Skateboarding

Let me start with the back story. About a month ago we were out shopping for Christmas presents in a store and my son saw a skateboard. He says so seriously "Mommy I wanna skateboardie". Mommy replied "Sweetheart you are too small for a skateboard but you can ask Santa and see if he will bring you one!" Well he immediately says "Santa I wanna skateboardie!"
So as many of you know my husband is a pretty big guy he is 6'3" tall so he has pretty big feet. I bet you are wondering what this has to do with a kid wanting a skateboard. I am getting to that. So my husband got some inserts for his shoes recently. He was putting them in his tennis shoes when my son grabs one and runs to the hallway floor puts it down and stands on it like a skateboard and yells out "Mommy I gotta skateboardie!" I had to laugh. Here was my son skateboarding on my husbands shoe inserts and the funny thing was it looked like he was on a skateboard.

UPDATE

Just thought I would take this chance at the beginning of the new year 2008 and do a recap on all of the things my son is doing.
He loves Scooby Doo and the Rescue Heroes. He just got his toddler bed but is still ending up in my bed by the morning. We are still working on the potty training. He will go in the potty but you have to make sure you get him to the potty to use it. He wont ask to go on his own usually. He loves cheetos, fruit snacks, juice boxes, ice cream, chips and queso, pizza, anything with ketchup and scooby snacks. He doesn't use a booster seat. He can drink out of a regular cup but we still give him sippy cups to prevent spillage. He got way too much stuff for Christmas. He loves to give hugs and kisses. He still isn't much for talking on the phone. He likes to sing. (Jingle Bells, Round Round Bus, 5 Little Monkeys, Its Bitsy Spider and the theme song to Scooby Doo) He is fascinated by scissors. He always wants to cut things. Mommy doesn't let him but he tries. He like bubbles and play dough. He likes to run and be chased. He is all boy and likes to fix things. He still hits and kicks but the biting is now few and far between. He is not a big fan of sharing, especially his toys and his food. Right now everything is Pink or Yellow. He loves animals. Esecially dogs and turtles. He is a great kid with lots of love and energy.
