Casper always insists on “helping” with the groceries. Usually there will be things that he likes and he will help himself, much to my dismay seeing as he makes a God awful mess when he gets it by himself, however, I love him and he is so stinking cute that I usually just deal with it. He does NOT approve of my shopping list today. I made the horrible mistake of only buying apples and bananas when he clearly wanted grapes and peaches. If I would have brought home peaches and grapes he would have wanted apples and bananas. He's like a kid. You just can't win.
Me – Want a banana?
Casper – No (in my husband's voice) Want a peach? (in my voice)
Me – Want an apple?
Casper – No. Want a peach. (in my husbands you're getting on my nerves voice) – notice the period at the end of his request for a peach instead of the question mark the first time.
Me – We don't have any peaches.
Casper – has a long conversation that goes back and forth between my voice and my husbands, talking very fast and mumbling so that I can't fully understand him.
Casper – FINE – (in my 12 year old daughters “I'm pissed at you” voice.)
Casper – Want a cookie? (oh crap. I didn't buy him peanut butter crackers which he calls cookies)
Me – We don't have any cookies Casper.
He walks over to the grocery bag on the table that he hasn't thoroughly searched yet and sees that there are cookies that he can't have because they are chocolate.
Casper – WHAT THE HELL!!! Can you see the pissed off look he is giving me?
I think I am bribing the bird too often now that I am trying to work on school papers. There are days that I am struggling to keep my head above water and just overwhelmed with the world and he can make me laugh when no one else could. I love him. I ended up convincing him that he would enjoy a spoon with peanut butter on it dipped in parakeet seed. He actually seemed to really like it.
