Xavier and the Dirty South




Xavier has just fallen in love with the Dirty South.  He likes the music, he does not pass up the opportunity to sing along to a dirty south rap song.    

He loves the food.  He can eat hush puppies by the dozen but let's be honest, who can't.

And his latest cultural adaptation, the do rag.  Here in the South, you can buy them at the convenience stores and he has been begging his Dad to buy him one.  Early this week Eric finally broke down and bought his sons do rags.  Xay was too excited and even wore it to bed.  A few days later I made him take some pictures and he happily obliged.  Wow, Xavier has to be my fairest child and yet the most down with the cause.

This is the best! I'm cracking up! It's so crazy to see him so grown up- makes me sad that I haven't seen him since he was 3!
