So this is what happens when Mom takes a shower... He is definitely at the age now where I feel comfortable enough to lock the gate upstairs and tell him to play in his room while I take a shower. We turn on his music and he dances and does whatever while I shower (pretty fast). Note: I only shave when I have the extra 5 minutes and Jim is home ;) He's wearing this mask that he got for his birthday, along with a few other dress-up hats, from Aunt Red. We only have the top of this pajama shirt (thanks again to Beth and Grant for all the hand-me-downs!) and the duck bill is from a Duck Tour I took in Boston many years ago. Still works!

Had to tell you, he's said some pretty funny things lately. I don't remember where he saw it, but he was fascinated with this po-go stick he saw. He keeps taking random things (a cone, his train whistle, etc.) and putting them between his legs saying, "Look, Mom! A poe-poe stick!" Ha! We're trying to discourage the reenactment, as who knows what might get accidentally 'poe-poed'. Also, he is always playing with his Mater toy car (from the Cars movie-- he's seen it once but is really into the idea of having cars with eyes, I think; we also have the book and he reads it often). Anyway, he called Mater (the tow-truck) a "hiccup truck"! Ha! Although he fights me some days to go down for a nap, it is clear that he still needs one. Right now he is probably halfway done with his two-hour siesta. Keep 'em coming!
