Brilliant!<BR/><BR/>I love the "right now" command. Just wait-- before long he'll be giving you the other parental imitation-- "just a minute". <BR/><BR/>So funny about the "one parent's literal mindedness and respect of limits" and the other parent's "McGuyver orientation".

PLEASE tie the cord so it's too short for him to reach. I hate picturing him getting his neck caught in it!!<BR/><BR/>I love all his little comments.

Owen actually plays Nathan's super old school Nintendo that only works 50% of the time. If you will look at the pic again, you will see that the picture is totally scrambled, and they are still playing the game happily. LOL. It kills me. And luckily it's no longer cool enough fro my husband to ever want to play it, because then we would be in serious trouble.Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15963649884147164007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3456712940068282759.post-64521628360434079812009-02-19T09:41:00.000-07:002009-02-19T09:41:00.000-07:00so funny to hear these stories about Oliver.
