Updates with superheroes

Asmund and Wystan are really into The Avengers and Spider-Man. We watch the trailers for the movies, as, even the cartoons are a little too violent. I should get Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends.

Here are more updates:

Me: Did you count the superheroes? Asmund: Uh-huh. How many are there? Lots!

Asmund: Me home, you home. (mi casa, su casa)

Carrie found amazing superhero shirts today--The Avengers sans Hulk with Spider-Man. Wystan points at his shirt, puts his hands up, and goes "Eeeerrrrrrrrrrr."

From Carrie:

Asmund just made R2D2 with my canners and sieve. He makes the sieve turn and beep and in addition to this awesomness has informed us that he is Yoda.

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.
