My baby boy turns 3 tomorrow!

And really, I don't feel a bit sad. Well, that is untrue. He has called me Mom-O ever since he grew out of that baby 'mama' stage....but recently he started just calling me 'Mom' and that sorta makes me sad. Chris takes up for my feelings and corrects Thade, telling him that he is supposed to call my Mom-O. I am not the only person who has gotten a name change though. He changed 'Mamaw' to just plain 'Grandma'. We don't know why. All the other grandkids call Chris' mom, "Mamaw." He also has started calling Stephanie, 'Stephie' half of the time. The other half she is just Sissy. Oh, and sometimes when he is being short with her he will call her 'Tru' in a long and exasperated way like, "Trrrrruuuuuuuuu!" LOL!
I asked him this morning what Sissy was gonna be when she grew up and he said ballerina. Ain't that cute? Then I asked him what he is gonna be when he grows up and he said he was gonna be a cooker. Hahahaha! Yes, I corrected him and said, "Do you mean a chef?" He said, "Yeah." But it was in the 'DUH!' tone of voice. I then asked him if he was gonna have a five star restaurant? He was like, "YEAH! And cook for people!" It amazes me the things he knows about. He told me last night, while we were watching the American Idol try-outs, who sang bad and who sang good. He was only wrong on one person. So, how does my big boy know these things? He astounds me. And I am very proud of him....all the time! Have I told ya'll that he is teaching HIMSELF to read and write?! HIMSELF! Then he turns around and can't sing 'The Itsy Bitsy Spider' or the alphabet without help. I don't understand how he can't remember songs but he is so smart in other areas. Just the way his brain is working I guess.

So, you are thinking to yourself, 'Is she just gonna go on and on about her brat that is fixing to turn 3....or is she gonna post something loom related?' Number one, I could go on and on about my nearly 3yo brat, but that is why I have another blog that is MUCH more protected and that is where I discuss the very personal things about my life. :D Number two, YES I am gonna post something loom related.
