Parent and Child

I took the kids to the pediatrician for their annual checkups and was riffling through the magazines while we waited in the examining room. As soon as I muttered under my breath that there wasn't much besides back issues of Parent and Child, Nate got all excited. He was frantic to see an issue and then hugely disappointed that there were no pictures of parrots and children. Bummer, Nate.

@jyankee: Nate calls those "heckle-opters".

Yeah, so here's the rhetorical question of the day....would all those men still read Playboy for their "interesting articles" if there weren't all those pretty pictures in it????

For the longest time Liv used to call her bathing suit her "bailing suit."

And when she was a baby, she called Bing "Tit." (It sort of sounds like her real name in an odd way...) But, she would be holding her arms out to her and calling, "Tit! Tit!!"

Poor Nate. I'd rather read about parrot and child too....

Oh hee hee hee.
Sorry, Nate, but I laughed out loud at this.

when Christopher gave up the last of his baby-isms I was very sad...up until he was 6 or so, when he was really tired, he would say "Mommy, I carry you." when he didn't want to walk.
