Old McDonald had a...






We went to Granny and Grandad's hoping to see the baby squirrels. Damn squirrels weren't out again tonight. We'll try again tomorrow. But, while we were there, I took some pics of the kids in Granny's flower garden. Her flowers are just starting to bloom and are so pretty.

I cracked up driving home tonight. Cooper wanted to sing the Chipmunk Song (from Alvin and the Chipmunks), but I don't know the words. When I told him he needed to pick a different song, he said he wanted to sing Old McDonald. I was hopeful that we could sing the original version, but I also know that lately he's been singing "Old McDonald had a butt, eieio". I'm not sure who taught him that version, but he thinks it's hilarious. So, we're singing along and I pause when we get to the part where you fill in the animal, and he yells "butt"! So, we've progressed from "Old McDonald had a butt" to "Old McDonald had a farm, eieio, and on this farm he had a butt". Where does a two year old come up with this stuff? He proceeded to shout that Old McDonald had to pee, and Old McDonald had to poop, and he yelled something about Old McDonald's pecker. Again, where does he come up with this stuff? And, why does he think it's so funny?

Evan has started saying a word here and there - dog, dada, Per (that's Cooper in baby talk), and ball. Hopefully she doesn't learn the word "butt" any time soon.
