The Poor Cutie: A Nathan Chronicle

We got the kids a Wii for Christmas. We all love it. The kids can all play it and they actually can all do well at it. For any of you who don't know what it is, it is a game system different than any of the others. It's main difference, is the fact that you aren't sitting on your bum trying to beat the next level. There are games you can buy for it that are like that, but the games we play are bowling, baseball, tennis, golf, and boxing. We have four remotes, so half our family can play at a time. And the games move pretty quickly, so you aren't waiting forever to play. And the watching is almost as much fun as the playing. There is always a lot of cheering and laughing.

We recently let the kids watch Pirates of the Caribbean for the first time. So, when Nathan gets a strike in bowling, he gets a little upset. He prefers 'sparrows' (you know, Jack Sparrow....lol)

Nathan came to me very upset one day. He was crying hysterically...

Me: Nathan, what's wrong?
Nathan:Tyler tookted away Casey's candy!
Me: Were you getting into it?
Nathan: No. I was sneaking.



At least he's honest.

Last year, I was part of a cooking club. We met monthly and exchanged recipes, but mostly we socialized. I looked forward to our get togethers, and apparently it made quite the impression on Nathan.

When he is upset at me or somebody else, he says, "Fine! Your not in my cooking cwuv, then!"


And when he is especially liking you, he'll say, " You can be in my cooking cwuv. I'm the cuko."

Nathan came down the stairs with wet pants yesterday...



Me: Why are your pants wet?
Nathan: I was baking.
Me: (a little puzzled, but mostly worried...) What were you baking?



He takes me to the table where I find this:
