My Little Butter Boy

One of Nate's favorite sounds to make is "Geeee!!"  He's made this happiness-indicating sound since he started making any sounds that weren't crying (so very early on).  The hubby and I always repeat it back to him when he says it, which makes him laugh and say it again.  (I love this.)

Every Friday I go to my parents' house to do laundry and, of course, take Nate with me.  This week my parents and I were marvelling at how big Nate got since it was the day after his four month pediatrician appointment.

At one point Nate exclaimed, "Geeee!" with joy and my mother laughs and says, "You know what ghee is, right?  Clarified butter?"

Oh. My. Goodness.  I did know that but I didn't think of it!  So all this time Nate's been asking for butter?  Did my womb have a Paula Deen channel?

For the record, he also gives huge smiles for the word "pierogi."  That's my little 1/4 Ukie boy.

I mean, look at these cheeks.  And those chubby feet.  And those thighs.

He is definitely helping himself to pierogi with extra butter when no one's looking.
