baby food

today, panzer followed the spoon of mushed carrots and baby cereal from the bowl to mohs' mouth.  one time.  once i gave him a bite -- he was happy to let his brother enjoy the mush.

under his close supervision, of course.

punk rock

today, the muppet movie soundtrack ended and we continued right into my alkaline trio CD.  which panzer informed me, loudly and multiple times, was LOUD.  but once we agreed on that, he seemed to enjoy it :)

fa la la la la

p loves the muppet movie soundtrack. and today, panzer started singing along... sort of.  i heard him talking super softly in the back seat, repeating the words like a back-up singer.

kermit:  is there more i could have said?
P:  have said.
kermit:  now they're only pictures in my head.
P:  picture.  head.
kermit:  that's why my green is feeling grey.
P:  green.  grey.
kermit:  sometimes even frogs have rainy days.
P:  frog.  rain.  day.

rat care

today, panzer fed his rat a bottle.

he's getting more and more interested in taking care of things and mimicking mommy and daddy, which is unbelievably cute.

shorts

today, panzer through a fit over wearing shorts.  where the heck does that come from?  i, of course, sent him to the babysitter in what amounts to a singlet and water shoes.  lookin' good babe.

i sit, i eat, i carrot

today, panzer sat in the fridge and gnawed on a carrot.  

um, ok, as long as you're quiet.

boogies

today, panzer handed me a booger.

at least he said "eeeeeew" when he did it...

mountain

today, panzer climbed a mountain!

at least that's what we told him he was doing to keep him going ... it only partially worked.  we got our labor day exercise carrying him back up.  (he says "mountain" and "tent" very clearly, thanks to his "great outdoors" signing time video.)

rainbow

today, panzer saw his first rainbow.  he called it a "beat-bow" but signed it correctly, and then looked for it again the next time we were outside.

favorite color

today, panzer correctly identified a toy as orange.

fitting, as he is preparing to celebrate the 2012 clemson tigers football opener today!
