Conversations with the Caboose
"Let's get our shoes on, Caboose." I said, "We're getting ready to go."
"Shoes on!" His little voice pipes up happily.
"Yes, we are going to the grocery store."
"NOOOOO" He screeches angrily, "I GO POST OFFICE."
**************************************************
After rinsing his hair in the tub, I give the usual warning. "Okay, Caboose, five more minutes".
"NOOOOOO", he sceams, "No fy mo' minutes, NO NO NO fy mo' minutes."
"Hey," I shout back, "I could get you out now. You can play five more minutes or get out right now."
He quiets down and starts to play with his cups and fish.
After a few minutes, I announce it is time to get out of the tub.
Sweetly, he looks up at me, "Fy mo' minutes."
*********************************************************
"Moooooooommmmmy" I hear him calling from the bedroom.
"Whaaaaaaat?" I call back.
"HEEEEELLLLLLP."
I quickly make my way back to his bedroom only to find that he has climbed up the bunkbeds to the top bunk. He cannot climb back down. I grab him and bring him down to the floor.
"You stay down." I scold him, "That is dangerous. You could fall and go boom."
He laughs and makes his way to the ladder and proceeds to crawl back up.
"Caboose!" I scold again and grab him. "You stay down."
"NOOOOO." He screams, "No stay down. NOOOOO stay down." I gently set him on the floor where he twists and kicks and does his best devil-mojo fit, all the while screaming.
"Caboose!" I say sternly (using his middle name, of course).
As usual, he immediately stops his fit and looks at me, "What?"
*****************************************************************
So - can you tell he is turning TWO tomorrow?

All the Grandmas better close their eyes......
We have created an adrenaline junkie....
Dave says "Do you want to bungee jump?"
The Caboose responds happily, "Bungee jump!"
I have thirty more gray hairs.
********************************************************************
"Again, Daddy, Again!"
I figure my hair will be full gray by next Saturday.
