Obsessed.......

Christian has a few new obsessions. Chocolate and money. The whole time we were visiting gma and gpa Cromwell for Christmas all you would hear Christian say was, "Chocwate," and "Money." He loves to play with grandma's Disneyland bank. He takes all the money out and loves to put it back in the bank because it will play music. Well, he also just likes to carry around the money and play with it. Every person he sees he will tell them what he has or if he finds more money he loves to come show you and just say, "Look, money, money." Over and over again. He also loved playing with all the pirate money grandma had. He would just carry around hand fulls of it all day long. At nap or bed time you had to pry it from his hands and say the money had to go nite, nite too! He was satisfied with that answer but as soon as he woke up he would ask where the money was. So funny!

We have gotten so many treats for Christmas and even the chocolate Christmas countdown every day has Christian accustomed to asking for "chocwate" all day long and every day for that matter. If he sees it out on the counter he drags a chair over to the counter and tries to get at it. He knows where it is hiding up in the cupboard and won't give up asking until he gets a piece. Most of the time I give in but when that's all he is asking for even over regular food it gets to be a bit much. So occasionally we do have to say no and that brings out the whining and the crying and the tantrums. Its a little ridiculous but cute at the same time. Hopefully we can ween him off before he becomes diabetic :)

Our candy cupboard

"CANDY"

Unwrapping it all by himself

Popping the whole thing in his mouth

He loves to get the chocolate and take the wrappers off all by himself and if you try and help he gets really mad. He does a good job putting the wrappers in the garbage too. He usually pops the whole piece in his mouth and takes his time eating it. He loves his chocwate!
