....yes, that's right folks, give a boy a haircut and the whole world shakes.....we've just had spring break so Zak and Mama spent some quality time together getting their hair done, some gardening organized, the car sorted out and various other bits and bobs. Zak also displayed his dancing prowess to Tchaikovsky - the finale is definitely a stunner....and is expanding his singing repertoire which now includes: Happy Birthday, the alphabet song, Twinkle twinkle, Alouette, Frere Jacques and we are working on 'there were 10 in the bed and the little one said...' He does stump Mama with requests for French songs, so guess who is going to have to trawl through MusicMatch????
... in the meantime, Theo puts his fingers in his ears....He continues to do well at school where he loves to push the girls - yes we will need to work on that one - and has gotten quite adept at the old 'kiss and make up'.... ok, so maybe he's smarter than we think. He continues to charm the pants off most while infuriating anyone in authority as he wants everything his brother has, and to do all Zak does;obsesses over cars, trucks and books, often sleeping with all three; and has become a regular jack in the box during the night so that all other members of the family enter the sleep deprivation zone. Needless to say, Theo Poppette is facing a steep learning curve in the realm of consequences for the above actions. He's a courageous walker though, showing impressive will and stamina and is keen to cruise on a bike. He also climbs everything and has recently started to nod his head which is making the communication of desires a tad easier for all....
Dada made himself highly unpopular and took off to Moab for a few days sans Zak, who tried to hide among the luggage while Yann was packing and announced 'Zak conduit' (Zak drives). On the first day Dada was gone, Mama was greeted by both boys smeared head to toe with Theo's butt cream which is waterproof....not to mention the humidifier, the chest of drawers, desk and Theo's bed. An hour later, as Mama took a shower, the boys took a mud bath and gave the patio and back of the house one too..... later that afternoon, Zak took it upon himself to do some laundry, climbing on top of the laundry basket to reach the soap and add as much as possible to the machine to rewash a load just completed. Mama is still rinsing the machine...... can anyone say 'Uncle Bart'???? Watch out Tiger = you're next........
When Dada came back it was time for boys on bikes. Zak very enthusiastically helped Dada clean bikes and then they all went for a spin.... We now have to buy Zak a bigger bike as Theo has decided that he too wants some pedalling fun....
