Paxton and I were hanging out at home last week. While I was getting a few things done, he was happily playing with his toys. He usually babbles a lot, but I heard him counting (or what sounded like counting), so I looked behind me to see that he had put his stuffed dinosaur in the timeout spot with him facing the wall. Paxton counted to ten, picked up the dinosaur, told him to say sorry, then said, 'Mama, bad boy'. I was cracking up! This kid picks up on everything, such a smart boy! Luckily, I was able to get the last part of his timeout routine on video.
This dinosaur has become Pax's best friend. He asks for his 'mitodore' (aka dinosaur, lol!) all the time. He will put him in his cozy coupe truck and push him around. I've even found him sitting in Paxton's desk. And when it's time to eat, he will push his dino to the side so he can sit with him.
