JulzHOLLA is having her third girl. They are so happy to have a healthy baby. I think they kind of want to know what it might be like to have a boy. So, JulzHOLLA, this one's for you.
My girl, Nikki the cakemaking diva, she's pregnant with her third as well. She has two girls, and although she wouldn't let me attend the sonogram, she did let me know she's having a boy! So, Nikki, this one's to uh, warn you...
Up to this point, having a boy has been so fun. All the kid needs is sports and cars. But now that they are six, they are both very perceptive, and Max particularly idolizes Ricardo. I guess in doing so, he watches his every move. Kids see all, hear all, and regurgitate all.
We were at the dinner table last night. Max lifted up his left-butt cheek, made a little grimmace, and farted. The pride and joy in his face that a) he just farted on cue and b) that he just mimicked his precious idol. Dear Lord. Even more alarming was that Ricardo was actually shocked that Max did it. A second later, Ricardo was beaming with pride. Then he caught my glance of "do not encourage this". And then was quick to tell Max, "Uh, nice one, but let's not do that at the table." I could swear that he muttered under his breath when I wasn't looking, "Atleast not while you're mom is around".
I taught Max how to cite the 80's campaign against drugs: "I learned it from YOU dad, I learned it from YOU!"
Have fun with that Nikki.
That's how I roll.
While we don't do the cheek lifting thing...it can get pretty active around our house too! I guess there is pride in the product, but not the presentation! I'll leave that to the boys!
