It's Ah-Fish-Al


Eric is in the "repeat-the-same-word-one-hundred-times" phase and it's driving me insane.  After he's said it the first dozen times, I'll respond and say "yes!  It's a _____" - at which point he gets MORE excited and continues to repeat it louder.  Being sick this week has shortened the amount of patience I have, and the word "OKAY!" has become quite common in the house.  Okay as in "enough already!!  PLEASE SHUT UP!"  It has also become a word Eric likes to repeat a dozen times.  "ok, ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok...."
Today he was running around the house repeating the word "blanket".  "blah, blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...."  I said, "Yes!  It's a blanket!"  But he kept it up.  So I said "Eric you are driving me crazy!!!"  To which he responded "okaaay".  This amused me.  So I said, "Well ok then.  It's official.  You've driven your mom crazy."  At which point he took off hollering, "fish! fish! fish! fish! fish!  fish!"
uggggggghhhhhh.  I need a nanny and some sudafed.  Or maybe I can find a way to make the sudafed work for both of us.......
