I would like to know who said boys are easier! In my experience they are just as temperamental and emotional as girls. And I KNOW they are not easier on their clothes. Josh has proven that beyond a shadow of a doubt by putting holes in 5 pairs of pants in only 18 days! Jeff would blame it partly on the fact that my children seemed to have inherited my questionable sense of balance. But not all of the holes were from unexplained falling down. I am still in disbelief that my son could actually go through FIVE pairs of pants in 18 days! They were all giant blowouts in the knees, most of them totally beyond patches! I wish I had taken a picture. But I guess the real payoff to the boy/girl differences will be 10 years from now when Kaitlin has a closet full of clothes but nothing to wear and Josh will be perfectly content with the 2 pairs of jeans waded up on the floor with a mysterious odor and of course, holes in the knees.
As a side note to this story- Josh actually put holes in a 6Th pair of pants about a week after the 18 day destruction of pants marathon.

That was well worth the wait...wish I hadn't finished my christmas shopping....I would have bought him pants.
I do wish there had been photos, though i can pretty much picture it all in my head! It's hilarious, a bit of a strain on the family clothes budget, but funny nonetheless.
We love and Miss you guys!
