There is no end to the cuteness in this little cousin of mine--hereby dubbed E.L. Kiddo--seen here giggling as he tries to avoid my pincers. (His Nana, seen here holding him, often teases him that she's going to pinch his nalgitas, his little buttcheeks, which makes him giggle.)



There's the little sucker with a little sucker. He's almost two years old, has a love of candy, tractors, and pizza, and he especially loves to sit on his Tata's big motorcycle and go "Vrrooom! Vrrrooom!"

Last night my mom, Dave, and I had pizza with him and his own little entourage (his Nana and Tata only, since his Dada was at work). I got to give him candy, play ball with him, and push him around in his little car. He also showed a two-year-old's comprehension of the adult conversation going on around him when, prompted by a story that his Nana was telling us about finding him in the kitchen up on a chair with a knife and a block of cheese and the desire for a little snack, he went and retrieved a long, sharp knife from the kitchen counter to show us.

'Atta Boy!
