❤ I Have A Girlfriend Mama ❤

Shamrock Shuffle Chicago
4.10.11




Kaleb has announced to everyone that he has a girlfriend, and after only two weeks at his new school! Her name is Nikki and she has a ponytail and hair color like Nana Sandy. Oh, and I almost forgot...wears Mickey Mouse earrings that are "really cool". So I asked him why she was his girlfriend..."because she picks up my toys and is pretty". Of course, how silly of me to even ask!!

This has been just the beginning of our interest in girls and princesses.  At the grocery store when asked to pick out why kind of yogurt he wanted the cars or the Trix bunny, he replied "its Cinderelli, I want the Cinderelli daddy". I just smiled and Brian didn't even flinch putting it in the cart.  The very next day he offered his yogurt to his older male cousin and was super excited to show him "Cinderelli", as he calls her, on the yogurt cup.  
This week we've watched Pocahontas and Tinkerbell.  Everything was great until he came running into the kitchen with tears streaming down his face because one of the fairies hit Tinkerbell on the head and didn't say she was sorry.  I'm not sure why, but it seems he's become much more sensitive toward female characters than he does male characters.  Our typical day is immersed with the Super Hero Squad, Transformers, Cars, and Curious George and so on, as he pretends to karate kick everything in sight, talk with his manly voice, and use his hilarious facial expressions acting out scenes.  But not once has he cried or gotten upset about one of those characters being mean.  Instead, he acts out just like the characters and behaves horribly.  So I put in the Disney movies to take a break from the madness and now I'm faced with a new problem. What to do, what to do...

❤ Down By The Bayou ❤

Rain, Rain Go Away
4.4.11


We made it to our new home and were loving it so far.  Sunday night after everyone had left we saw our first storm cross the river, in which, we all sat outside to watch before the rain started...what a show!
The next day was a rainy one and therefore, Kaleb decided to watch a movie.  His choice, Princess and the Frog. We spent the rest of the day singing and dancing to Down by the Bayou.  I think were going to really like living on the river.
