Bloody Nose

Austen is one of those kids who is prone to bloody noses. Not from fistfights or from picking it (at least not that I know of), but from dry air. So we had to invest in a humidifier for his room that looked somewhat stylish since it was going to be on every night. And it seemed to have worked too since the bloody noses stopped almost instantly. Wouldn't you know that the one time we didn't turn it on that the bloody noses returned. This background is just to preface the next story.

Last week, Tom decided he was going to have a V8 so he poured some into a glass to enjoy. Here's what Austen thought about it:

Austen: "Daddy, what's that?"
Daddy: "It's a drink that makes you big and strong."
Austen: "Oh (wrinkling his nose) that looks like a bloody nose!"

He may not look like me but this kid sure acts like me!
