Geez o' Petes

Petesy is Jumpin' J's nickname. When he would get into all the things he wasn't supposed to I would say Geez o' Petes which became "J" o Petes. I think it's his natural tendency to try to do everything that I would prefer he not do. And "J" o Petes got shortened to Petes very quickly since I seemed to be saying it frequently. And then it became Petesy or Petesy Weetsy.

It now applies to all of his silly looks and actions as well. He has this super funny face that he makes by sucking his lower lip in and he then makes puffing noises to go with it. And when he makes himself laugh by tipping sideways. He really is such a good natured kid, he loves to laugh! I think it's the first time in my life that I've been so funny.

I'm sure that one day he'll roll his eyes when I call him that. I know I sometimes still do when my mom continues to call me Susie Q at almost 30. But for now it's sticking. And heck, he responds to it which makes it even funnier in my opinion. So here are some recent Petesy moments:
