Whose present?

We finally went shopping for Mary Elizabeth's birthday present. Charles and I got her Barbie Lipgloss in a cell phone shaped container and a pack of Barbie nail polishes. We also picked up Barbie's baby sister doll with orange lion ears, an orange dress and boots. Charles wanted to see it and held it all the way home and is currently cuddled with it (in the box) on the sofa.  He thinks it is small and cute. Hopefully he is over it by the time we go to South Carolina so we can give it to her.

Pirate, Argh!

I selected an outfit for Charles to wear today, and it had a nautical wheel on the front pocket. Charles spotted it and said, "Pirate?" I said, " Yes, it is the wheel to a ship." His response, "Argh!" Then he was exceptionally pleased to find there is a matching hat. Photo op!

Mickey & Minnie Mouse

I put on my Minnie Mouse t-shirt, so Charles asked to put on his Mickey Mouse t-shirt. As soon as he was dressed, he grabbed my hand and said, "Come on, Minnie." I replied, "Ok, Mickey!"  We came downstairs to get breakfast. I opened up the cabinet with the vitamins. He asked, "What's that, Minnie?" Then, "Thank you, Minnie!" when I gave him his vitamin.  He said, "Hold me, Minnie." Everything is ended with Minnie, and I call him Mickey right back. It's cute!

Kissing fool!

Charles has apparently watched too many kissing scenes because he is really into kissing at the moment. He has always given sweet little kisses, but recently he has gone for the cheek squishing, open fish mouth kisses. Daddy and I can't help but giggle when he tries to attack us, but we also squirm our lips away or purse them really tight to avoid such a bizarre (yet sweetly funny) full-on kiss.
