To Dunk or Not to Dunk

Some people enjoy dunking food in their beverages. Whether it is dipping oreos in milk or donuts in coffee, these people enjoy the combination of liquid and solid food. We call these people dunkers.

Some people do not enjoy dunking food in their beverages. These people prefer the natural flavors of the solid foods and wet beverages independently. We call these people purists.

When Tommy was born, we wondered if he would be a dunker or a purist. Today we found our answer. The answer was not found in the kitchen or the dining room as one would expect. We found out in the bathroom. This morning when we were enjoying our tea, we noticed our little destructo was hanging out in the bathroom. Wondering what he was doing, we went to investigate. We walked in to see him enjoying his graham cracker with toilet water. That's right he was dipping his cracker in the toilet water and then eating it.....and that's how we discovered he was a dunker.

On another note, it has been getting cold here lately. Here are a couple of pics of Tommy getting ready for winter.

Live Action Role Playing

Amy and Joe went to the movies this weekend. They saw Role Models and highly recommend it. The movie is an inspirational story about 2 men helping 2 troubled youths. Ultimately, they win the children's respect by participating in a Larping (Live Action Role Playing) event.

After the movie Amy and Joe discussed whether or not Tommy will LARP with his friends in the future. Amy said she would make Tommy a cape if he needed a cape to LARP. Joe said he would teach Tommy a couple of good cheap shots (aka biting and kicking to the nads) to use during a Larping event.

For those wondering what Larping looks like....check out the video.

We really do try to give him healthy food (avocado, cheese, ham, banana, organic whole milk, etc).....he just chooses to eat the bad stuff
