The Daddys

We have a serious case of what I like to call "the daddys" around here. My boys are absolutely obsessed with their dad. From the second they wake up till right before bed they are either with their dad, or asking where he is. It doesn't make me feel bad because I know they love me but it also hasn't stopped me from hoping that Gouveneur is a momma's boy.

Here is some proof of how they feel about their dad.

Soon after we got these elephants they became "daddy elephant" and "baby elephant."

Sterling and Dellin each have a bear that they love. Sterling got his as a gift before he was born. Dellin received his on his first birthday from Colby and Maria. The next day, they were named "daddy bear" and "baby bear."

Naturally the hammer head sharks are "daddy shark" and "baby shark."

And of course my favorite, "daddy Thomas" and "baby Thomas." I may have encouraged this one a bit because "mommy Thomas" would have been weird.
Once when reading a book there was some animal, maybe a horse or something that Sterling Henry said was a "mommy" so I know I'm not completely forgotten.

I love that my boys love their dad and I love that they suffer from "the daddys".

We're in the same boat over here. We went to Zach's work last night to watch a fashion/hair show and the first thing out of Xander and Blayne's mouths when we walked in....
"DADDY!! DADDY!!" and off they ran. There was a large crowd, music, and lots going on but their enthusiasm for seeing their daddy was so great that almost everyone there turned to see my little nuggets enthusiastically running to their daddy. At least our kids have worthwhile men to look up to. Lucky us!
