Imagination

Henry's been playing with Noah and Sally for about a half hour now. Chatter back and forth constantly. Lots of stuff about going to school, vacuuming, and leaving for work.

Then there was a mashup of "Pants on the Ground" and "Stop and Go." "STop and go, stop and go, looking like a fool with your stop and go!" And then a "Wham, bam, thank you ma'am!" thrown in there for good measure.

Catching up on stories

Today Henry said, "I have your clo'!" He was referring to my shirt, and was using the singular form of what he thought was "clothes."

Yesterday, Henry said, "Someday *I'm* going to be a daddy!" And I agreed with him, and he was thoughtful for a bit, and then he said, "And then Daddy will be Henry!" Like he thought there was only one daddy in the world. <3

The other day we were taking a walk, and we walked past a "For Sale" sign. Henry asked what it was and I said it meant that the house was for sale. He thought for a bit and said, "Just like Caps for Sale!"

Future Doctor

Yesterday, we sitting on the couch, reading books together. Every so often he gets really interested in my tummy and Baby Charlie being in there, and will ask lots of questions about it. This time, he asked me if I could "open my tummy" (which was his way of asking if I can pull my shirt up so he could see it). So I did, and he got this old pair of headphones that he likes to play with, and put them on his ears. Then he pretended to squeeze something, and moved the headphone plug all around my stomach, and then made this "woosh woosh woosh" sound. He was totally pretending to hear the baby's heartbeat, like the doctor does during my checkups. So adorable. Then, he said, "I need a napkin!" and took off his sock (?) and pretended to wipe all the goo off, just like Dr. S. does. It was so cute. He does love hearing the heartbeat when we go to my checkups, but it's amazing how many details kids pick up on, like the goo and the Kleenex.

Miah took this video the other day that I'll have to post on here soon. He found Henry in his bedroom, on the rocking chair, with the Boppy around his waist and his Baby Charlie doll swaddled in his Lovey, gently rocking it back and forth. Just out of the blue. Aw. He's such a good kid.

Funnies

This morning, Henry was monkeying around on the couch/chair combination and said, "Watch me do something interesting!" :)

A few weeks ago we were getting out of the shower, and he looked at me for a little bit and then asked, "Woah, those your breastes Mama?"


--

And speaking of such, he's constantly talking about "pee pees" and "aginuses." "You push your aginus down when you go potty mama?" And the other day, also after a shower, he asked, "You got hair on your bommom, mama?" Yikes.

Miah said that Henry asked, when they were reading "Owl At Home," whether the outlines of Owl's footprints under the covers were "Frog and Toad's bommoms?"
