Some of our friends have a cute little dog, Chloe.  Since we don’t have pets, Toren seems very interested in other peoples’ pets, especially when they are smaller than he is (he’s a bit afraid of our neighbor’s big dog, which is at least twice as big as Toren).  During one of our visits, Chloe…

One of Toren’s recent infections was diagnosed as having made it to his lungs.  So, he was prescribed nebulizer treatments.  He hated them.  The only way we could get him to do the treatments is if he watched videos during the treatment (and even then it was a struggle).  Here he is during a treatment:…

Part of the reason men get so jealous in relationships is because they don’t want to be cuckolded into raising someone else’s child.  Women are much less concerned about this as the maternity of children is readily discernible; the paternity, of course, is much less discernible.  While I’ve never truly questioned Toren’s paternity, it’s become…

I took Toren in to UT on the Saturday of Gasparilla hoping there would be boats going up and down the river.  There were and he enjoyed watching them.  But he eventually wanted to go inside, so we did.  I took him up to one of the upper floors of Plant Hall (the famous building…

Debi was doing the laundry one day and Toren wanted to go see what she was doing.  I went with him, and, seeing the clothes dryer empty, had a brilliant idea: Why don’t I put Toren in the clothes dryer? Now, before you call child protective services on me, first think back to your own…

Debi brought home some cupcakes from a work function one night.  Toren took one look and decided they were his:

Toren got a new car from some friend’s of ours (for a kid who isn’t supposed to have toys other than blocks, he now has quite a collection of toys).  He also likes wearing hats now and borrowed one of Debi’s, which is too big for him.  Combine the two and you get our version…

Toren has shown almost no interest in the toilet.  But, in good Cragun fashion, we asked him if he’d sit on the training potty if we gave him a book.  He said yes.  Ergo: It’s so well-known that Cragun’s like reading on the throne that one of my good friends gave me a book holder…

Toren’s new daycare brings in a professional photographer every so often to take candid photos of the kids.  They then print the best photos and put them on display so you can purchase them.  We didn’t think we’d be interested, but we decided to look at the photos anyway just to see.  When I stopped…
