Like mother, like son……I used to sleep in the splits.
I Get It
What Generation Am I From?
What the ??? I was at Costco today asking about a new HD Video Camera. The helper told me one option might be the FLIP. I told him that I already had the FLIP, and wasn’t sold on it because the zoom was nonexistent. His response……”Well, it really is for MY generation.” When I asked him how old he thought I was, he knew he was in trouble.
Then yesterday, my mom was asking about what I wanted for Christmas, and gift ideas for other members of the familia. When I came up with the ultimate idea of 300 Chuck E. Cheeses tokens, she thought it was for someone else. Little did she know that I am craving those little gold delights. When she realized I was talking about myself, she made some comment about me acting my age instead of four years old.
Christmas Lists
It’s going to be an interesting Christmas.
Scout has only claimed he wants the following four things:
#1 — Pills and Medicine (his most popular answer by a long shot).
#2 — A mean scary mask so [he] can scare everyone. (Lately he has added that he wants it to be a witch mask).
#3 — Pistachios
#4 — A Ball. (This is only because when he sat on Santa’s lap, and didn’t respond with anything he wanted, Santa started suggesting. A dozen or so suggestions in, Scout finally agreed that a ball sounded good.)
Then I have Icka who is only obsessed with one thing.
FOOD.
And then there is Micah, who for the first time provided a list.
Isn’t it a little boring to give socks and white tee-shirts?
What next??? A 12 pack of toothbrushes?
I guess this is the year to bend the rules a bit, and get each of them what I want them to have.
Potty Humor
Scout’s two latest that Micah finds hysterical and I find pretty funny:
He first asks an unsuspector, “_______, Guess what?”
When they say, “what?”
He sings…..
“Ring around the rosies…pocket full of boogers!”
And then he rolls!
And thanks to Belly:
Anytime he does a “gas ball” (our term for flatulence), he instead announces to anyone around us that, “he burned a hole in his shorts.”
Classy….real classy.
Uncle Ray
Uncle Ray came down for Thanksgiving, and might have fallen in love with Navy. Even though her snoof was out of control all weekend long!
A Few Milestones
#1 — Navy is an official walker. I could have claimed this a while ago, and had I helped her, I could have probably claimed this at eight months. but now, at 10 months, she is an official walker. She got her P.R. the other day at 20 steps. She is capable of turning completely around while walking, of walk-stop-walk walking, and clapping and walking. Nice work Sweets.
#2 — Scout was climbing something this morning and said, “Mom…..I can totally do this!” So milestone number two, is my son’s use of the word “totally”. Maybe he will surf.
