When Harry woke up this morning he said that he'd had a bad dream. I asked him what it was about and he told me, "a skeleton was coming out of there," by which he meant his closet. I really hope he doesn't have skeletons in his closet. He's only four and quarter.
He also heard a bit of classical music today and said he didn't like it. He said sometimes bad songs are written by good guys. That's very true. But I think the opposite is true more often.
Ike doesn't have a huge vocabulary but he can now add "diarrhea" to his lexicon. And more than a few diapers.
He also says, "k?" As in okay. A lot. After every sentence. Like Joe Pesci in Lethal Weapon 2.

From Here to Saturn
In order to quote every precious thing Harry says these days I'd have to put a wire on him. Since he doesn't even like the tags on the back of his shirts, taping a mic to his chest isn't an option, so here's a quick sampling:
We were playing Crazy 8's and I told him that when he holds his cards in his hand it's called a fan. He told me, "it's also called a full housin'."
He told me the bad guy on Batman is called the "Judger." I had a hard time deciphering that one but eventually figured he meant the Joker. He said, "Yeah, the Joker, 'cause he's always telling everyone funny jokes." Personally, I think the Judger would be a cooler bad guy than the Joker.
He also asked Rach if when we got married we went out and hugged and kissed each other. Which we did.
In a particularly circular bit of logic, he said he likes his new babysitter Joanna. Why? Because she likes when he shows her how to use his leapfrog, which he likes to do so he likes her and she likes him.
Best of all he said he loved mommy so much he loved her from here to Saturn. Me too, Mommy.
Ike's working on his counting these days: "One, two, seven... nine... seven! Blast off!"
He also thinks all sports on TV are soccer. So during the World Series, he would say, "Daddy Soccer?"
He's also got all the foods down that the Very Hungry Caterpillar ate on Saturday: "chocake (chocolate cake), i-cree (ice cream), pickul (pickle), cheese (obvious), mami (salami), lolpop (obvious, too), pis cher pa (piece of cherry pie), sachich (sausage, my fav), cucake (cupcake) pis wamella! (piece of watermellon!)" Then he rounds it out with his impersonation of a caterpillar with a stomach ache: (face scrunched) ooooh!
