This Week in the Toddler Times of Huckleberry Holbrook

By Natalie |

Hi guys! It’s Huck! Here’s what I’ve been up to this week.

  • Hey guys! So, this week I've been REAL busy. Mostly I've been doing a lot of getting-into-stuff-I-don't-need-to-be-getting-into. It's the coolest! Here, I am getting into my friend Harper's shoe drawer. I mean, it was her idea!

  • You like my cool hat? Yeah, Mom makes me wear it. It's not even that cold in the apartment, Mom!

  • This is my new tent! It is SO COOL. Mom put it up in hopes that I would be distracted by it and stop messing with the Christmas tree so much. Yeah, I'm on to her. But, have you been inside a tent like this? Oh man, it's my favorite thing!

  • Every day after my afternoon nap Mom bundles me up and we go for long walks so she can do all her errands. Usually I wear a giant stroller sock. Yeah, it's pretty cozy. But sometimes I get so hot in it! And I have to kick it off! And then it gets run over by the stroller! And then Mom says a swear word real soft, like she thinks I can't hear it? So when the stroller sock is getting washed Mom bundles me up in this blue blanket. Do you think I look like a grandma? I'm secure enough in my manhood that I don't mind.

  • The other day Mom made me a smoothie. YOU GUYS SMOOTHIES ARE AMAZING.

  • So let's talk for a minute about this Santa business. Do you see the look on my face? Do you think I am impressed with this person? GUYS, I'M NOT GOING FOR IT.

  • Christmas trees though, okay, I'm cool with Christmas trees. And this one is really, really big! Soo big! It belongs to some feller named Rock? I don't know, I'm fuzzy on the details.

  • This is my Dad. I really love my Dad. I'm getting real good at giving kisses, too. See? Mom asks for one ALL the time. I love to give Mom kisses, but it's just that usually I'm real busy pulling all her books off the bookshelf? Timing, Mom. You know?

  • Do you know what is real sweet? Watching the Christmas lights glow from inside my tent.

  • Know what else is real sweet? BATH TIME. I love bath time! I like to get as messy as possible during dinner time so that I HAVE to have a bath after. I'm talking macaronis IN MY HAIR. Always seals the deal. Mom's not on to me yet, it's a super sneaky trick. Yeah, you can use it if you want. Works every time!

  • Anyway, life's pretty awesome when you're a thirteen-month-and-three-week-old VERY BIG BOY. Isn't it?

    Handsome boy but this isn’t very good. It is something a relative would read…and slide shows are ANNOYING!

    @Stacey, it’s from Ikea! Highly recommended. Think it was about $20?
