jesus, it's been nearly two years since i've done this. looked through and realized how much i'd forgotten. for memory:
bennett is nearing four. i am really not ready to admit that he is no longer a baby. i wish i would have enjoyed those squishy mushy years more.
bennett now loves sunflowers, recently planted some wants to be a dolphin when he grows up constantly asks questions nearly never wants to be indoors does not transition well, he's always, "not ready" is oh so bossy has a slight obsession with condoleezza rice, makes up songs about her, frequently sings them. has more than a slight obsession with health food. critiques my food choices, well everyone's. examples:
preschool lesson on food identification, presented with a picture of a glass of soda: His teacher: "What is this a picture of?" Bennett: "Oh, that's wine. Wine is a sometimes food. We only drink it sometimes." at least he doesn't know what soda is.
Bennett: "Mommy, what are yo-go's?" Me: "I don't know." Bennett: "They are junk food and if you ever buy them for me I will throw them in the trash." Me: "OK"
Bennett: "Don't eat that. It has RED40 in it."
he's just so bennett.

well now im almost two and basically know all there is to know. ive been practicing swimming and have nearly perfected the tuck and sink. i already know three whole letters: a, b, and s. im working on t and c. im really getting the hang of tantrum throwing, toy flinging, food wasting, house messing, feet stomping, nap avoiding, car-seat boycotting, and mommy ignoring. i have quite a few catch phrases im working on right now:
not nice! “na nice!” no no! “na no!” come on! “tome on!” why’d you do that? “y’d you do dat?” don’t do that! “don do dat!” you better run me to the potty now or im going on the floor “poo poo pee pee!” everything in the world belongs to me, including what you have in your hand “dat mine!”
my mommy buys industrial sized bottles of aspirin.

12:24 am - my day today
|
not much going on in the world of me. just kidding. today i woke up around 8 and had a serious conversation with stitch for a while. were working on manners (hes just way too polite for an abomination). my mommy gave me a raison granola bar and I spent twenty minutes sucking out all of the raisons. i saved the granola part for her. after breakfast i spent another twenty minutes or so perfecting my growl. then i went to daycare. some kid tried to bite me when i first got there (boy did my growling skills come in handy). i spent most of my time there throwing balls and running around in circles. mommy finally remembered me and came back. she gave me a cookie. i threw it on the floor cause i was feeling a little extra hungry and was hoping some ants might crawl on it. we drove home. i serenaded mommy the whole way (ive been told i have a lovely singing voice by quite a few respectable music connoisseurs). mommy let me sit on the potty. its one of my favorite places in the house. a chair equipped with swirlly water and plenty of toilet paper to snack on just an arm length away, genius. so anyway me and gracie thought of quite possibly the best game ever. you crawl around on the floor and pick up every speck of everything. crumbs. paper bits. dog fluff. my personal favorite is mystery stuff i term ‘grime’. tastes different every time. mommy finally got the hint and fixed me dinner. tacos. who feeds tacos to a baby? im pretty sure those parenting magazines i chew on in the doctors office would disapprove. for some reason mommy insisted on giving me a bath right after dinner. gracie joined me. we always help mommy by dumping as much water onto the floor as possible, we know the rugs get thirsty. after my bath i grooved to my spongebob cd for a while and chased gracie around the house. then i threw up on the floor. then i poked it. then mommy decided it was time for me to go to bed.
current mood: drained current music: stitch snoring

cameron was so wrong about the bunny. i got runny babbit, a cow pluffie (i havent decided on a name but i was thinking anton or joe), and best of all tons of stringy green stuff.
cameron got nothing : )
heres my easter picture, theres even one with me and the bunny in my photobucket. if you look closely in his mouth you can see that he ate someone. wonder if he used ketchup?

4:06 pm - influenza then out flew enza-haha
|
im steaming! yesterday, i had to get shots and the dumb "nurse" really pissed me off. i overlooked the fact that i had to wait for two hours in a room full of fat women wearing kenny chesney t-shirts screaming at their whiny children who were running around with no shoes on. i was very patient and did not cry once. i overlooked the fact that when the nurse finally called for me she pronounced my name benettey. benettey? i overlooked the fact that she assumed i was there for my four month shots. im sixth months old- sheesh! i didnt even cry when she roughly gave me one shot after another-three all together. but when i looked down at my legs and saw sparkly flowered band-aids i flipped. i am a BOY. what is wrong with people. youd think a person in the medical field would at least be semi-familiar with human anatomy.
on the up side of things im pretty sure ill mentally qualify for a nursing position in just a few short years.
