Breakfast of champions

I was thinking last night about how many cereals Liam doesn't call by their right name. Then I thought about how I haven't done very many posts on "Liamese" like I've done with Carrie-isms. So I'm going to fill you in on breakfast, brought to you by Liam, age almost 3 and a half:

Crackle pops= Rice Krispies
Cocoa pups= Cocoa Puffs
Meenie wheats= Frosted Mini Wheats
Peanut butter kix= Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch
Bee O's= Honey Nut Cheerios
Plain O's= Cheerios
Lellow and brown= Crispix

His favorite color is still yellow, so it goes to follow that his favorite flowers are dandelions and "daffodiws", which we have to say hi to everywhere we see them.

His favorite TV show is still "Lazytown" on Noggin, but he'd like to be a "LELLOW Sporticus" as opposed to blue Sporticus like the original (that, of course, is Carrie's domain).

His favorite underwear are his "blue Batmans" which are exactly like they sound- they are a deep blue with Batman on his bum and a tiny bat on his... well, you know.

He doesn't have a favorite sweet (though yellow lollipops are his favorite kind of lollipop), but surprisingly he wouldn't even try the lemon squares Dada made!

This kid only eats chicken nuggets and breaded fish where meats are concerned. He doesn't even like hot dogs. No burgers. Nothing from the crock pot. And bacon is still iffy. Good thing he likes peanut butter. He'd eat that on anything, I think...

His favorite fruit is still apples, which was his first word. He also likes grapes and mandarin oranges. No watermelon. No bananas. And he used to devour yogurt covered raisins but for some reason he's not even touching those now.

He gets frustrated with spaghetti but loves other, easier-to-stab noodles like ditalini (thank you SO much, MAS, for teaching me about ditalini in college), rotini, elbow macaroni, etc. He doesn't like mashed potatoes. What kid doesn't like mashed potatoes!?

He desperately wants to help make sugar cookies (solely because it'll mean smashing dough with cookie cutters) so I've promised that he can help next time I make them. Hmm. Maybe we should do that this week before it gets hot for the summer...

He will play with Play Doh all morning if I let him, though there will be a suspicious amount of confetti sized Play Doh ALL OVER HIM AND THE CHAIR AND THE FLOOR by the time he is finished.

He DOES NOT like getting water sprayed on him. See here:

Though he would stay in the bathtub forever if you let him. Doesn't even care when the water gets cold.

He'll be 3 and a half the last day of April. I can't believe it. My baby has turned into such a big boy. Feeling very bittersweet about that. Thankfully he still demands, "rock me like a baby", especially when he's wrapped in his towel after bathtime. He's all appendages and kissable cheeks. Hope you guys all get to know my SweetieBoy! =)
