Come on and Barty

Who knew what kind of a mistake it would be to leave the country for a 2-week holiday with a toddler and only 10 High-Five CDs?

Having watched each one of them about 20 times over now and I seriously need to get the High-Five songs out of my head. We have an emergency here. And still every day The Son clamours to watch his "Fie", and does not seem to notice that his parents are trying their best to leave the room while he's watching his "Fie". Sometimes we make the most vulgar jokes about the "Fie" just to pass the time. Like how Charli's husband probably makes her wear the "Ant" getup to bed, that Nathan seems to have traded his hairline for fame, and that the ever expanding Kelly should be the last choice for the "Got to remember to get the food" skit.

Note to self - need to buy more High Five CDs.
Further note to self - no need to overdo it, like you did when you bought 70 bags of chocolate coins.

He can even identify the CDs by their covers. The current favorite is "Come onand Party", except that he still gets the "b" and "p" mixed up. So we get repeat and urgent requests for "Barty". And all little doggies are "Buppies". Just kills me every time.

He seems to have picked up the Asian stomach in Texas. Over the last 30 hours, he drank 60 ounces of infant formula. That's 3 times more than his average daily requirement, and he's still asking for more. Just called to check on him, and he has eaten a bowl of porridge, an entire banana and now wants another 6 ounces of milk. Can't wait to bring him for a real Asian buffet!
