Weekly Update

Another week with no pictures...hopefully I will remedy that situation soon.

Lots of talking this week - new phrases abound. It is absolutely hilarious to hear Henry use some phrases I must use frequently but never really paid attention to. He's big into saying "My have an idea!" (he uses 'my' in place of 'I' a lot.) Another one I hear a lot is "maybe so," which cracks me up. I didn't realize how often I say that but apparently I do. The one that got me tonight was "That's fine." Not particulaly amusing under normal circumstances but that's what I say to him when he is doing something he thinks will annoy me or he's not allowed to do. For example, if he's banging something on the floor and making a lot of noise he'll look at me and say "My doing this..." and then do it again with a look that says, "go ahead, tell me to stop." Then I'll say "that's fine" and ignore him which makes him stop much faster than if I get upset about it. Well, tonight we were having a battle about bed. He was standing up by his bed and I told him to either get into bed or he could sit on my lap in the rocking chair. He looked at me, said "that's fine" and stayed right where he was. I'm not sure I have ever felt the urge to laugh while being so frustrated before.

We went to Benihana last night for dinner - Henry loved it. Had an absolute blast...great place to take kids...too bad it's so expensive!
Tomorrow is Yo Gabba Gabba. Henry is SO excited. The very first thing he said to be this morning, all groggy and still half asleep was "Go to Yo Gabba Gabba right now!" When I told him the show wasn't until tomorrow and they wouldn't be open now, he said "maybe so." :) Can't wait to see what he thinks of the show tomorrow!
