Happy Brithday Bug! ^_^

Ok seeing as we forgot to bring our camera to the parties we had with family, these are the only pics you get for now. But this morning he told me, "No eat. Play tools." Don't worry, we got him to eat. It was Berry Colossal Crunch, but hey, at least it was something right??

The second picture isn't all that great as far as his smile goes, but it was the best I could do under the circumstances... he didn't want to stop playing to pose, which is saying something... he loves posing for the camera.

After breakfast, Bug went right back to the tool bench, and Rocket Scientist and I were contemplating his "favorite thing". His first real favorite was "Dumbo", but that lasted only until he saw "Cars". Then that was his favorite, and after that was "Wall-E", probably due in fact by his best friend. As far as movies go though, I'm not really sure what is his favorite now. But all throughout, he has always had some sort of makeshift hammer. I think his first makeshift hammer was one of his Lincoln Logs. Then he got a book for Christmas and it had a little hammer attached to it. It was some sort of pit crew type book, yes "Cars" themed.

Then he decided that his little pretend vacuum cleaner (I actually think it is styled after an old fashioned lawn mower) made a good hammer. We tried to change his views from that though... it was quite loud. Then I found a cool hammer at DI that made cool sounds. Not hammer sounds by any means, but "doink"-like sounds.

Now he has his new tool bench, and he has been playing it all day long. Which is good seeing as we have packed all the rest of his toys. But seriously, I don't think he would have played with them even if they were out for him. It makes me wonder if this will be his passion. Forget cars, trucks, trains, or sports. Tools are the thing for him.
