Welcome aboard!
