View Full Version : More proof that I'm a total freakin' geek

On weekends, daddy takes over primary care-giver status for his little girl. Last weekend, I was trying to get my little one to eat her breakfast. After several mouthfuls, she simply refused to have anymore (she wanted her bottle instead). Apparently she has inherited her father's obstinance, because we went round and round for the better part of an hour with her refusing to eat, and I refusing to let her out of her chair.
As I sat there, spoon in hand, with her sitting in her high chair glowering back at me, the line came to me and I couldn't resist.
"And now, Princess, we will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base."
She started to giggle when I made the droid's "wow-wow-wow-wow-wow..." sound. Naturally, that's when I jammed the spoon into her mouth.

So its begins :-)
Of course you will be unable to resist this interchange in all its forms.. daddy is the first man a girl gets to practice on :-)
Cheers,
Lara (and daddy's little girl even now...)

My 7 yr. old is becoming a Pokemon geek. She's a girl. Should I worry?
I don't even understand Pokemon.

My 7 year old son is a Pokemon expert. He could use a girlfriend. :)

Oh, please not yet. About a third of her 1st grade class last year was obsessing on which boy they liked or wanted to marry. It was too crazy!

I can relate to that. My 4 year old daughter practically wants to marry every boy she meets. That's not a good sign. :eek:

Ach! Tell me about it. Isabella is only 10 months old, and she's already a flirt. Whenever we go somewhere, she smiles and waves at every male (man or boy) that she sees. Of course, she'll smile at females too, but only after they've come up and made goofy with her - she doesn't go out of her way to attract their attention.

It only gets scarier.
My son went on his first date in 2nd grade. He took his girlfriend to Red Lobster for dinner. He asked my husband and me to "double date" with them, but he asked the waiter for separate checks, and he paid for their meals himself. There's something wrong with a double date where the other couple amuse themselves by coloring the children's menu.
And not to get off the original thread topic...I think we are all geeks or we wouldn't be a part of this forum. Anytime I need proof of my geekness, I just remember that my son's name is James Tiberius.

LOL! That is a cute story, Necron.
Just wait til she becomes more stubborn....then you'll be saying: "Her resistance to the food probe is considerable. It'll be some time before we get her hooked on veggies." :D
