Tracen

Tracen is such a funny kid. I usually laugh at him at least once a day. Backyardigans is a favortie show at our house and because of this we have a couple of thier DVDs. We have one of them at Chad's shop so he can be entertained while we are working. Well, one of the episodes is about a race around the world and there is a song (of course) that says "Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!" and so on. When that part came on he would run as fast as he could around the huge table in the middle of the floor. It was funny. Then we were asking him who wins the race and he proceeded to tell us that it is Austin and he has to cut the ribbon at the end. Well, the next thing I know Tracen has found tape and cut a big piece off. He had one end stuck to a big plastic bin and the other end stuck to his brother's bouncer (Myles was not in the bouncer at the time). Then he would run a little ways around the table, then sort of glide across the floor and say he was snowboarding, then sit on the floor and pretend he was rowing, then run again- these are the things the characters have to do in the race on the show. Once he got to the tape he had strung up, he grabbed the scissors he had placed convenently on the big bin and cut the tape and declares "I won! I won!" It was the cutest thing and it made me laugh. I am so glad that he has such a great imagination.

The other cute thing that makes me smile every time is when he says "addition". We have been working our addition for quite some time and everytime we say we have to work he assumes it's on the addition. Only he says "ma dition" It is cute every time and never gets old.
