Marvel Heroscape

I pulled out my Marvel Heroscape game for the boys and I to play with, and Asmund likes to mimic how the figures are posed. He uses a pan lid for a shield and makes a fist for Captain America, he clinches both fists for Hulk, and extends his index and pinky for Spider-Man.

Carrie just posted this: Darth Vader and the Hulk are playing "Aad Guys" game. Vader is the daddy and hulk is the baby.

Assorted EC and such

Asmund says to me, "Up you! Up you!" what he means: Pick me up. :) It makes me chuckle. I want to make it the message on my voice mail. Carrie notes, it can also mean "I want to help you."

From Carrie:

Help! I'm being attacked by Penne fingers!!! Wait, that's just Asmund finding new uses for pasta. :)

Flirting with ECing. When Wy comes into the bathroom I take off his diaper and let him play with the Baby Bjorn. So far he's not pee'd into it, but he likes taking the fuzzies off his penis and putting those in the toilet, so that's something.

Just found Wystan crying in the middle of the living room, barelegged and clutching a minibottle of wine he lifted from the fridge.

From Carrie

Asmund has informed me that I don't have to clean because I'm his mommy. If only!

Wystan and I woke (rewoke--not counting the 4-6 bit) at nine this morning to find Asmund covered in pillows and watching Easter Parade. Kid has good taste. :)

Wystan found a pacifier and is walking around chewing on it out of the corner of his mouth looking like an old man with a pipe.

The Adventures of Tintin, by Asmund

Tintin, by Asmund. He told me what he wrote so I could translate on the other side. He wrote about the airplane scene, including the two "bubbles".

Bad guys have no home

Asmund said he didn't want to be home. He says he's a bad guy and bad guys don't have homes.

(Needless to say, I'll correct him on this when he's old enough to understand.)

Buggers and bad guys

Me to Asmund: Are you picking your nose?
A: Yes.
Me: Are you eating your buggers?
A: Yes.
Me: Why?
A: Cause 'ee 'ad guy.
Me: So...bad guys eat their buggers?
A: Yes.

Updates March 2012

Wystan is helping Dennis fix the vacuum cleaner. It's pretty adorable.

Asmund had red poop this morning from eating beets. He just went in to the bathroom telling me that this time he would have cheese poop, green poop, or blue poop.

Asmund wanted to watch I Love Lucy. Now he's going around the house saying "Lucy, Lucy, Lucy."

Our to do list today includes making felt crowns and masks, picking bedroom/buffet paint and keeping Wystan from dive bombing off whatever new piece of furniture he decides to climb.

Asmund has changed into clothes of his choice--large train shirt, two different doggy socks, and Thomas the train undies on his head.

Wystan is playing peek-a-boo. While nursing. Not with me, no. With my boob. hehe

Wystan is still rear facing. I couldn't wait to turn Asmund's seat around, but that was just because society has made it this big event. At first it felt wierd to have Wy RF, even though I knew about the safety issues but now I think he likes it better--facing Asmund enables him to play (and fight) with his brother!

Asmund knows how to count-one, two, three, LOTS!
