..because..

  • conjunction
  • definition - for the reason that; due to the fact that
  • pronunciation by a two year old: be-pohz


EVERY meal with Isaac goes a little something like this:

"oh look. I did it. that was fun. hmm, it's empty? just like that?" Look how happy he is that he's dumped his bowl out... And not just on his high chair tray - rest assured that there is plenty of soup on the floor and the other chairs, and his cup of water (he refuses a "sippy-cup") has been dumped over the side and thrown across the kitchen

He looks up to see me looking at him, "there she goes again. on and on about not throwing my food. blah blah blah..."

"hurry. look cute so she doesn't get too mad this time."

Then, when I turn around to get a paper towel or washcloth or ... hose, I hear the unmistakeable sound of Zac's bowl being thrown across the kitchen to land somewhere near his cup. When I look back at him he gives me this look like, "who me?" or maybe it's more like, "whatchya gonna do about it?" I'm not sure....

3 meals and 2 snacks a day
7 days a week
Will this ever end?!

The other day when I asked him, "WHY do you think you always have to throw your food?" I wasn't expecting an answer. But I got one. He gave me his best innocent look and said,
"Be-Pohz". Well then, that explains it....

Oh my gosh, that would drive me nuts! At least you probably don't have CARPET under your table like us. I love how he says because. He's so cute!

I love this post. It's exactly how it is with Cambel, who happens to be the same age as Isaac. Only Cambel smiles this HUGE smile, it's so hard to get mad... that's his red-handed look. I loved this because of how creative you are in putting it together, it was like a magazine spread...
