sweep

today, panzer insisted on having a "turn" with the broom.

i am okay with that as long as he sticks with the long thin clean-er end...

applause

today, panzer clapped wildly for his mommy after she completed her dance video game routine.

<3

aaaa-choo!

today, panzer mocked my sneeze. except it instead of a sneeze, it sounded like he was hocking the biggest loogie ever -- still, i got the point.

we thought that P's first words might be "bless you," because he hears it so much as i sneeze at least 40 times per day. instead, he just makes fun of me.

this was not as bad as thanksgiving though, when uncle AJ had incurable hiccups. P sat right next to him and made a little squeak everytime uncle AJ did, laughing of course.

ho ho ho

today, panzer woke up at 5 AM to see if santa came -- taking after auntie kimmy. :\

thereafter, he was far more interested in bubble wrap, pine needles collecting on the tile, and the big bag of garbage wrapping paper than any of santa's goodies.

(here, you see him sneaking off from the action and climbing onto the couch to reclaim the bubble wrap.)

heil panzer

today, panzer grew his first rock mustache... a combination of runny nose in the chilly air and sticking his face in the sand.

charlie brown

panzer always looks like charlie brown, with his big round head and little mullet-y curls. but today, panzer looks even more like charlie brown in his yellow t-shirt.

who walks in the classroom, cool and slow? who calls the english teacher daddy-o?

joel osteen

today, panzer went to open mic night at the bar @ stromboli's and made friends with grizzlied old men in various stages of disarray. panzer makes friends everywhere, with everyone. it is one of the things i love best about him. and for this reason, aaron thinks he's destined to be a religious leader.

moonwalk

today, panzer discovered how to walk backwards. he is tottling around backwards until he runs into something. then he laughs and looks surprised and takes off full speed ahead!

canned goods

today, panzer refused to eat his breakfast until i placed an unopened can of creamed corn on his tray.

big brother

today, panzer found out he's going to be big brother to a little brother ca. may 2012.
