Copy Cat

Thursday August 21st, 2008
So my mom was watching Austin and told me this story. The cat at my parents house does have an actually name although everyone just calls him "Kitty". So Kitty was up on the bathroom counter getting a drink from the sink faucet (spoiled cat). Austin grabs my mom and drags her to the bathroom and points up to the sink. Thinking that he wanted to wash his hands she turns on the water and lifts him up. He then proceeds to get a drink for himself out of the sink faucet. So my question is to Kitty--"have you ever considered using the potty chair?"

I Think My Son Is Addicted......

not to something understandable like candy, or ice-cream, or his mother :) .... but to raisins. That's right RAISINS!!! He always gets excited when I pull out the little red raisin box....in the car, with his lunch, as a snack. Anytime is a good time for raisins according to him. But now I am starting to wonder if it becoming an obsession. For example: a few days ago as I was getting Austin ready for nap time I grabbed a box of raisins and let him eat them in bed while I read him a few books. Well he became rather upset when they were gone and cried until I brought him back into the kitchen to get another box. Then today after church he was given a sucker which he was very much enjoying. But when it started getting all over his hands and pants I threw it away. He started to whine so I quickly pulled out the box of raisins I had in my Sunday bag and there was no more fuss from him. Seriously, I think if given the choice he might choose the raisins over a candybar (no I haven't tried that yet--at least raisins are somewhat healthy right?) Although I will say that I do have to be careful and control this crazy addiction because as all you moms out there know: What goes in.....(I'll let you fill in the rest).
