Well we may not ever have grandkids….

Jk doesn’t watch a ton of TV. About 90% of his television viewing is Nick Jr. and Bob the builder on the iPad. This is a smart parental move on our part, I am beginning to suspect, because the guy really is picking up some strange verbiage. This afternoon we were riding his bike down the sidewalk downtown here on the way to his Poppa’s house. He was waving (ala Bob the Builder—-sort of a pageant wave, really) shouting out to passers by “Hello! Hello! Pleasant afternoon to you all!” and as we passed the bank he waved to a particularly smartly dressed older woman and shouted “Hello! Hello to you madam! Safety First!”

I somehow don’t think he picked that up in Pre-K3

Conversation during a pull-up change

Me:
JK, look, you are 3 and a half. It is time to hunker down and start using the pot. Common, you know you can do it! What's the block, Dude? You are gonna be in first grade, carrying your pull-ups to school with you in your back pack? Am I doing something wrong?
JK:
(Using his Italian Gestures) Mommy! Quit being so worried all the time! I'm gonna be fine!

Little boys fall down then get up, and keep running.
Little girls fall down and sit there stunned at the notion that they aren’t perfect.

Me:
JK, you are being entirely too loud in this house. You need to settle down right this minute, stop knocking things off the table, quit your screaming and stop running. if you do not settle your butt down I will put you in a time out that you will never forget. Are we clear??
JK:

Me:
JK, do you hear me? What did I say? Repeat it back to me.
JK:
Are we clear?
