Some Splaining to Do.

So, I've always called our friend's babies "Baby-head". I do it without even thinking. And now I'm calling my own baby "Baby-Head".
Yesterday Randy said, "Why do you call him baby-head?"

"Baby-Head" is yet another term (like Tate!) that I picked up from my youngest brother Adam. He was a very expressive and enthusiastic child, especially when it came to insults. He tried to be creative with them, but more often than not, he was so mad at Alex that he would resort to looking furiously around the room and scrambling for the perfect word. And after finding that "perfect" word, he would simply attach the word "head" to it.
Alex was a "dog-head".
Alex was a "carpet-head".
Alex was a "dirt-head".
Alex was a "remote control-head".
But mostly, Alex was a "baby-head".
You could hear it echoing throughout the house. "Alex!!!! You're a....a.....a...big fat baby-head!!"I wish I had better kid pictures here to post. I miss my siblings. This picture was taken between my Junior and Senior year. When I had friends over, the kids would come knock on the door and ask if they could come in and look for pennies. I wish I could kiss them on their enormous Raiford-Heads! I sure do miss them!
Anyway, Adam is all grown up now (18) and I'm sure his insults have developed over the years.I, however, am stuck with his childhood vocabulary (that he doesn't even remember).
I still love baby-head. Its my all-time favorite.
