the pink cape

"Batgirl" is now fighting crime... in style.

my little superhero

"Batman... do do do do do do do do do... batman!"
This is what I hear as Ryne runs down the drive way.
He tells me, "my name is not Ryne right now, it's batman!".
He calls his sister Robin. She makes an awesome sidekick.
We're playing outside, because it makes his cape fly better. At least, that's what he told me.
I hear, "to the batmobile!", as he jumps on his bike.
He asks his sister, er... I mean his sidekick, "Robin, do you want to get the Joker and the Penguin?"
He starts swinging at the air.
I love his imagination.

Will this dynamic duo be able to save Gotham City from the evil villains before lunchtime? Stay tuned...

she sleeps

him

No longer a baby... or toddler really. Just a little boy. Running around the house with a plastic sword. Wearing his superhero cape. Going to college basketball games with his daddy... NO GIRLS ALLOWED. Putting his hand over his heart for the national anthem. Eating popcorn. Protecting his little sister from "bullies" on the playground at Chick.fil.A. Saying things like, "I requested ice in my water!". Spelling his name. He's even trying to write it and doing pretty good. Asking what letter certain words start with. Riding his bike way too fast down the driveway. Riding on the shopping cart like a "fireman". Says he is going to play for the Cubs when he grows up, but I guess that's after he is "number 22 for Alabama". His favorite colors are green and pink(???). He is already registered for 4k at our church.

Wishing I could keep him this little... longer.
