It only took forever, plenty of tears, countless accidents, and a wide variety of battles. But we pulled through. We did it. Now, to teach him the following phrase:
“I wipe my own ass.”
Because grazing the toilet paper over your buttcheeks doesn’t really guarantee a nice, clean outcome after taking a dump. So for now… I still help him wipe his ass.
BUT STILL ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED
We took Diego to a hibachi grill restaurant for the first time yesterday. While watching the show on the other tables, he had his jaw dropped and he was super psyched. Once the cook arrived to ours…he was excited. Until the cook diced up the onion volcano. Diego did not approve of the onion volcano being demolished. After that, he took a personal grudge against the cook and refused to enjoy the rest of the show. Then we strolled around, got some coffee and he shared some chocolate yogurt with his daddy, and of course he started dancing and singing “Jingle Bell Rock” in front of everyone, putting up quite an adorable show.
Mommy bragging moment done.
Had no idea I had watched Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along in front of Diego.. He’s playing with his toy tools, and all of a sudden he shouts to one of his toys “I’ll fix it with my hammer! And by hammer, I mean my pants!”
He didn’t get it quite right, and I’m glad he didn’t. My jaw could not have dropped any lower.
His dad put him up to this. I can feel it.
Diego again! This time with his face full of ketchup from devouring hot dogs at the Halloweenie Roast party. He had a blast, and he kept telling everybody “I got this! I’m the Doctor!” whenever he went to grab some candy. Perfect Halloween this year! And he scored a huge bag of sweet sugary loots.
Hope you all enjoy yours!
Diego really enjoys his new fluffy bear hat and blue Dalek. Guess who’s gunna be dressed up as the Tenth Doctor for Halloween?
That cute lil guy.
Diego, what are you up to?
“Swimming.”
Oh, ok.
“I’m a mermaid in the sea.”
Really? So am I.
“I speak fish. Look. Blublublublurgblurg”
..and at this point I just cracked up
Clearly, my parenting skills are top percentage.
