alligators

today, panzer dubbed everything that opens and closes an "alligator."  clothespins, tongs, hairbows, the chip clip -- whatever you can find he says "you open those alligators, mommy?"

big brother fun

today, panzer helped me nic-name Mohs "slimer."

although they are equally deserving of the name after blue ring pops and weeks of allergy-inducing snot fits, p refuses to accept the name for himself, but happily asks me "is this slimer?" whenever he sees Mohs.

rollin' part tres

today, panzer rolled away.

mine

today, panzer got in the habit of asking me "what's this song" for every song that comes on in the car.  he likes the oldies station because he likes to hear that "the turtles" are singing.

p:  mommy, what's this song?
mommy:  this is michael jackson.
p:  this your cal-jackson?
mommy:  no, it's michael jackson.
p:  this yours?
mommy:  no, not mine, michael.

mine is obviously a very popular and meaningful word in our lives...

acrobatics

today, panzer tried his best to bust his ass in the bathtub.

better luck getting mommy to the ER next time!

p.s. nice farmer's tan for march.

the cure

today, panzer was watching the lorax for the 900th consecutive time.  when the once-ler cut down the first tree, p reported:  the lorax sad mommy?

mommy:  yes, baby, he's sad the once-ler cut down the tree.
p:  that teddy bear sad too.  he needs a popsicle.

i agree -- he does need a popsicle.

monkey-ing around.

today, panzer got some new monkey boots from granny todd.  2 of his favorite things -- p is in love.

c'mon ride the train

today, panzer took daddy for a ride on his choo-choo.

it was a short ride in distance -- the caboose was a little loaded down -- long ride in FUN!

pretty

today, panzer told mommy she was pretty.  i documented the moment whether i agreed or not:

dentist part tres

today, panzer went to the dentist.  he is so excited to have leti and dr. montes clean his teeth. :)

and to help of course... we are no stranger to "i do it myself..."
