Haiku about 2 year molars

Two year molars vile,
Evokes distemper in Nate,
Wide awake mommy.

Graham the COMEDIAN

Graham has become quite a comedian. He loves to make up jokes...whether or not they are even funny... or make sense that is. He loves knock knock jokes and making up silly songs. His songs are hilarious because he takes real songs or their melodies and adds words or totally makes up a new song. Funniest thing is he is so proud and tickled with himself. Sometimes he'll say a familiar joke or sing a familiar song and add a "prompt" of something he wants.

Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Car!
Car who?
Car speeding down the road, whoa whoa...crash!

Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Water!
Water who?
Water-you doing over there? heee heee

I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur,
Want my mom pee on 'da floor!
(that makes him crack up)

I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur,
Want my mommy let me play 'da computer?
(sneaky!)

How many lines does a diagonal line have?
(draws shape with his finger in the air)
ONE!!!
(he is a shape freak! he knows things like parallelogram!)

This is a coat hanger.
It is like a triangle
(throws it to the side and puts his hands out, shrugs his shoulders)
OR....NOTHING!

All the Dora and Diego...



watching came in handy. Or Da Da and Go Go as Nathan says. No, they teach more than how to say numbers, letters, and colors in Spanish. Nathan got a turn and I promptly told everyone to step back! Graham was T'd off because he did not win.

The Sneaky Reasoner

The other day I was working on the computer. Well, here comes Graham with a fake "Hobbs" kind of grin that reminds me so much of his dad and grandpa it is sick. lol (grin seen in pic) I knew he wanted something and I knew it was probably involving me getting off the computer so he can get on it.

Graham: Hey Mom... Hey Mom!
(shit-eating grin and blinking)
Me: Hey!
Graham: I want to play on the computer.
(giggling and wiggling)
Me: No, you have been playing your VSmile all day.
Graham: I play the computer everyday!
Me: No you do not. Graham you have been playing VSmile!
Graham: That is different!!!
Me: What!?!?!?
Graham: I want a drink. I want something to eat...
Me: What do you want?
Graham: I do not know. Hmmm. Think think think...
Me: Good try Graham, you just want me up so you can get on the computer.
Graham: Yes.

He has never said that before... He gets more and more expressive everyday.

Graham's Raspberry

The past weekend we went to our cousin Sierra and Chloe's Birthday Party in Creedmoor. It could not have been hotter. They had a small inflatable water slide for the kids. Once Graham got up there and figured out how to get past the water jets shooting water in his face, he went down. That was his 1st and last trip down...

Today, a week later... I was showing him the pics I took.

Graham: Look, there is the water slide!
Me: Did you have fun on it?
Graham: Yes, but I hurt my arm.
(twists his arm the side points)
Me: You got hurt!?
Graham: Yes, I got a RASPBERRY!
