Biggest and Youngest Rocky Fan!

If you read the post below, you read that Julien and Jonah got boxing gloves for Christmas. It all started when Julien was 2 (he is 4 1/2 now). One night Rich sat down with Julien and turned on Rocky. Rich has been a fan his whole life too. Anything that daddy does with the kids becomes very sentimental to them and they will love it forever. So after watching Rocky once with Dad, Julien was hooked. He began his obsession. When he watches it, he rips his shirt off, sometimes even puts water on his chest to look like sweat, and acts out every single punch exactly how it is on the movies. He has them memorized. He has been singing "Eye of the Tiger" for years now. It's pretty cute! In this family Rocky is everywhere; on the t.v., the soundtrack in the car, when you call Rich, his ring tone is the theme song from Rocky. Now we have two sets of boxing gloves around the house. So for this whole time that Julien has been a fan of Rocky, he has never had a pair of gloves. He was beyond trilled when he opened them! It's only been a month, and his gloves are shredded (but I'm sure that has to do with the fact that they were only$5)! But mom is still against him doing boxing as a sport, I'm hoping he will never ask. Rocky is fine, but not the real thing please!
Isn't he tough!? Such a cute mean face!

    Your boys are seriously SO cute! That last picture with the gloves is my favorite. They look so handsome in their suits, too. When, or maybe if, I ever have boys, I can't wait to dress them up in cute little suits and argyle sweater vests. I'm glad that you have the internet again :)
