Hi Daddy...doll


March 4th...
I would just like to say first off, that I am MORTIFIED about putting a picture of my son with this messy of a face on here! He had fry sauce all over his face! But...when you have a toddler and you want a certain picture, you can't stop and clean him up and then hope he goes back to what he was doing, because he won't! So, tonight's blog has a very messy face!
I heard about these Daddy Dolls a long time ago and always thought it sounded like an awesome idea and wanted to keep it in mind in case Derrick ever deployed. Well a few weeks ago, a friend of mine posted a picture of her daughter with one and I'm so glad she did because Derrick hadn't left yet. One morning before he went to work I had him pose for me, and I ordered one for each of the kids. I recently ordered them pillows too, they have Derrick's picture on them as well, and Cael really didn't seem to care about them when they arrived, so I was a little nervous. But when they came in the mail today, Cael was so excited! The very first thing he did was give daddy a 'head bonk' that is something they have always done together. Never me...I guess I have too sensitive of a head...but my boys apparently have no pain tolerance. Lucky for Cael, his bonks for the next year will be against cotton instead of skull!
He doesn't sleep with it though (which is kind of a bummer because the website has a HUGE photo gallery of kids with their 'daddy dolls' and the sleeping ones are all so cute, I was looking forward to contributing to that) but that's alright, he still carried him around all day. He even felt the need to carry around Averi's as well. Cute little boy, he loves his dad so much.
