Potty Training

So I was sitting on the couch today knitting and I told Hubby "I really have to pee." HE looks at me and says "the bathroom is the first door on the left." WE both start laughing. Not long after Bugaboo was potty trained he would walk up to us and ask "Excuse me. Do you have a restroom?" Sometimes he would even run around the house to look for us to ask this question. I think it started when we were out in public and of course little bladder boy decides he must urinate that then. He would even ask people at restaurants and stores regardless if he needed one or not. Our boy always good for a laugh.

The Jedi Returns

So today Bug bought a "lifesaver" with his allowance. So the battle began between Obie one Cannoli and Dark Vader. It was a good thing that Obi One had R2B2 on his side to help. Obi one also convinced the droids to help him. "Roger, Roger". I swear my boy has the best imagination.

Star Wars

WE took Bug to see the new star wars movie last weekend. Being a huge star wars fan myself and having the original action figures stored neatly in my Darth Vader case I thought it was only necessary for Bug get to learn about Star Wars. He actually enjoyed the movie. When we came home he decided that he wanted to play "Star Wars" So in true Bug form imagination took over. Wielding a pretend "lifesaver" jumping around the living room fighting "Obie one Cannoli". He was handing out pretend "lifesavers" to hubby and I to play as well. So hub decided that his "lifesaver" was going to be wintogreen flavor. Because after you can only get them from Michigan.
Side note about lifesavers- 10 years ago while staying in Michigan with Hubs family crazy Uncle Larry told us the truth about lifesavers. We were in his pick up truck getting ready to go to work when he stopped at a gas station and bought 2 large bags of lifesavers. one was Wint-o-Green and the other Pep-O-Mint. He held up the bag of Wint-O-Green and said "You know you can only get these in Michigan" I just looked at him with awe. I said "They are lifesavers for God sakes!! You can get them anywhere." HE told me that Wintergreen only grew in Michigan and that is how they get the lifesavers. Well OK then. So the wintogreen joke was born
