A minute into dancing to @nicoleatkins w/ my 5 yr old, he whispers "let's dance" in my ear. Not sure where he gets his lines!

Sex talks & the Number 2

2011-03-01T12:17:00.000-08:00

Ian has been asking a lot of detailed questions about sex the last few days.

A bit awkward for us at times but totally great that he feels like he can

ask us these types of questions.

After last night's barrage of inquiries, Berr asked his own. While standing

in the kitchen with his hands in his pants he asked where pee comes from.

Upon hearing the answer he asked, why is there a little ball next to the

penis?

Jon said: their should be two.

Berr, in his belligerent / I'm always right tone, said: no. Nuh-on!

Then after another second with his hands in his pants he said: oh. Yeah.

two.

Just another warm day in the Castro

"dad, that guy is naked! Except his socks and shoes... and backpack!" in a not very surprised voice.

Plan for construction

2011-01-15T13:51:00.001-08:00

We were talking about how to deal with where to put everything during construction at our house when Berr offered:

"I have a really good idea. How about if we build a rocket and move all of our stuff into the rocket and live in outer space?"

And of course we all agreed that was a very good idea.

Robots

2011-01-13T18:52:00.001-08:00

After a few minutes of chatting at the dinner table:
Berr: I like talking with you Dad.
Dad: yeah? Is there anything else you want to talk about?
Berr: can you tell me how to build a robot?

I'm an astronaut.

2010-06-10T15:18:00.001-07:00

Berr wears his astronaut suit at least twice a week. It is his go-to outfit. So it was fitting that he wanted to wear it to his pre-school graduation ceremony. As we were eating breakfast before the ceremony, Berr was in the bathroom. I heard him talking to himself...He said, "I'm an astronaut, and no body knows it!"

A Dream

2010-04-22T11:40:00.000-07:00

I saw a BIG BEAR! And I could even ride on him! And I asked him to
take me here and he did!

Heartbreaker

2010-03-22T21:53:00.001-07:00

Berr was just in bed having a freakout cuz I wouldn't read and then
was crying "stay here! I don't want you to go away from me yet
daddy!". Breaking my heart

Circle of destruction

2009-12-09T10:11:00.001-08:00

Berr got a bit upset last night. Spent 30 minutes destroying books. Then got up and had a snack.

A little while later, when he calmed down, Ian, Berr and I were talking about ways that we can be mad and not be mean. I was talking about what I do when I get emails from people that make me mad. I had paused in my description, "When I get those emails, I..." Berr injected, "Cry like a baby?" Then he added, "Me cry like a baby sometimes."

Except...

2009-10-28T20:17:00.001-07:00

Berr: I like you Mom.
Mom: I like you too Berr.
Berr: Except when you tell me what to do.

"Me farty boy."

2009-06-08T11:40:00.000-07:00

This is from grandpa:
The other night I was sitting on the couch with Berr who had lots of gas. After four or five rather loud ones he looked at me, and with an impish grin said, “Me farty boy”.

Berr Plays air guitar.

Giving time

2009-05-22T08:13:00.001-07:00

Berr: can we watch a movie tonight?

Dad: Maybe. It depends if you guys do everything you need to do and
we'll see if we have time.

Berr: I have time.

Dad: You do huh?

Berr: Yeah, see. I'll give you some. *throwing sound*. There, now you
have time too.

Dad: Thanks buddy.

Berr's toilet protest

2009-05-03T20:06:00.000-07:00

Berr has decided he doesn't want to be potty trained. In protest, he locked down the toilet in scotch tape.
