A new topic for my old blog. My neice is always asking "What funny things did A do recently"? And I always forget. So, now I'm going to keep track of them. Enjoy!

Merrily, Merrily, Merrily

A likes to sing sometimes. I read somewhere once that one way to get your child to wash their hands for a long enough period of time is to have them sing "Row, Row, Row your boat" while they are washing up. I tried teaching A this, and this is now what he sings while washing his hands:
"Row, row, row your boat. Gently stream. Merry, merry, christmas everyone!"

Chocolate

Last summer, when my sister J was visiting from Arizona, we went to the Dairy Queen by our house. J asked A what kind of ice-cream he wanted. He said: "I don't like brown ice-cream." J said: "Really? But, brown ice-cream is chocolate ice-cream!" A stared at J and then said, incredulously: "Brown is chocolate?!!" Now, A will only eat "brown" ice-cream.

A funny side-note: A's pronunciation of chocolate is "chlocolate". That makes the story even cuter!
