What an incredibly fun age 2 1/2 years old is! I have to tell you, there are some hard times with the "terrible two's", but the trade off is the personality development. I am totally amused with Apollo and his "ism's". The funny things that he chooses to say, the way he says them, and the timing, not to mention the facial expressions that go along with it, are absolutely priceless. It is my goal to capture some of these phrases on video in the next couple weeks, and post them here. Each day brings a new sentence and a new surprise. Some of our favorites right now are: "Dada..."or "mama, I gunna put you to bed!" (in response to being crabby I suppose). "Dada, you need a time out? I go get the chair!" Apollo's "time outs" consist of sitting on top of a bar stool in the middle of the room. He did indeed go and get the chair for me...he must have meant business! "I need a go poop!...again!", and one of my personal favorites; "BRUDDERS!! TURN OFF RADIO!!! RIGHT NOW!!" A nightly ritual as the birds have radio that we turn on for them. When their timer turns the lights off, they will scream incessantly until someone turns off the radio. Apparently the "brudders" (Brothers; Ian and Aden) are completely deaf, because they never hear the birds. Its a good thing that Apollo reminds them.
Oh, there are so many many more. I will save them for video. Speaking of video; as promised, I have posted a video of Apollo dancing on a boat from one of our favorite summer adventures. Apollo loves to dance and loves music that he can dance to. He now has his own playlist on itunes entitled: "Apollo's Happy Songs". He hand picked these songs himself and will ask; "Dada, play happy song?".
This is one of his favorite happy songs. Enjoy!
