daddy, momma, and you

Meet Graham's playmobil family. Momma and Daddy are obvious, but don't overlook "You" in the middle.

It started a while back with the bathroom mirror. See, Matt always makes G's hair crazy with the shampoo as he washes it. We would then hold up a mirror and say "look Graham, it's you!"

Then he just started saying "you, you" when Matt would wash his hair pointing to the little hand mirror. We thought that maybe this "you" only lived in the bathroom mirror.

And now we have his little family. We pulled out the playmobil when Jackson came home as sort of a "quiet activity" that could keep G occupied when we didn't want to watch Toy Story one.more.time. It has been a huuuge hit. This guy loves some small toys. But then he started talking about them by their names: Momma, Daddy, and You. The little boy's name is officially You. Always calls him You. He actually lined them up in the above picture and was so proud of himself. Notice that You is in the middle, ha. They always have on the same hats (which he calls "shats") and they always sit on the same horses. Everything is always about being the same. Graham loves the same.

We just had to make sure this little G-ism was documented before he outgrew it!
