He calls the color white "coconut" and it's so dang cute I just can't correct him. What color are your eyes? Mason: "um, blue and coconut." And his trooper helmet? Also coconut and perfectly pronounced. Love it and love him. All started with Christian requesting the white Jelly Bellys which are coconut flavored. Too funny.
He's obsessed with "twoopers" - Star Wars Clone Troopers - and he carries at least 3 lego troopers in his pocket everywhere he goes - to bed, to swimming lessons, the store, you name it. He bites their heads off when they fight the bad guys, they must have a gun or sword in their hands at all times and he talks about everything Star Wars all day long - definitely a little obsessive. Shouldn't he be into Elmo or Thomas the Train?? He's only 2 and 1/2 for crying out loud!
He has marathon conversations with himself in bed at night (we're taking a good hour and half). "What happened to Darth Vader? I forgot what Luke Jedi Knight do to his father? I like Captain Rex and Commander Cody and Boba Fett..." It's like he's talking to someone and he'll even answer his own questions. I guess his big brother is partly to blame for his extensive Star Wars knowledge. He knows every character's name and who flies which ships. It's hilarious. Then he'll bust out singing the Star Wars theme song. Piece of work. Almost daily Troy and I look at each other and ask "where did he come from?"
And Mason the BULLY, that's a whole other post...he is constantly teasing his brother, cousins and random kids we come across. I wonder how many parenting books exist on "how to raise a bully" or "when you're child is the bully." Guess I better start doing some research.
He sure is a cute bully though.

I love it! Don't even think about correcting him. Coconut sounds so much more interesting and exotic.
