Ellie the Mammoth

Will's current obsession: Ice Age 3, Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Like the first two, it's a pretty funny movie; enough of adult humor to keep me entertained. And I find it especially humorous when my 3 year old runs up to me and says,
"My paws are on fire baby! Oooo, I gotta tip-toe, tip-toe."
Granted, it's much more entertaining in person... but I don't care who you are, that's funny!

The man also enjoys role-playing and will sometimes refuse to break character for hours on end. We had a pretty good run with Peter Pan. He, of course, was Peter and I got to be Wendy. Several times a day he would announce,
"Neverland is a wonderful place, I will take you there!"

But after watching Ice Age 3 eighteen times in two days, Neverland is a thing of the past. Now he is Diego the Saber-Toothed Tiger! And appropriately, I get to be Ellie the Woolly Mammoth. I've openly admitted that I've gotten quite large during this pregnancy, but I wasn't exactly ready to embrace Mammoth status. Leave it to a 3 year old to call it like he see's it.
