Uhhhh....what?
Well, we survived another birthday/holiday. Barely. I think Aidan's logged enough highway miles now to qualify for an upgrade in Dad's Limo Service; each set of grandparents is 2.5 hours away (in opposite directions, of course) so we've been going a lot lately. And the whole time had been full of presents for the little guy; he got one from daycare first, then we gave him half of our presents on his birthday (the though was to give him the other half at Grandma and Pappy's house but of course, we forgot to bring them....more on that in a minute), then he got presents from one half of the family, then we came home and gave him the other half of his presents, then he got presents from the OTHER side of the family. Pretty soon, it seemed like his presents were giving him presents.
This does not bode well for Christmas.
Of course, during all this travel he was suffering from some unknown cold/sinus thing with really nebulous symptoms......which meant that he was a bit touchier than normal, and far more snot-filled. Add that to the fact that someone must have told him he was two and should be a demon now, and you get one interesting week. Vacation my ass, this was like a combination Deathrace 2000, marathon, and bomb squad exercise.
Anyway, now that he's two he's definitely starting to make his opinions known, and his displeasure known louder. In between the two are some pretty hilarious things coming out of his mouth. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a short list of Aidan's Most Memorable Quotes.
"Hot Tamale!" (Pappy told him that to keep him away from the stove)
(sticks one finger in the air) "Hold on, I be right back"
"Fart" (Thanks to the wife. Of course, this one is niiiiice and clear.)
"Yo Baby!" (Thanks to my Dad.....I assume at some point this will get me slapped.)
"Ley Moley" (He's trying to mimic me saying 'Holy Moley'... I still have yet to teach him 'great googily-moogily', a personal fave)
"Daddy! Cheesedick!" (He actually says cheese stick but enunciation is not really his strong point yet).
Ah, toddlerhood. Gotta love it.
