Santa Parade

Saturday night was the Santa parade, and boy did Chippy have fun!  There were fire trucks, motorcycles, monster trucks, big rigs, police cars and busses.  Chippy waved at everyone and generally seemed to be in awe of the lights and the steady stream of vehicles!

Chippy had a dentist appointment today where he managed to get one tooth cleaned!  They confirmed that all molars are in - so now Chippy has to start flossing.  We went to the grocery store after his app't and Wee M and Chippy sat together in the buggy.  Can't say it was a resounding success, but no one was crying when we left!

Chippy's favourite toy right now is his scissors!  He uses them every day, usually telling me 'I'll be right back' before going to get them out of his drawer.  He uses them to cut practically everything he can - from cereal boxes to cardboard boxes, to food, to colouring books.  He also likes to have a knife with his dinner.  He is the official cutter for Wee M's food - cutting her grapes and other fruit into smaller pieces.  He's not much into sharing with Wee M right now.  I've asked a couple times recently if he'd share his little elf snack with her and eventually, if she's lucky, he'll break off a teeny, tiny little corner and say that it's for her.  :)
