Griffin is learning more and more each day and totally makes me laugh all the time. Even when he is grumpy. Recently he wanted to take a bath after I had already given him a bath (which he screamed all the way through) and I didn't want to let him take another one. He was being quite a bear and hitting me and standing there naked and wet and refusing to let me put pajamas on him. He ended up telling me that he wasn't my friend anymore and he wanted to talk to Daddy. As soon as I went to call Todd he changed his mind and decided we were friends again and all was well.
Another time, I wouldn't let him bring his toy into his school to put in his cubby because I knew he would lose it like he has before. He wasn't too happy with me so he says, "I DO NOT have my happy face on right now". I was trying hard not to laugh but instead told him that it is ok that he wasn't happy but that sometimes we don't always like the things we have to do and we don't always get what we want. Hopefully that sinks in!
One night recently he also wanted to put some lego thing together. I told him he could save it for when we saw Patrick. The next morning he asked again and I told him that he couldn't do it yet because we were going to school and we could do it that night to which he responded, "but mommy, yesternight you told me that Pachick would help me". How funny is that? YESTERNIGHT is now my new word for last night of course!
His latest and most helpful phrase is how he expresses that he is hungry. It is really cute but the only problem is that he usually waits until we are settled in bed with a book ready to go to sleep for the night and it is usually after he didn't eat his whole dinner. When he is hungry now he says, "mommy, my tummy says food". That will now be my phrase for when I am hungry!
The coolest thing though is that I am reading the Twilight book and am addicted to it. The other night he came up to me and said that the word Apple starts with A because he saw the hands holding the apple on the front of the book. It's good to know that the money we put into pre-school is worthwhile! LOL!
