Marcus took vacation days most of this week and last night around 3 am, Pito woke up and instead of just coming into our bed...he layed there for a while and kept saying, "Mommy, Daddy, can I come into your bed?" and finally I got up and went in his room to help him into our bed and as soon as he laid down, he kept saying he wanted a waffle. I told him he had to wait until morning and right now it was time to sleep. (Which did not work because he kept it up every 5 minutes.) Marcus finally took him out to the couch so I could get some rest since I had to get up for work this morning. When they got out there, Marcus made him a waffle and let him know that after he finished his waffle, he didn't want to talk to him again until morning light. So, Pito went back to sleep and when he woke up...he started talking to Marcus and said, "Daddy, talk to me now - it's light outside!" It's painful to go without much sleep sometimes but man I love that kid!
Then today, he said "Daddy Macneto" because I always call him, Pito Macneto and Marcus said you can't call me Daddy Macneto, it doesn't rhyme so he started saying, "Daddy McFatty." (At least he knows how to rhyme.) :)
The other day, Marcus came home for lunch and he was getting ready to leave and Pito didn't want him to go...Marcus said I have to go make money so I can buy you more waffles and Pito said, "I'll eat toast everyday." He has said this to me before too. :( That just about broke our hearts, now I understand why Marcus' mom gave her notice at work when Marcus was little and asked when he was going home and he was talking about the babysitter's house!
