Chicken is such a boy. Such a two year old boy, now.
He loves attention and praise for his skills. Something we hear a lot of from him is "Wat dis!!!" (watch this!!). He wants you to watch him while he runs, throws, eats, jumps.....pretty much anything that he thinks is pretty cool. We hear it over and over....and over. It's usually followed up with "Yee dat??" (Did you see that?). He'll keep asking until you acknowledge that you saw what he did.
Yesterday morning though, it shone through that he has a big sister and is in touch with his feminine side. He woke up in a rage at 4:45 AM demanding to watch "Yawbewwy Yort-cake" (Strawberry Shortcake) and to eat chicken nuggets. I was not a happy mommy--it was a HUGE fit and TOO early. So I am saving this mostly for revenge 14 years from now when he brings home his first date--I'll remember bring up how much he loved My Little Ponies and "Yawbewwy Cake".
Oh noodles.
"Edee" and "Chicken" are nicknames for my two little rascals. The names originated from how my daughter would pronounce both her own and little brother's name when she first started talking. They've stuck. Chicken may live to regret that someday....
