Pow! Zap!

Z is on a Batman kick lately {he still loves Star Wars, but Batman is creeping up on the list fast}. First, he wakes up in the morning and insists we call him Batman, then Nick is to be called Robin (also known as “my brother Robin”). His batman pajamas double as his “invisible suit,” our car is the “batmovile,” Lu is wonder woman (don’t know where that fits in), and I’m batgirl. I think the love originated with his new Lego Batman game for his DS. He’s been insisting we call him batman and the other day he said, “it’s hard, hard to be batman.” He’s also been coughing a lot lately (all of us have), and after a particularly long spell, he declared “I think Batman’s not feeling too well.”

We’ve even been letting him watch the old school episodes of Batman, since they are on Amazon Instant Video.

Meanwhile Lu is just along for the ride. She still follows him around a lot, and when he’s not around she says his name and goes over to his little PB chair. They have been playing together more but also fighting more. Believe me, it’s not just him messing with her she does a lot of the messing too!

They went to a Gymboree B’day party this weekend and both had a blast. We were more than a little worn out after it, but it was so great for them! See little sis is always one step behind…

She’s also right there with the big boys when cousin Jude comes to play. I don’t think they liked it too much, but a choice they did not have. They better get used to it too because Missy is not to be left out!

Note she is wearing shoes over her footed pajamas for several reasons but the main one being that the love for shoes is still strong in this girl. She also loves her jackets and coats. I’m thinking accessories are going to be her thing.
