As you may know, Campbell is either extremely annoying or extremely funny. No in between for this kid, so I think I will start off with the extremely annoying, but keep reading for the extremely funny.
Today, I finally have Mason down for a nap, Coolidge is fed and sleeping and Campbell is watching cartoons so I decide it is a perfect moment for me to finally take a shower. It is cold out side so the water feels extra good and warm and who doesn't like getting clean? About 1 min. into my shower Campbell comes barging in and tells me that he smells fire. "What?!?" I exclaim. "What do you mean you smell fire?" I rinse the barely lathered shampoo from my hair and jump out of the shower and don a towel. Campbell then proceeds to lead me on a wild goose chase through the house sniffing out the 'fire.' There ends up being no fire and Campbell cannot seem to remember why he suddenly had the urge to tell me he smelled fire. Cold, and irritated I jump back in the shower, since there is no immediate threat of a fire, but have to finish quickly because I can hear Coolidge starting to stir. Extremely annoying.
Now the funny. Last night when Andersen got home from work he decides to give me an extra long hug and kiss. Of course this triggers the kissing radar that each of my boys have embedded in their genetic makeup and Campbell is soon trying to wiggle his little body between Andersen and I. The whole time he's shouting, "cut. cut. cut. cut." When we finally can no longer ignore his presence Andersen and I separate. Campbell looks up at us with this EXTREMELY triumphant grin and exclaims, "I just cut through your LOVE!" Who is this kid and how does he come up with this stuff? At least the extremely annoying and extremely funny even themselves out.

That kid can say the funniest things. "I wish I were Superman!" And I am extremly impressed at his knowledge of where baby Coolidge came from and the whole process, in a church view sort of way not the birds and the bees way. Oh, and that time we were camping and he told Mom she was fat??? He's one of a kind.
He is hilarious! I think I probably would have killed hom over the fire thing. I too understand the LUXURY of taking a shower, and having the baby FINALLY taking a nap. Oh well, there's a time and season for everything, right?
Ah....the joys of boys!! Campbell reminds me of my Kade! Although, he has toned down a bit since he's gotten older!
I love how you see the good in situations! Even the extremely annoying story you seemed to laugh at! I would have ringed his neck...JK. You really do have a great perspective on life though and I'm grateful for your example. I get way to worked up about the "annoying" things my girls do. Luv ya!
That is so cute. I can't believe how similar our kids can be. And I am sorry, but from a distance, the fire thing is extremely cute too.
he's got a cute personality that one :) Good one with the "I smell fire" thing. Charlie hasn't done that one yet. Just the usual, "I pooped on the floor," and "I got blood!"
"AnnMarie, you dead man?" Are you ever going to post again?? I'm in withdrawal. It's not like you have four boys, 6 and under or something...
