Three Potato- Freewriting

What can I say about "S"? He's my Three Potato and Mr. Personality. He was unexpected, but not unwanted. A timing surprise but certainly not unintended. He's twenty months younger than my second born and thinks his 20 lb frame can take on his older brother who's twice his size. 

I named him what I did because I saw "S" in a dream and knew that baby was him. Even as late as during my labor we were debating names, as my husband wasn't sold on this one. But he was one of those babies that you hear about. When I saw him, I knew who he was, he was the baby from my dream. He was "S". It's funny that I saw him before he was born because he looked nothing like his two older siblings. He was an original and I knew it before we ever met.

This child is a ladies man and he's got the eyelashes to prove it. A total flirt who bats his eyes and winks at girls. He loves being the center of attention and is never too shy to entertain anyone who happens to be watching. I love to see him play with his siblings, he adds his own touch to everything. He would never just go with the flow, he has to make himself known. And he thinks his older brother is super cool. He's always following him around and trying to get in on the games that he's playing. They also fight like crazy sometimes but I guess it wouldn't be normal if he didn't try to insert something of his ideas in the activities. Sometimes he pays dearly for having original ideas but that's what happens when your older brother is twice your size and you pick a fight!

One of my favorite things about him is his love of music. He just turned two but this has been obvious since he was tiny. Sometimes the only way to calm him down was to crank up the Veggitales Lullabies and let the vibrations rock him to sleep. Now it's so fun to see how he reacts to music, it simply moves him. He hears a beat and can't control the movement, he has to dance to the rhythm. He gets his little shoulders bopping and swivels around the room with his diapered bottom. His foot work is pretty impressive for an adult, let alone a toddler. He just lights up when he hears music, even dances to the sound of my bread maker or beats his own rhythm out on anything that will make a good loud noise. I can't wait to see who this kids turns out to be. I know it will be nothing the world has ever seen before, my little "S", my Three Potato.
