baby brawler

Tennyson needs to learn English so he can say "you should see the other guy." Seriously, he looks like a baby brawler. We took him to get his 1 year pictures done yesterday and he's got scrapes on his forehead, a big bruise on his cheek, the underside of his nose has cracked open in bright red glory because of all the snot-wiping, and his bottom lip (inside and out) has teeth marks in it from taking headers into the furniture, floor, wall, door frames and bottom of the entrance stairs. On the inside, my boy is a big cuddly softy. On the outside it looks like he goes to baby fight club meetings.

We postponed Jordan's one-year picture because she fell out of a lawn chair and scraped the end of her nose pretty badly. As much as I'd love to postpone Tennyson's picture so he was more blemish-free, there is no point. He always looks like this. Pictures to follow.
