living in the past?

when i got lawton dressed for school this morning, the thought occurred to me. i have seen this outfit before. it seems as if i am trying to relive my days at STATE through my child. the days of popped collars, new balances, columbia shorts, croakies, rainbow flip flops and izod shirts. oh, and lets not forget the guys having "frat hair" that now resembles justin beiber. lawton doesn't have that yet, but the curls are coming in!

i remember my old boyfriends mother telling me that she made her son get a tetanus shot before he started living in the frat house....really? am i going to make lawton do that? can we say paranoid? that is, IF he wants to be in a frat, you don't have to by buddy! mama loves you for who you are! okay, now that that is done, i feel better ;-)

here is my little frat star all dressed up for school. at least he doesn't have a hangover, smells like booze and has to run across campus to make that 11 o'clock class. mommy, dressed him, fed him, changed him, loved on him and took him right up to the door to drop him off. i need to take advantage of these days because pretty soon he is going to have me drop him off 3 blocks away and say "peace out mom".

here is the same outfit that i was thinking of about 15 pounds lighter and 4 sizes smaller!
