  7. Knows Peter Parker is really Spiderman.
  8. Prefers to wear his underwear backwards so the picture of Spiderman is on the front.

  20. Sometimes fakes a cough to get a teaspoon of honey before bed.
  21. Insists on zipping up his own coat, and buckling himself into his carseat.
  22. Tells the dogs to "walk away" when they try to steal his food (Gypsy is the worst.  She's old and just doesn't care if she gets caught).  Related: calls CEO's dog, Pilgrim, "Wigwam".
  23. Loves pickles.
  24. Believes burping and "pooting" to be the very pinnacle of hilarity.

  28. Thinks all snowmen are "happy".
  29. Can't wait to move up to pre-school so he can play with his buddy, Charlie.
  30. Loves to flush the toilet, but is frequently scared of the flush.
  31. Can be bribed into smiling for a picture if someone faux hits someone else or pretends to throw up (ah, boys).
  32. Is always asking to use mama's "Wapstick" (chapstick).
  33. Says his favorite animal is the "horsey".
  34. Loves books.
  35. Bites his nails.
  36. Uses a blanket as a "pillow" every night.
  37. Is still a little iffy on his colors.
  38. Likes to blow out candles.
  39. Is utterly confused (and angry!) when the moon is up during the day.
  40. Never misses an opportunity to splash in a puddle.
  41. Prefers to eat muffins or waffles in the morning before school.
  42. Will say, "Look, mama!  That's a pretty park over there!" whenever we pass a playground.
  43. Asks to go to the "alley-eat-um" (arboretum), ranch and the "Durango house" constantly.
  44. Fights bedtime with ploys like "I need water", "I need to go to potty" and "I need another hug" every single night.
  45. Always prefers to be outside.
  46. Refers to his home as "Banner's house".
  47. Loves to have his hair brushed at school.  Related:  Has repeatedly told me that he "no like Amelia" and "Amelia no my friend".  Which is hard to understand since Amelia is adorable, very sweet...and well, (a young) two.  I've tried to get to the bottom of it, so much so that he now whispers "I no like Amelia" to himself when he sees her down the hall in the hopes I won't hear it and question him about her again.  I guess you don't have to like everyone in the world, but this is the first time we've added person to the same category as cheese (which the little weirdo also doesn't like). 
  48. Generally wakes up between 6:30 and 7 AM every morning.  No matter if he stays up late the night before or skips his afternoon nap.
  49. Is very stressed out by falling leaves.  Says "Oh, no!" with alarm, and always wants to know what happened and why they fell.
  50. Believes his name to be "Banner Winkle".
