Our Big Boy continues to be our greatest joy. He appears to be a typical two-year-old, but has a pleasant disposition and inclination to behave...most of the time. Most of my amusement regarding him comes from looks he gives me, voices he uses, or funny dances he does. These things are difficult to communicate via blog, but lately I've also noticed some funny repetitive things to share. He does something new just about every day, but like the rest of us, he has certain activities that work their way into his routine daily. A day spent with BBZ will most likely include the following:
Being told not to hug or kiss him.
A conversation regarding how his daddy works "in the trees." (We have no idea...)
A complete and utter meltdown if you attempt to put him into his car seat. This task is only to be completed by BBZ. ON HIS OWN!
Observing him consume milk, cheddar Sun Chips, and popsicles made from frozen yogurt smoothies.
Pretending to eat plastic ice cream cones with plastic cutlery - and being ordered to return to said activity if you stop too soon.
Watching and trying not to memorize Doggie Ducky Dinger Jamboree.
Falling for his claim of "I made a messy" and then realizing he really just wanted attention and the "messy" consists of one cheerio or pretzel he has gently placed on the floor.
Grover and Elmo dolls acting "not nice" and being placed in time out.
BBZ asking for a "listening sticker" for his chart - a reward he may or may not have earned, but will ask for regardless.
Two tubes of chapstick - purple, then orange. Then purple, then orange...
Conversations about Marco, his friend at school that he tells "no get me in trouble, Marco!"
Being served a piece of wooden birthday cake, participating in conversations about birthday cake or eating actual birthday cake.
Funny, unexpected statements from BBZ like, "Oh hi Daddy, whatcha got there?"
Innocent but loud observations at the park such as "that little girl has two mommys."
Stalling tactics at bedtime that are actually quite clever.
Impromptu statements of "I love you Mommy" that will make it the best day of your life.
