Tootles' Thoughts: July 2006

once upon a time...

I had a special treat today. Today was a day to eat out! For lunch after my nappie, I had some mehicano food with Ninang Voodoo, and owse cream! Dinner, I was with a lot my Aunties and Uncles for more yummy in my tummy food. And owse cream. AGAIN!

Thanks to Uncle Marines and Auntie Army, they bought ME 4 tubs of owse cream! And...I got to stay way-way past bedtime to play with Kuya Diego. The bestest part of the night was when Uncle Tattle-Tale read us a story, Walter, the Farting Dog. He was making funny noises and even showed us the pictures during storytime. I wished he finished though. But he started watching t.v. so he stopped reading. That's okay though. I learned that even if my butt-butt's stinky, Mums and Pops love me.

And I can't forget my Happy Birthday present from Uncle and Auntie Kitty Lover. They gave a kewl pinano piano I can step on! It makes the same noise as Pop's pinano, but it also can sound like the ow-ow dog. Thank you Uncle and Auntie Kitty Lover!

the bestest ride eva!

I was invited to a berfday party at Chachy's Chuck.E.Cheese. It was during my second nappy time, but lately I've been getting by with only one. Mums and Pops thinks my nappies are changing - but then I'll have those days where I will need two nappies.

I've been more daring and "boyish" - as Mums says. Like at Chachy's I played my first games and rode my first rides. So much fun! I really like this game where it gives you a lot of balls and then I can walk to this net and throw the ball! Whew! Then after a couple balls, this little piece of paper comes out.

It was so exciting. There were other kiddies like me, and a bunch of noise and lights. And the coolest part. I traded the two pieces of paper for a ball. A ball! I love balls!

sharing is caring

So Mums and I went to my favorite wanna-be Gymboree - the play zoo in front of the Red Dot store in Tan-4-N. I like it sometimes and I don't like it sometimes. When there's big kids playing and jumping around like they own the play zoo, I don't like it. When it's just us wee ones, I like it.

Funny thing we saw. I never got the taste of Mum's boobies, but I've seen it. And this time I really saw it. I mean really, REALLY!

Okay, first the green smiley face lady was giving her baby her booby, right? I guess her baby was superly-duperly hungry. Why? Because, because the green smiley face lady gave her baby (or someone's baby) to the red smiley face lady and SHE gave the baby her booby! I know!!! I guess most teeny-weeny babies are really hungry...right?

Well, Mums started freaking out, but in a quiet way and only to me. She even had to call Auntie Duckie to tell her about it. And now they were both screaming on the phone. Mums...they're just silly at times.

But I wonder...I wonder if the red smiley face lady had a good tasting booby for the baby to have a taste of it.

I wonder...I wonder why she didnt' share her booby with the other babies.

I wonder...

victim of something-ism

Mums and I had an early start this morning. We had to go to the bank to deposit my berfday checks, then the post office to mail my Thank You cards.

Our first stop to the bank didn't go very well. There are checks in my name, Tootles, but I don't have an account. So...they wouldn't take my checks. So...Mums needed to open an account with my name before the bank can save it for me. Mums answering questions, the lady is typing whatever Mums says - talk, type, talk, type, talk, type. You get it, right?

"I'll need a form of I.D. Do you have his social security card?"

"No, but I have his California I.D. card as a form of I.D."

"Really? I've never seen this. Do they let little kids have an I.D. card?"

"Why not? It's an I.D. card, right? All the information you need to verify it's him is on that card. It's legal. I took him to the DMV for it."

"*giggling* He's so cute. He has more hair. *more giggling* But I don't think we can accept it because we normally use their social security card."

"But if I was to open a new accout, would you need my social security card or driver's license?"

"Your driver's license would be fine."

"Then why can't you accept his California license? It shouldn't matter if he drives or not. You're just verifying it's him. The card number is on top like any other license."

"*looking stooooopid* Aw, our computer system only takes social security cards for minors."

"That's okay, I'll open an account at another branch."

Mums was pretty upset at the giggling lady. She says they excrimimate discriminated me Ageism .

boom boom day

Went on a ficnic today for Boom Boom Day. I like being outside, but I think I was outside waaaaay too long today. And it was super-duper freezing cold for me. It didn't help I had the sniffles and cough, but I was a good boy. After my nap Mums and Pops took me to ride on some of the carnival rides - choo choo train and fire truck.

Today was the first time I got to watch all the Booms. I was sooooo tired, but couldn't keep my eyes off the pretty lights - all different colors. I wasn't even scared of the boom sound! Pops made it even more fun by singing songs during all the Booms. I can't wait for the next Boom Boom Day.

I also saw more horses today! Different ones...

...a pointy ear horsie...
