Tonight we took pnut to see a movie in a real theatre.  Last time we tried to take him to see a movie, he got really cranky and we had to leave the theatre.  This time though he sat through half of the movie and then went to sleep.  It was his nap time when we went to the movie but I thought he could last through the whole thing.  I suppose I thought wrong.  We saw the movie, Happy Feet.  He really like the dancing penguins.  He was laughing, singing, and dancing in his chair to the music.  They need to make an Elmo movie.  I know he’d sit through that whole movie and not go to sleep.  He loves Elmo.

Last night, pnut and I had a date night complete with a good movie [”The Break Up”; granted not a kid movie but still pnut enjoyed the time with his mommy and mommy loved the movie] and some homemade popcorn [pnuts favorite snack food]. Pnut loves popcorn and he loves to watch mommy make it in her old timey lookin’ popcorn stand/maker. We found these old timey popcorn boxes at Target a couple weeks ago for a dollar! They are great! Pnut loves eating out of them. So much fun!

Pnut is loving learning how to get dressed. He will sit and play for hours trying to put pants on or shirts on. He can put his pull-up on with a little help from me. He wears our shoes throughout the house. And loves Daddy’s hats.

Who knew you could have sooooo much fun with a cup and your voice? Pnut takes these little snack cups out of the “pnut drawer” and runs around the house humming, talking, and singing into these cups. “They make my voice sound funny, mommy!” Tons of fun.

Pnut,

I need to make your chore chart up again. You are being such a good helper lately. You will help me with the laundry by loading the dryer. You help me with the dishes by handing me the clean ones so I don’t have to bend over. And you go and put your toys in your room when I tell you to. Such a big helper. Thank you!

You are very fascinated with your belly button and other peoples as well. You haven’t grasped the fact that mommy has a baby in her tummy, yet. In fact, you think that my belly button IS the baby. You lift my shirt, point at the belly button and say “Baby!” then lift your shirt and point to your belly button and say “BABY!”. You are just too funny!

Happy Turkey Day from the P-nut.

How does a toddler celebrate turkey day, why by putting underwear on his head and running around the house, that’s how! Pnut was trying to be a big helper in the kitchen today, while mommy was trying to cook her first thanksgiving dinner. He loved making the homemade whipped cream. He licked the bowl, beaters, and rubber spatula completely clean and then wanted some more! Pnut no longer likes cranberry sauce. Last thanksgiving he couldn’t get enough of the stuff. He ate practically a whole can by himself. This year, not so much, he finally realized that it is kinda tart. All he really wanted to eat were grapes and turkey. At least he ate some meat! I did manage to get some corn in him and a few green beans. We have so much leftover that I’m sorry to say, my dear pnut, but you better learn to like what we had, because you will be seeing it again.

Dancin’ Toddler

P-nut LOVES to dance. During the day I usually just play the radio and whenever one of the songs comes on that he loves he immediately breaks out into dance. As of late he has even started to sing along with the radio. I recorded the singing with my camcorder but am unable to upload it to my computer at this time but I did get a video of him dancing with my digital camera. There is no sound in the video but you can check out his smooth moves…
