Sounds like we're both blessed with inquisitive little sidekicks! I just posted the same about Aidan and came across yours.
Awwwww......it's wonderful how you're recording your thoughts along the way about motherhood and the kids....wish I had done more of that.

Travis, how do you handle the constant questioning? I have to admit it drives me NUTS sometimes. I've resorted to the good old "because. Just because" several times now.
After the 38th consecutive "whaddya mean?" question I usually throw back a "whaddya mean, whaddya mean, whaddya mean?". He starts giggling and sometimes it distracts him enough that he forgets what he asked and we move on. I love that he asks a lot of questions but daddy's brain gets tired sometimes.
