Nate is definitely my child, or, wait, Lex is!?

When Lex was born (like the second the doctor pulled him out) I remember people in the operating room saying how much he looked like Erik. Okay, I admit I was a bit out of it then (wayyy too much medicine!) but I remember thinking, "aw, how cute." Well, he hasn't changed. At. All. I mean, I love that he looks so much like his dad, but come on! He was in my belly for 40 weeks! Couldn't some part of him be from me? His hair is. He's got my hair now. It's getting much thicker and starting to curl up slightly. Oh, I'm pretty sure he's going to be on the shorter side of the male average. And, this week, I have noticed one more thing he got from me.... a love for infomercials! Yep. He will sit in amazement through them and then be like, "Mom! Did you see that? We have GOT to get that! It will do XXX!" That's my boy! Nate, on the other hand, didn't really look like either of us. I could definitely see some of Erik in him and Erik's Dad. But, not me. Until recently. A cousin posted a picture of me when I was about four sleeping at the dinner table and it looks just like Nate with a wig on! Yes! I have a child who looks like me! He's also a bit of a stinkerbutt, which, in some ways, could be like me.... As the boys and I were watching television the other night, there was a commericial of a boy going down a waterslide on a cruise ship. Lex got very excited and said, "Man, that looks like fun. But, I need to learn how to swim underwater first." My serious smart-ass son Nate says, "Yes, and you need a boat." I will say, I love watching us come out in them. But, not so much when it's the stuff that drives me batty. Then, I just tell myself...the teen years are not that far away. I will soon get revenge! :)
