* I don't love you (if we say love you to him)
* I don't like you
* Leave me alone!
* That's mine
* No way punk (as he giggles)
* Your mean!
I know he doesn't know what he is saying is mean so I don't take it personally. I remind him that's not nice. He has started Pre-K this year since he missed the kindergarten cut off by a little over 2 weeks! He goes to school 3 days a week 4-5 hours a day. He has learned some phrases and words at school that we quickly nipped in the butt. The one that really shocked us was "I hate you". He said it to my father in law on the phone. That is the first and last time he said it too. We told him that is not a nice word and we don't say hate.
When we told him I was having a baby he started telling everyone he was having a baby brother. We would say what if your having a sister? In a very dead serious annoyed tone he would shoot back with "I'M HAVING A BABY BROTHER!!!!!!" So when we found out we were having another boy I think Kristoffer thought "I told you so". We have taken him to both ultrasounds, all but the first Dr appt (cause I had to get the physical done) and pretty much all the shopping we have done for the baby. He likes to pick out stuff for HIS baby. According to Kristoffer his brother's name will be Baby Brother. That's his whole name.
I thought he already went through the terrible 2's but I guess that was nothing. He is getting so much more independent lately. I kinda miss him needing me for everything. Some days I wish it was 8pm so he could go to bed. Here's our convo just about everyday:
K: Mom what time is bed?
Me: 8 o'clock
K: No mom it's 20 o'clock
Well in military time 20 o'clock is 8pm. I just think that is funny. He wants to be 6 now. Before he turned 5 he would tell everyone he was 9 or 10. He's our silly Kristoffer.
We had Kristoffer's 5th birthday party at LeRoy Haagen Park. Apparently we picked a very popular time to have it cause the main part of the park was PACKED. So we went to the little one in the back. We had it all to ourselves which was nice. The night before when we made his cupcakes I asked Kristoffer if he want to split one. He said "No they are for my birthday party tomorrow!" I made his spiderman cake I think I did an ok job. It was warm that day so the frosting was starting to melt. He wanted a red web cake and blue frosted cupcakes.
Well I had my first "that child" experience. I took Kristoffer to JcPennys to get his pics done. After trying 3 times over a 90 minute period I gave up. He was in the mood he wasn't gonna have his pics done. So finally I dragged him out of the store screaming, throwing himself down and hitting my arm. The appalled and disbelief look people give is amazing. Kristoffer is well behaved 99% of the time especially in public. So I think I will just wait til the baby is 6 weeks old and do family pics. Mike will be there so hopefully I will get a solo pic of Kristoffer.
