Permed Darth

 Recently, Darth wanted to try a perm. And you know what, we all said why not? So he went and got one. 

And after it was all said and done, 

So cute! I love it haha and he does too. 

Darth, the Author

  Y'all, nephew Darth is a writer, and good for him. He wrote this short story.

A real page turner. Amazing. 

Soccer Champ

 It's Darth's last soccer game today and I am devastated to miss it. Luckily his dad still sent us some pics, since his mom was with me as well. 

Ugh he's so cute and I'm going to miss his growing up!

How to Stay Warm

 We went to the Zoo Lights up at the Hogle Zoo tonight and brought the whole fam. When we got there, Darth got out of the car, and his outfit immediately brought me joy. 

I just absolutely love him. 

Spider-Boy

 Today I got a call from my sister, who's car had broken down on a busy road. Husband and I sprinted out to help her. Husband looked at the car whilst I was helping distract the fellas. Darth decided to go ahead and, oh, I don't know, CLIMB A CEMENT WALL NEXT TO A BUSY ROAD, but that's completely in character for him. 

Like any respectable aunt, I did indeed take a picture instead of trying to make him come down. What an absolute unit of a child. 

Darth Sports

 The latest sport of Darth has been basketball, for the last couple of weeks. This type of basketball is so fun to watch because literally nobody is following any rules hahah. Nobody is dribbling, there is no out-of-bounds, it's just a lawless territory and I am here for it. 

Darth is the goober with the long long socks hahah I love it so much, 

Future Career Day

 Today, the kiddos had to dress as whatever they wanted to be when they grew up. Darth dressed as this: 

When asked about it he said "I'm going to be a business man when I grow up" but he didn't have a specific business. I love it. 

Darth Starts the Second Grade

 Guys, I can't believe that our tiny Darth is starting the second grade. 

What an absolute cutie, he's so old now! 

Red Haired Fiend

 Darth recently requested that his hair be red, and we were more than happy to accommodate. 

Right after they finished 

Styling it the next day

He loves it - of course. Can't wait to do all the colors on there. 

Darth Goes Baseball

 Y'all. Darth started to play baseball this week and he is the best. 

He's not necessarily the best player, but yeah, he rocks. 

This is him trying to run to a different base, and being told to go back. I can't watch this without laughing so hard.

He's so great. Every time he goes to bat, he makes sure to get our attention so that we can see him hit the ball. And he waves every time he gets to another base haha. 

What Would You Take to the Moon?

 Whenever I get to see one of Darth's assignments, it makes me smile so hard, he is just such a funny guy (not on purpose haha). He had an assignment this week to write down things he would take to the moon.

I am dying that family is last on his list. I mean, I guess I should be glad we made it at all! 

Crazy Hat Day

 Today was crazy hat day at school, and Darth participates in everything (thank goodness! I love that he is a brave little tyke) so he took advantage and found himself this cool hat. 

I will be sad when his tooth grows in and he doesn't have this toothless grin anymore, look how sweet he is. 

Old Man Darth

At Darth's school, they have a day where they have the kids dress up as old people (I think its to celebrate the schools birthday?) Last year, Darth refused to participate, but this year he was ready (I think he's just a shy guy who gets nervous doing anything outside of his comfort area). So they got him some great clothes and makeup, and he looked amazing. 

I'm Blue (Da ba dee da ba di)

 I got these snapchats whilst I was at work today and I about died laughing. 

What a swell guy haha.

I'm Mary Poppins, y'all.

 This absolute nut of a nephew of mine is just the best. 

I love him haha. 

The Midas Touch

 Today, we went up to my aunt's house, to bring her some food and stuff (since she had to miss our Thanksgiving, since she's a teacher and we have some high risk over here). Darth came inside to get me, and I howled when I saw his outfit. 

He is attempting to be a guy, Midas, from Fortnite. You can't really tell in the pic, but he has a scar that goes from forehead to nearly his mouth (made from highlighter and an eyebrow pencil). The tie he loves. He is now working on getting a suit vest, since Midas wears one in the game. I will add a pic of him wearing that when it happens! 

It's called Fashion

 ... look it up

He chooses the best outfits, y'all. 

Freezer Time!

 I went shopping today and met my sister there. Since nobody can be visiting each other's houses, but we're still allowed to go shopping, I have found this loophole. We can shop near each other and still keep all the rules. Nice. So we went today and when we got to the freezer section, I had Darth get a thing out of the freezer that I couldn't reach. Then when he had half of his body in there, I "helped" him get the other half in and then died laughing. 

He is such a card haha we have so much fun. 

Darth is Best Child

 I know I say this about every kid in my life at some point. It changes daily. But for today, Darth is best child. We got his school pictures today. 

That head tilt is killing me, it's so dang cute! Then that night, we also got this gem. 

He's just so funny. And he's so dang spunky, he is so wild. 

Final Game! ... Again!

 Today was Darth's final soccer game for his soccer team. Seems like we just had a final game, because WE DID but hey, we we're used to this. Anyway, they did an all right job, it was HOT (because last Saturday was just raining on us the whole time, yikes) and they ended in a tie, which was garbage, but at least its over. Afterwards, we snapped team pics and that was that. Sadly, no medals for everyone this time. 

But look at all these cute tiny guys, so nice.
