Vroom, Vroom

We noticed during our little trip that Bubeaner really, and we mean REALLY, likes cars even though he doesn't have any toy cars at home.  He found some toy cars at Bita's that he refused to put down.  And when he visited his little cousins, he immediately started playing with them.  Even Grandma found him some of Dad's old Matchbox cars.  He loved them. 

So it should not have come as a surprise the he LOVES his little coupe.  He adores it.  He can't make it go anywhere yet, but he demands to be in it all the time.  Yesterday, he was in it every moment we allowed him honking the horn, turning the steering wheel, and making vroom vroom noises.  He even gave Meme'Licia a nasty look when she tried to get him out, and it was to give him lunch!  Bubeaner gives up everything for food... at least, that used to be the case.  (Dad insists that's Momma's look when she's angry.)


Bubeaner has also taken on a new, not-appreciated-by-Momma habit.  He insists on calling out Momma's first name!  It's now been two days in a row that he insists on using it.  It is understandable considering he heard many people call Momma that during the last two weeks.  He thinks it's funny.  If he wasn't so cute...

On some great news, Bubeaner slept 12.5 hours straight last night.  He's been sleeping longer during the night which is what Dr. Z recommended.  Unfortunately, we are still working out the daytime naps.  It appears he's slowly working towards a single 2-3 hour midday nap.  But in the mean time it leaves a cranky sleepy boy during the day.

try not responding when he calls you your first name. That and sternly saying no (without smiling, that's the hard part) will probably change his habit.
I'm impressed though, mine didn't try that until they were at least two and almost three.
