Oliver's Interview with Mommy

Oliver is 3 years and 4 months old. He's getting much better at answering questions, so I decided to ask him what some of his "favorites" are. This is what he had to say.

Favorite video? Barney (Barney Pajama Party)

Favorite iPad game: Bad Piggies

Favorite color: pink

Favorite stuffed animal: Monkey

Favorite food: yogurt

Favorite appliance: the mixer

Favorite fruit: strawberries

Favorite number: "I'm 3, and Jo's 1."

What do you want to be when you grow up? "First, I'm going to fix computers. Then, I'm going to drive a train. Then, I'll be a nurse."

Isn't Pig Won't Naughty?

Aunt Julie bought Oliver a book last Christmas called, "Isn't Pig Won't Naughty?" Andrew and I enjoyed reading it to him while making different voices for "Pig Will" and "Pig Won't." It has now moved up the list to being his favorite book. If Oliver and I are playing in his room, he'll crawl over, grab it off the shelf and hand it to me, saying, "More!" I'll read it once, declaring, "The End!" when it's over. He hands it back and shouts, "More!" Rinse and repeat five times.

Oliver woke up at 5am this morning and played with Dad. At 6am, Andrew brought him to me to nurse. Oliver fell asleep in our bed next to us for an hour. When he woke up, he immediately crawled out of our bed and over to the stack of books on the floor from the night before. He selected, "Isn't Pig Won't Naughty?" and handed it to me. In case that wasn't a strong enough hint, he said, "More." I read it six times before Andrew was able to distract him enough to keep me from having to read it a seventh.
